I guess a home away from home relaxed environment not to crowded . The back yard is a smaller yard, but plenty of room to run . I feel like their stay is a little mini vacation. It is so fun to just meet other dogs and get to know their personalities. I love to take care of pets and to know they are being taken care of . I will send pictures of the pups to their owners. It helps to reassure that their fur babies are doing well . . Whatever they need to help make sure the dogs (parents -owners ) felt comfortable and happy . I enjoy taking them in walks as well. Animals have always been a special part of my life. pets are truly amazing to me.
