Information Lenore K. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know ahead of time if your pet has any special needs. My dog is friendly, but large sized so I would need for your dog to get along with other dogs (not aggressive).

A typical day

I'm a bit of a home-body so will be spending time with your pet. Regular walks through the neighborhood are a routine and you can count on at least two good walks per day. Play time with my dog in the back yard is likely and, depending on the dog and your desires, I have a fully fenced school yard nearby, that is a regular part of my dog's day.

Caring home for your weekend getawa

Pet care experience

Heading out for the weekend and need a safe and caring place for your dog for a night or two? My home may be just the place. I have a friendly dog who loves company and is willing to occupy your pooch while you are gone. Tug of war, "chase me", and wrestling are her favorite games to play with other dogs, and she seems to be able to adjust to meet the size and level of play of others. I have had pets my whole life (including dogs, cats, rabbits, chickens, horses, cows, birds, and even a raccoon for a while). Currently, however, I have a lab-shephard mix named Rook (she's 2-years old) and a cat who has her own space, away from the dog. My dog is part of the family and is treated well and given attention. I am a conscientious and caring person who will take great care to ensure your pup has a good time while you are away.

Lenore (and Rook) are absolutely wonderful! Lenore is so gracious, flexible, and communicative. She sends lots of pictures and videos of Mark and Rook playing and she was even incredibly flexible when our schedule took a turn and had to make some last minute changes. We have sent our playful pup, Marty, to her twice and both times he has come home so happy and tired from all the play! Would recommend and will continue to send Marty!
