I am and have always been a dog lover. I grew up with dogs and other pets for most of my life. I have owned and taken care of dogs for many years for family and friends as well as for others I that have met through word of mouth. I have also dog boarded many times for many people for various reasons, i.e work, travel, party, night out needed, etc. I its fun and its something I really enjoy doing so it does not feel like work or a hassle at all. For now I do not own a dog but would treat your dog as I would my own. I happily look forward to meeting your dog and will keep you updated with pics throughout the stay.
