I love animals, especially dogs! If the dog isn't around you 24/7, then he's not being part of the family. A dog is absolutely part of the family and probably the most loyal one at that. I love the concept of being able to leave your dog with someone that can give him/her constant attention while you're away. I know that when it was possible your dog would go everywhere with your family. There are times however, when that is not possible and leaving your best friend at a boarding place just doesn't feel right. Just in time with vacations coming up, you can book with me last minute and be rest assured you're leaving him/her in loving hands. I take the dogs on daily walks and have plenty of play time. If it's nice outside, we will be out all day. I don't require a crate provided the dog is a well behaved dog. Your dog will spend its time with us in our whole house. On the deck, backyard, family room and if he/she sleeps in your bedroom at night, we'll do the same. I will be more than happy to send pictures, videos, emails, and texts of your furry while you are away.
