Back Bay Dog Lover

I've lived with dogs all my life and have plenty of experience caring and nurturing them. Four dogs and two cats are the most I've ever had at one time for over 10 years. Family and friends have relied on me to watch their dogs when they go out of town. I'm a stay at home Mom, so I have plenty of time to play and care for dogs. I have to kids in school, but my husband Our home is near the Back Bay and will happily take dogs on walks there. Our yard has a 7ft high fence to keep dogs safe.

Our dog Angus always seems happy to arrive at Karen and Michael’s home— he ran right into Karen’s arms last week which makes us feel really good about leaving him with this lovely family!

Karen and Michael were great. I could not have expected any better. They kept and treated our pup as part of their own family. Their dog Prince is super friendly. My pub had a great time playing with Prince. Karen kept us informed with photos and videos frequently. We would love to have Karen and Michael take care of our pub again. Thank you so much Karen and Michael.

Pets

A typical day

I love to take dogs on long walks. We have several parks that are walking distance. Or if the dogs want to be more adventurous, we can walk in the Back Bay, either on the pedestrian road or off track. Dogs love running and sniffing and experiencing the nature there.
