Home on the weekends

Pet care experience

I am home most weekends so if you are planning a weekend getaway your dog is safe and free to stay with me anywhere from Friday night to Sunday nights. I’ve always been a dog person; I love them and have owned a dog for 13 years until he unfortunately passed away almost a year ago. I desperately want another dog of my own but since I don’t have a yard, I want to wait until I have a yard or can be home more during the week to play with and care for them. I am very active so I can walk or run with dogs. I currently live with my husband who also loves dogs.

Would like to know if they bark a lot, wouldn’t want to disturb our neighbors. Also would like to make sure they are potty trained since we have lots of carpet.

Will take them on multiple long walks and/or a run. I can keep them very active and will play catch with them. When it’s time to feed them I will do so based on their schedule.
