We've always had dogs in our lives and homes. First job was working in a kennel for labs and goldens. We're active outdoors people who will love taking your dog for walks. We lost our sweetheart Bailey to old age last year. Recent empty nesters, we're excited to puppy-sit for you and your special companion. Sue works from home full-time. Tom works from home 3 days/week. We have schedule flexibility, so any four-legged guests will get lots of attention and walks. Your dog will have the run of our house (3 floors) if trained and okay with you. But, we're also used to having crated guests, so fine if that's your preference. We adapt to make the experience similar to your home.
