I've been a pet owner all my life, with my greatest love always for dogs - all sizes, shapes and personalities. I live outside of town on several acres with hiking trails and lake access nearby. I can be very active with your dog (walks, run, lake time) or just chill at home depending on what you want for your dog. I have experience with crating and am also flexible with free reign in the house (on furniture). I work from home and take frequent breaks throughout the day, usually outside. I would love the opportunity to walk and play with your dog during my breaks. Through family I have access to a lake nearby and if your dog is a water dog I can take him or her to the lake to play on the beach. My schedule is generally very flexible. I am out of town on occasion which may limit long-term boarding opportunities, but otherwise my schedule is open.
