*We Require Meet-n-Greets* Dog lovers to the core, my husband and I have always had dogs. We have experience caring for and owning both large and small breed dogs (we both coincidentally grew up with doberman pinschers, and now own a trio of miniature dachshunds, two Staffordshire terriers, and a Rottweiler pup). We also do foster and hospice foster work for a rescue organization, so our dogs are well socialized and we are well schooled in proper doggie greetings and socialization. My husband and I both work, so if a situation arises where your dog must be left alone, they will be left according to your specifications and requests. I worked as a kennel manager in a veterinary office/boarding facility, so I have experience in literally all areas of caring for canine guests including administering medications. We live in Gig Harbor, and the other beautiful parks and areas within the city, so during the day your dog will get to enjoy long walks and exercise in the beauty of the outdoors. If it is your wish, we are also close to the off-leash dog park where we will be happy to mingle and play fetch. Otherwise, our cottage-type house has a beautiful backyard where they can get exercise and do their business. Our quaint little neighborhood is a few blocks from any main roads, and is perfect for walking dogs in the mornings and evenings. Our dogs sleep with us on the bed and are allowed on the furniture so we can guarantee your dog's comfort in the house. However, if you keep rules about your dogs being on the furniture we will of course abide by those rules for you! Our ultimate dream is to own a home where we can surround ourselves with dogs of all sizes to love and spoil, so let us spoil yours for the time you aren't around to do it yourself!
