1.5 fenced-in acres. I am rarely away from home. I do a little volunteer work but I am a home body and that means most of my time is at home allowing me to take at least one dog for any working Dog Moms or Dads who are looking for doggy day care. I was a co-owner of three doggie day care centers in North, Central and Southern NJ. I am animal CPR, massage and injection trained. I served only warm food to my doggies. I love all kinds of animals; once they enter my house, they become my children. I have been accused of loving animals more than people, and, I am OK with that. I have no more 4 legged darlings and now I NEED to dog-sit so I'm not so lonesome and can still share my bed! My second German Shepherd and I were trained to visit schools, hospitals and nursing homes. We met once a month at a Juvenile Detention Center in NJ, where kids interacted with Greta. I was an Emergency Room Technician, volunteered on several First Aid Squads in NJ, and have more than 25 years military background. As a result, I remain extremely calm in emergency situations. (But! I do sob at sad movies!) I am a licensed Home Health Aide. My doggie day care business is IMPORTANT to me and I will respond as quickly as possible. THANK YOU for reading about me and remember, I NEED 4-LEGGED, HAIRY COMPANY! I am old fashioned and respond faster to my phone, rather than e-mail. I am home most of the time except for Church on Sunday and Bible Study on Tuesday. I rarely do home health care work anymore. My lawn man does NOT use Roundup and I don't buy any rawhide toys or treats. I serve refrigerator-cold water and warm food, as found in nature. UNFORTUNATELY, I no longer have my own pets except for goldfish. ALTHOUGH I LOVE ALL DOGGIES, I am more comfortable caring for bigger dogs. I prefer 40 lbs and over, PLEASE and THANK YOU!
