I have 2 medium sized friendly dogs (1 male, 5 yrs old and 1 female 4 years old) who would much prefer someone to hangout at home with them when we leave town than have to go to a boarding facility. They have lots of dog friends but they do need slow introductions with other dogs, so they much prefer to be in their own space. They have a doggy door and secure fenced yard and can be left alone for extended periods of time - they basically just need someone home to feed them and be home to sleep/supervise occasionally. They are super friendly and love everyone they meet! And they are low energy, they will not require walks while gone, they have a big fenced yard. We only travel a few times a year but would love a dedicated person willing to stay with them when we leave! We live in a 3 bedroom house in Chugiak, AK on 1.5 acres in a quiet neighborhood, this would be a very easy stay for anyone interested/willing to hang at our place for a week or two when we leave town.
