I am currently working from home and able to care for your dog all day. My husband John and I love dogs and would love to give Oliver a friend to play with every once in a while. We will send you photo updates and be great parents to your pup while you're away! We have a big backyard for your pup to play in and we would go on walks as well. Your dog would be welcome everywhere in our home including couches and bed if that is what they are used to. I only take a pup or pups from 1 family at a time so your dog will get all the love and attention they deserve. I prefer to keep sweet dogs on the smaller side because Oliver likes to have play mates but he gets scared of bigger dogs. No dogs who have a real tendency to mark (pee) in new homes please! Of course I know accidents happen, especially when they are in a new environment (my dog is guilty himself) but would prefer to keep only well potty trained pups! Feel free to ask any questions or make special requests.
