I have had a dog most of my life. We have always had Boston terriers and I had a very special shit-zu for 17 years. I've kept dogs many times for friends when they go away for a week at a time or even just a weekend. I love lap dogs but am also learning to love bigger dogs because my daughter has 2 boxers. I don't have a problem having a dog in my bed but will also respect your wishes if you don't want your pet in the bed. I'm extremely reliable and dependable, honest, and just an all around nice person! Our Boston terrier is like a child in our home and I promise to make your pet feel very very special!
