Description:

We are located in Beaver county close to the airport and have a beautiful 2 1/2 acre yard with plenty of room for your loved one to roam. Our family has always enjoyed owning dogs from Yorkies to Dobermans and would love the opportunity to care for your canine companion. Our own Yorkie was stressed to left at home each day as we went to work. We were able to find her loving lap to take her many naps on until we returned home from work each night. We focus our care by only providing services to one owner/family at a time.
With children around to play with, your companion will receive lots of attention including a daily walk, (the length depends on your pets preference) and brushing if your companion enjoys it. Along with our children we also share our home with a small sized Doberman. If a comfortable lap is all that is needed for a long afternoon nap that is also available. Pampering your pet at your place or ours.

About Marcella S.:

Having been pet parents for over 20 years, we understand each pet is special and unique in his or her own special way.Our own Yorkie was very stressed when left while we were working. We were able to find a "loving lap" for her to sit on until we returned home each night. By providing professional yet personal care in your home or ours, we can help relieve the anxiety of seperation while you are away. As a responsible pet owner you are looking for someone to provide the same level of care that you give to your canine companion everyday. If you would like we offer a daily email report to give you that extra reassurance in our services. We offer free no obligation consultation and look forward to meeting you to discuss how we can care for your special one. Pampering your pet at your place or ours.

How long have you been a dog lover? Tell us about your history with dogs.

My husband and I were both raised with dogs and have personally owned dogs for over 20 years. Our peers often turn to us to sit for their pets because they know we can't refuse a wagging tail! Our Yorkie was our personal companion and first "kid" who had seperation anxiety when left alone. Since losing our Boxer last year to cancer, we are experienced with and keenly aware of dogs with special and medical needs.

What would you like to know about a dog before sitting him or her? Do you have any breed preferences?

How does your dog adjust to strangers? Adults and kids differ? What is your dog's routine, feeding schedule, etc. No breed preferences.

Do you have reliable transportation in the event of an emergency?

Yes - 10 minutes from Five Points Vet hospital

Are you comfortable administering medication?

yes

How much time do you plan on spending with my dog each day?

We meet with each prospective client to discuss your needs and what we can do for you. Each client and dog is different and comes with their own habits, needs and requests. We tailor our services to meet your needs and therefore don't have predefined time periods to spend with your dog.

If you have a backyard, please describe it.

We have over 2 acres of level property where your dog is free to run and roam, play fetch, etc if you so choose. We also have a 27 X 18 fenced area for smaller dogs or those who just like to hang out outside for a while.

Where will my dog sleep?

Sleeping arrangements are up to the client. Owners usually bring their dog's bedding, i.e. bed, blanket, crate, etc. We have furniture covers for our own dog as well as for guests who are use to sleeping on furniture.

Where will you take my dog on walks? Tell me about it.

Depending on the dog, we either walk your dog around our yard or we can walk them on our quiet country road.

Ratings

This was our first experience using Rover, Marcella and Tom were friendly, great at getting us a quick response, and most importantly, they took great care of our fur babies! They and the kids took great care of them, kept them entertained and left us feeling safe to enjoy our vacation. Iggy is a puppy, and is still learning, they were accommodating to her needs, and did well with keeping her on track with training and house breaking-which was wonderful. We'd definitely use them again, and will recommend to friends! (Collapse)
My husband and I moved to area not long ago and were worried about finding a sitter for our beloved dog when we had to travel. Tom and Marcy were absolutely wonderful and very accommodating. They allowed our dog to sleep with their family and provided lots of pictures to give us peace of mind while we were away. We would highly recommend them to anyone looking for a sitter!
Our family takes great comfort knowing that Marcy and Tom will be staying at our home and caring for our animals. We will be asking them back every time we are in need... They are excellent!!!!
Marcy and Tom did an excellent job for us and we are already booking them for future jobs!!! We highly recommend this trustworthy couple to look after your furry friends and keep your home safe! These animal lovers are very communicative, respectful and honest. We couldn't have asked for a better experience and appreciate every aspect of service we received!!! Thank you very much :)

Marcy and her family have watched our animals many times and we highly recommend them! We have a lot of animals including 2 dogs, 2 rabbits and 6 chickens and never worry about the care they receive when they are watching our pets. Our pets are spoiled and get lots of attention, thanks to our favorite pet watchers!
