I work from home and have an extremely flexible work schedule. I have a 3 year old golden retriever who is the most spoiled dog on the planet (he frequently goes on hikes and long walks). I also have 2 cats who might be the only ones spoiled more than our dog! I am willing to visit your fur pet at home, and realize that that may be the best option. I will also check up on your home and bring in mail if you're gone for extended periods of time, and take care of any other fur children you may have! My sister is a vet, so I grew up with a variety of animals running around the house when I was younger! I will make your dog forget that you were ever gone and spoil them as much as you would if you were staying with them. :)
