About: I have over 30 years of caring for dogs of all breeds and sizes-including rescue dogs. It is a dogs world-I just pay the bills!! Hi there! I have taken care of and loved dogs all of my life! I currently have two dogs at home- Ryder who is a 7 year old yellow lab who loves to play fetch and cuddle and CiCi, a six year old shepherd mix who loves to explore the backyard and play. Both of my dogs are very dog friendly and love to play. I work from home most days and am available on weekends. I have half an acre of fenced in back yard that allows your fur baby to have endless zoomies and potty breaks! I also take my dogs on frequent walks to get their exercise on as well. Dogs are welcomed on the couch. Interactions and meals between dogs will always be supervised. Please let me know how I can best fit your dogs needs! I have a spacious house that allows allows dogs to relax and have their space. My backyard is half an acre and fenced completely. I enjoy walking my dogs for both physical and mental exercise. I always ensure the safety of my dogs and will care equally for anyone who trusts me with their pups.
