We had a rescue dog Roxie who had some socialization issues for 14 years. Now that she has passed, we are really missing having a furry family member, but aren't ready for a pet yet. We would LOVE to love on your pet and take care of them. We learned many tricks for getting our senior dog to take pills. We also did a lot of dog training classes when our dog was young. Your dog will enjoy walks in our neighborhood, play, and lots of love and snuggles (if your pet is into snuggles). Please let me know if your dog has any special needs or behaviors that we can account for as well as feeding restrictions or any medications that need to be given. We'd love to make your pup's stay as smooth as possible. When school is in session, we will not be home for about 7 hours M-F, so if your dog will be staying with us during the week during school they will need to be OK being left unattended for that long. We have a large, but unfenced backyard. We like to hang out in the backyard with the dog on a long tie out cable if that is OK. Otherwise we do 10-15 minute walks around the block and longer ones around the neighborhood to take care of business and to get exercise. We treat your dog like it's our own, and possibly love on it even more than we would our own dog since we don't have one full time! We love being able to give your dog a treat or two a day if possible. If your dog has any favorite toys, feel free to bring them. We look forward to taking care of your dog!
