I have never not owned a dog in my life. I am a college student and the only time I will not be at home is when I am attending class or when I am at my part time job which is less than 20 hours a week. Having a pet door, your pet will always be able to utilize our large fenced yard and have access to the A/C house with 5 gallon water dish. I have a high energy husky as my personal pet so your pet will always have a play buddy when they come and stay here. We are more than happy to provide pictures throughout your pet's stay. We have an excessive amount of pet toys for heavy chewers to ball catchers. Any and all special requests are welcome to help make your pet stay as enjoyable as possible.
