We are a family comprising of myself and teen daughter. We sadly lost our 12 year old Mini-Schnauzer "Huey" The King and light of our home :-) ). We love animals of all kinds and frequently mind them for family and/or neighbours. So we've had exposure to many different dog personalities and breeds. As I work mostly from home, I have the flexibility and good fortune to care for dogs in our home. This normally includes a morning and afternoon walk with dogs we're minding. We are fortunate to live near an array of dog parks and walking areas and often let them off for a run (if safe with owner).. We ask that any dogs we mind are clean, fully toilet trained and content to be on his own for short periods of time. Your dog would have the run of our home/townhouse which includes two levels and grassed garden (fully fenced and accessed through a dog door from living room). Our Mon-Fri daily routine usually kicks off with a morning walk and coffee enroute (either before I start work at 8.30am or mid-morning/lunch time). I then work in my home office me. Weekends are a bit more relaxed with outings but always at least a walk a day. I occasionally leave home to shop, collect my daughter or run errands. We would treat your dog like out our precious boy Huey and welcome him/her into our home. Ruth :-)
