We live in a quite cul-de-sac in Baltimore county, with just under an acre of (unfenced) yard. Although the yard isn't fenced, we do have a large, gated deck, and are quite used to having to escort our guests outside on a leash. We have over 20 years of dog care experience, but don't have our own pet, which means your dog won't be competing for attention. We love dogs but are quite happy not to have the expense and hassle of owning our own! I work mostly from home, but do teach at Stevenson University on a part-time basis. Typically, that means I'll be out for 3-4 hours 3 mornings each week. We can accommodate and have experience with cats and other small animals, too! The pictures you can see show my wife and I, our home in the spring, and some of our doggy guests! Since we're within a couple of minutes' walk from a state park, we can guarantee plenty of fresh air and fun for your furry family member! We are also happy to administer medicines (pills, anti-tic treatments, et al), and take care of any special needs. We very rarely have more than one guest at a time. When that does happen, the animals are either from the same owner, or everyone has met beforehand to confirm that the pups will get along. Please come for a 'check-us-out' visit - with no obligation. We want you to be totally confident that we are the right fit for your family. ******************************************** Please Note: We have recently adjusted our rates. If your pup(s) have stayed with us before, we will keep to the rate previously charged through 2022. This requires a little manual adjustment at our end, so don't worry if the initial price seems higher than expected. We appreciate your trust in letting us care for your four-legged, furry family member(s). Don't hesitate to contact us if you have any questions or concerns. ********************************************
