I've had dogs since before I can remember, of all sizes, breeds, and temperaments. I've never met a dog I didn't love and who didn't love (or at least get along with) me, and I can't wait to meet yours! I'll spend lots of time petting and playing with your dog no matter which service you request, because I love to do it and all I want is to keep your dog happy and healthy. Regarding dog-sitting at my home, I've got plenty of dog toys, dog beds (and my own bed, if that's what your dog is used to), healthy treats, and a large fenced yard plus two lovely dog parks nearby. My gentle yellow lab loves having playmates around, though he's also happy to mind his own business if your dog isn't interested. If I come to your home, I will be entirely respectful of your belongings and privacy. I'm very flexible about how much time I spend at home with the dog, so if you want me to be home full-time just let me know and we can talk about it!
