I have had dogs all of my life, I cannot remember a day without a dog! I have 1 senior dog, and have experience with the things that come with owning and caring for senior dogs, such as medicating them and providing frequent potty breaks. I also have a puppy with dwarfism and am no stranger to special needs! I am available most weekends. I love playing with active dogs! I grew up with Labs, Chows, Norwegian Elk hounds, Chihuahuas, and Pitties. As much as I love playing with active doggies, I equally love cuddling and lounging around with lower energy and older doggies :) I understand the stress of leaving your babies behind, and strive to provide the best care possible for your fur baby! I have personally sat out on so many vacations and over night trips because the thought of leaving my babies with a stranger was scary. I have experience with shy/standoffish dogs as well.
