My first dog we rescued, with six other puppies, off the side of a busy road. I was ten. After finding home for five, I had my collie for 15 years. I've taken in stray dogs, cats, birds, fish and even a couple lizards. Love them all. My schnauzer Charlie is 11 years old, has diabetes and is blind, but he's still loves his walks and running around my big back yard. I have always shared my home with pets and would love to share my time with yours. I am retired so I'm home all day to care for your fur friends and even take some walks ! I am available most everyday and on weekends. After we get to know each other, I could possibly do some overnights if necessary. I would like the pets picked up by 6pm but I can take early risers easily. I have a large fenced yard with plenty of shade for those sunny days. Nice area for taking walks and neighbor dogs to meet and greet through the fence. My Charlie loves play dates. If your dog needs meds, I can do that, or if they need a quiet spot in a kennel, I have that too. My daily limit is 4 pets including my own, so there will be plenty of individual love and attention. Can't wait to meet you and your furry friend!
