I do have a dog of my own! He is young, he is big, and he is enthusiastic about other dogs. He is also polite and totally wonderful, and incredibly well-natured, but I do require a Meet & Greet to ensure your babe feels comfy with mine and vice versa. That said! I just wanna know what makes your dog tick! Do they need to eat at a certain time Or Else? Do they need to walk a certain number of miles a day? Will they be comfortable sharing a couch with Hyder? If I am caring for them at your home, is it okay if Hyder is there too? (I ask a million questions in the Meet & Greet that I could never summarize here, as it is extremely important to me that your dog feel as close to "being home" as possible while in my care.) I have specific breed experience primarily with large dogs - Boxers, Pit Bulls, Labs, Goldens, Chow Chows, Rottweilers, mixes comprised of these breeds and others, but I have also lived with and cared for a number of small dogs as well! *** Because I have to keep my own babe in mind - I do need any dog who stays in my home to be completely up to date on standard vaccinations!

I live a very short walk from the beach! So Hyder and I most often explore over on Long Sands Beach and always welcome a buddy! Beyond that, I am willing and eager to explore anywhere. If your pup has a preferred route, I will gladly take them there, but I am just as happy to take them for an adventure stroll. Speed isn't a concern - running and walking are both on the table. If your dog likes to play fetch, I've got an arm with a decade and a half of throwing practice and the patience to match even the most enthusiastic retriever.
