I am an animal lover at heart! Growing up I have constantly had dogs in my life. I had a Collie mix who lived to be 16 and Golden Retriever/ Collie Mix who also lived a long fun and loving life! Currently I have a 2 year old German Shepherd Mix, Marco, who constantly wants to play and have fun! His energy rubs off on any dog he's around which would give your dog tons of fun and plenty of exercise! I also have a 1 year old catahula mix, Aurora, she LOVES to cuddle and just is the sweetest girl. I live in a new community that has 3 trails that are all about a mile long. If you're dog isn't tired from playing all day with my pups then I'm sure he/she would love the walks as well! I am very flexible to your dogs needs. That being said I will stick to any routine that you would normally do at home! This way your dog will be as comfortable as can be while you are away. My yard area is not the biggest but big enough to let the dogs out to do their business and play a little to get their energy out! I have experience in giving oral medication to my dogs in the past, so I can/will do that for your dog as well, I do not have the proper certification although for injectable medications.
