We do not have children or pets. We have had dogs and cats since we were children. We had two of our own dogs raised from 8 weeks to 10-14 years old. We love animals.Husband and wife team. We are available every day and all hours as we both work at home all week and this is a way to help others and interact with animals. We do not have a fenced yard but your animal (dog) will be taken out to go potty on a leash as often as needed and walks as much as needed. We do have a baby gate for a linoleum kitchen for boarding overnight as needed. Your pet will be free to wander around during the day and because we are home, they will not be locked in a kennel for hours. They will be played and cared for as one of the family!
