Easy drop-off, Easy pick-up! I can't remember not having a pet. My parents always said that they want to come back in their next life as one of my pets! I am retired and spend much time in my yard with my dog, Princess (a mini-Aussie). She is a very friendly dog and gets along well with pet guests but protects me by barking at people she doesn't know. I brush her daily and play with her a lot. I also have one indoor cat who is used to being around a dog but is shy and will stay in the front part of the house. I have a large den with dog-friendly furniture. Your dog will feel right at home and will get a lot of attention. If you have any special instructions, please let me know. My home is located on a corner lot where one can easily drop-off and pick-up their pet. I have a covered patio and a fully fenced, grass backyard with trees and plenty of shade. (see additional photos). There is outdoor seating so that I can enjoy your pet while they visit. I monitor all pet guest’s behavior to make sure that the overall environment is harmonious. If there is a problem with personalities, I will separate them and give each personal time in the yard and their own spaces in the house. I will see that your pet is comfortable and happy. If you would like your pet walked beyond the security of my fence, please let me know.
