I have had dogs and cats for my entire 51 years and have raised and shown dogs for about 10 years. My own brood are my kids and I love and care for them dearly. They are rather spoiled and I would not have it any other way. I will treat your dogs/cats the same. Lots of love, walks and their safety and well being are most important. Having traveled my entire working career and needing dog sitters I understand the challenges faced when leaving your pets. Plant watering, newspaper/mail gathering, trash cans out/in also provided.
