Hello! We would like the opportunity to have your dog join our family while you are away. We have a locked, securely fenced in back yard to run and play! You can have rest easy while on your trip that your dog is being well cared for by our family. Your dog will get all sorts of attention from the many hands in our family. Some of these hands are little, because of this, we can only have family friendly dogs join us. No. Exceptions. All you need to bring is your dog's necessity items such as food, favorite toys, leash,( we like to go on walks when the weather is good.) and your crate. If your dog would be a good fit to stay with our family please contact us. We look forward to hearing from you!
