My husband and I are pastors, in the Lowcountry. I have had dogs my whole life and am compassionate and caring. Because I am a mature woman,and a pastor , I am consistent and trustworthy. My dog, who was a great Pyrenees, was a very large dog. So the size of the breed does not phase me. My schedule is flexible. And because my dog was so large it was difficult to take him on vacations, so I know the difficulty and the stress that comes upon you in finding someone trustworthy to take care of your very special friend. I would like to be that special friend to your family, to give you and your family , peace of mind while you are are away.
