I've had dogs my whole life-- I grew up with 2 golden retrievers and one shepherd mix. Caring for my dogs is not only a responsibility, but something I love to do. I currently have a 1-year-old blue heeler/border collie who is full of energy! He gets along great with other dogs and is happy to share his home. My roommate has one cat, so if your pet is not comfortable with cats this is not a good home for your pet. I have a nice yard and a large home to house your dog. I also live next to a large park where the dogs can run around. I take my dog to the park everyday and would be happy to take yours as well! My home comes equipped with dog toys galore and plenty of room for play. I live with 3 other people (whom also love pets) so your dogs will never be alone. Rest assured you're pups will be well taken care of while you're away!
