My husband and I are both retired and have been dog owners for more than 35 years. We are responsible, loving, caring and your dog will become part of our family while they are at our home. A crate will only be used if it is a requirement of the pet owner. The dogs can move about freely in our home and when they are outside, they have a large fenced yard to run and play and will be supervised. Walks can be given if that is something that your dog enjoys. Dogs MUST be potty trained. I would love to keep your best friend and will treat them as if they were my own. Please contact me with any questions you might have about me or my home. I would love the opportunity to care for your beloved pet.
