Hi, Meghan here, I have always been a dog-lover, and currently my boyfriend and I have two dogs—lovable fluffy huskies. Because our pups are on the older side, they do best with mellower dogs. If your pup tends to play rough, we're not the best sitter for you. We allow our furry friends on the couch, but can also work on furniture-boundaries if your pooch isn't allowed on furniture at your own home. I work from home, so I'll be home most of the day during the weekdays. The longest your pup will be home alone (with my pups) is around 4 hours. I am comfortable with big dogs. I can give medications, and can brush your pooch as well! Here's a little about us: Meghan has been a dog-lover since birth. She grew up with dogs of all shapes and sizes. Cameron had many dogs growing up, including a neurotic lab and a german shepherd who liked to hide in bushes. Meet my pets: Just the dogs! About my yard We have a fenced backyard and a dog door, and one side of the fence is on the low side. Please let me know if your pup is an escape artist and I will make sure to keep a close eye on them while they're in the backyard. Our dog door can be locked if your pup is an escape artist. My experience administering medication We are comfortable administering oral medication. **We do have a Potty Clause. We understand accidents happen, and are very forgiving, as pups are often excited and can't help themselves at first. However, we have occasionally had extreme repeat offenders. We take dogs on the basis that they are potty trained. If we feel there are an excessive number of indoor incidents, we will let you know, and ask for a $10 additional fee (per week, or fraction thereof), to cover the cost of laundry and cleaning supplies.** Thanks!
