I have fostered giant breeds for many many years. I have had 8 dogs in my care at one time, 4 of my own and 4 rescues. I currently have an Old English Sheepdog, Fiona who goes with me pretty much everywhere, including my work when I go into the office. She is full of energy and loves to have frens come plan with her. I have a lot of flexibility with my work schedule and can work from home when needed. If there is a need to be at office when I have your pet, they can come with Fiona and me too! :) I have a fenced yard in which i keep the gates locked at all times. My Fiona is trained to ring bells at the door when she wants out. sometimes that is to do business, other times it run laps around the yard. If your pet needs to be crated at night, i do have various crate sizes so you wont have to bring your own.
