My name is Norman - my parents rescued me from a local Tampa rescue and I am one lucky dog! My parents are retired so someone is always with me. They take me for walks but ai also have a doggy door to a fenced yard so I can come and go as I please. Most days I lay on the couch and my dad scratches my neck. I do have a pool but I don’t like to swim. I love to share my toys and I love all dogs. Cats kind of freak me out! I would love to have visitors to play with

Hello, my wife and I recently had our first child and now have a full home with a 9mo baby and 2 goldendoodles. We like to go on walks as a family or to the dog park and our dogs roam free at home when we are gone. My wife works nights as a nurse and I work from home so typically there is always someone home with the dogs. We are joining this as we want to get back to traveling but we hate the idea of boarding our dogs and though this could be a great solution and would love to return the favor to others as well.

I live in Westpark Village in a 3 bed, 4 bath house. I do not work, so im home most of the day. It's just me, my husband, my 21 year old son, and Bella. My husband and I love to travel. I normally take Bella to a boarding suite, but I haven't fully been liking it. So we would love to switch off service for her to go to someone's home and do the same in return. She is house trained and active but loves to nap as well. She is very friendly with other dogs. If your dog stayed with us, we go on many walks and potty breaks. Alway a big fan of dog parks if the owner is ok with them.
