I am a stay at home retired female who has owned dogs all her life. I actually cook for my dogs and they go to the dog park every morning just to see buddies though we have a big beautiful fenced back yard. I can handle any dog and will treat them like a guest in my home. Your pet is safe and secure with me and they sleep inside or out whichever you prefer. To see us (my husband and I) is to love us and feel relaxed when leaving your buddy with me. You can drop off or pick up anytime day or night. Need someone to just check on your pets and play awhile...can also do that. Nothing feels better than taking a trip and knowing they are in the best hands. Would love to keep them happy and safe while your gone!
