Currently my husband and I are empty nesters. We both work from home and travel sporadically. We are both in the technology industry so we are very easy to connect with. We have been dog owners/lovers for over 25 years and they all have been rescues. I have always had a soft spot for dogs and mine has become my baby since our son is now out of the house. When I dog sit I work from home so rest assured your buddy will never be at home all day alone. My dog Willie and I try to take at least 2 long walks a day and sometimes head to the beach. We would both enjoy having a few friends with us! Willie gets along with all animals and people and has a very Zen way about him. When you have to leave your pet I will provide a loving home, lots of potty breaks and plenty of walks. There will be many updates so you will never have to worry.
