I'm a young retiree and I spent most of my time at home. I live on the shore of a small unpolluted lake...your dog will love it. I have a dock and an accessible beach. My property is about 1 acre. I'd probably willing to go get your dog for an extra fee (based on distance). I have had a dog for the last 12 years, sadly he passed away recently. I'm not ready to have another dog of my own right away, but I already miss having doggy company...so you can be sure that I will care for your dog like if he was mine. I'd be happy to sit cats. I haven't had one in many years (Victor (my former dog) "loved" them too much!) but i like them very much too. Note that I am a beekeeper. Although bees don't usually bother us, there are some on the property. Il me fera plaisir de vous recevoir dans la langue de votre choix: anglais ou français.
