I will be mostly the one caring for the animal, especially if it is just for walks. I have been caring for dogs for many years now. And, my family has watched dogs and it has been a joy and a privilege to care for these animals while their owners cannot be with them during the day or night. If you chose to leave your sweet pup with us... we have a maltipoo here that loves new friends! I have many years of experience doing this and it has been a joy! This is the very reason we got a puppy... was because of the joy we had caring for others pets! We look forward to caring for your sweet family member- either walking or having them over night.
