Like the title, we're a family of five with parents (us) who grew up with dogs. We love them (and our 3 kids do too), but not ready to take on the responsibility of having our own dog full-time. We love watching other peoples dogs. This must be just like being a grandparent as we can do all the fun things for a while, then send them back happy. We typically limit ourselves to one DogVacay vist at a time. There are occasions where we may overlap for a day or two if the dogs have previously stayed with us. Your dog is guaranteed to have a lot of attention during its stay. *Note: We will not watch male dogs who are not neutered. The range of dog smells in the yard is too much to keep them from marking indoors. Willing to discuss on an individual basis. Equally, pets must be house trained.
