All breeds are welcome, especially the ones that are deemed by society to be “aggressive.” I have considerable experience with dogs having such a label, including having had 2 pit bulls that are currently in dog heaven. I just need to know this about your furry family member: His/her temperament; level of socialization with other dogs (yes/no or extrovert/introvert); energy level; any medical issues or administration of medicine schedule; whether housebroken or not; and anything else of importance. I keep a clean and orderly house, so doggy accidents are no problem. I have wood floors with rugs. I’m an expert at carpet cleaning with a machine since I had senior dogs with bladder issues in the past. I regularly clean my carpet once a week and vacuum/mop daily. Basically, I do not discriminate when it comes to dogs, as I know how difficult it was for me to find someone to watch my pit bulls in emergencies. I lived in Chicago and frequented all of the dog parks and learned about doggy socialization there, especially by hiring and working with trainers. It’s all about what are your expectations and preferred outcomes for your dog, as I know they are a valuable member of your family!

We will walk in the neighborhood and go by the grassy areas near the two lakes. We can visit a dog park and go for drives (some dogs love to be on an adventure). Perhaps even meet new friends if the dog permits meeting new dogs in my neighborhood or with people I know. We will play with toys provided or I’ll get the toys and keep them on hold just for your furry family member. There can be naps even together on the couch or bed. Nothing is off limits, just ask!
