Hello! My name is Shanna, and my husband and I have a 75 pound Golden Retriever named Chance. He is one year old and is the happiest and friendliest dog. He would love to have friends over to play with. My husband and I live in a 4 bedroom home in Northeast Colorado Springs. We live very close to several parks. We enjoy walking multiple times a day. My husband and I both work for public schools, so during the summer months we will be home all day everyday. I work about 10 minutes away so I can come home and check on the dogs during the day. Your dog will be in constant company. Growing up, we always had at least one dog, and now with my siblings having dogs, when we get together there are five dogs under one roof. My husband and I share a love for dogs, and we look forward to meeting and spoiling more dogs. I have been my friends' preferred dog sitter for years. Why I love dog sitting I have been a dog lover my whole life. There is something about dogs that makes me happy. There is nothing more special than coming home to a dog who greets you at the door with kisses. My mom is an animal lover, and growing up we had dogs, turtles, birds, and rabbits. About my yard Yes, I have a nice sized yard for the dogs. The yard is fenced in, and the backyard does have a porch as well as a grassy area for the dogs to do their business. It is a great area for the dogs to play, but I also live very close to several parks, and that is where I will take your dog to the park to play and run. My experience administering medication Yes, as long as I am given specific instructions.
