Lover of furry friends!

Pet care experience

Years ago, my mother and I owned a boarding kennel and I was a professional groomer. Now I am semi-retired and loving spending time with furry friends! I am familiar with all breeds and love them all! We have always had a pet in our home and would love to provide care while you have to be away. I currently work outside the home for a partial day on Mondays. Other than errands and appointments, I am home all day to interact with your fur baby! Should an emergency come up, I am available. All our furry guests are treated like family. We have a large fenced in yard with no steps for the older fur babies. We own a cat that pretty much keeps to herself. We are good with pets of all ages and understand they all need different levels of care. We are empty nesters, so have the time and energy to keep up with any needs your pet may have.

Alice did a fabulous job taking good care of our 5 month old puppy. She not only showered love and made sure he was comfortable at his first stay away from home but also keep him well groomed. Coco smelled so good when we picked him and seemed very happy to stay at Alice and Don.

Alice and Don took great care of my 2 dogs for a 10 day stay. You can tell when people love dogs and they checked that box! They have a lovely fenced back yard which is a must for an active dog that enjoys the outdoors. My dogs were relaxed and happy when I picked them up so I knew they enjoyed their stay. Thank you, Alice and Don!

Alice and Don took great care of our pug while we were out of town. We received daily pictures and an update on his day. He really enjoyed their big fenced back yard! Thank you Alice and Don for making Obi feel at home! We will definitely book with them again.

Information Alice & Don G. would like to know about your pet

Be sure and let me know any quirks or special needs your dog has so that we can accommodate. I love all breeds and can care for the larger breeds as well as the littler guys. However, since we do have a couple of cats, the larger breeds would need to have a gentle demeanor.

A typical day

We live in a quiet neighborhood that’s great for walks. If your dog is a bell chaser, there is plenty of room in our large fenced yard to toss the ball (or special toy.) if you have a senior dog that just needs a nice quiet place to stay, we have you covered!
