Linda & David Both do dog sitting, One of us will be available at all times to take care of them. (Husband and Wife Team). We live minutes away from Virginia Tech. We can help you out by taking care of your fur babies. We are animal lovers. We spend time outdoors every day. We've cared for animals most of our lives. We have experience training. We are parents and grandparents including to our daughter's dog. We have alot of love and patience. A clean smoke-free environment is important to us. We live in a quiet neighborhood, not much traffic. . We use positive reinforcement. We interact with the animals in our care so they feel welcome. We enjoy exercising with the dogs and frequent walks are valuable. We understand how important a pet is and that they deserve the best care possible. Your dog will be cared for like he or she is part of our family. We consider all dogs under the age of 2 years old to still be puppies and puppy rate will apply. For Daycare when your pet is here more then 9 hours a small extended care fee may apply, booking maybe ajusted.
