Loving care for your pup

We love dogs and have always own two or three at a time. We recently adopted an 18-month old male golden retriever after we lost our 12 year old female golden. Our new pup and our 9 year-old dachshund girl love to host guest doggies for overnights or just a playdate.

Alicia and James took good care of Dakota. It is a shame Mother Nature covered the backyard in snow. Being a beagle, Dakota would have stayed out in the backyard most of the day. I would definitely use Alicia and James again!

This was Niki’s third stay with Alicia and she had another happy, comfortable experience. There is no stress about how well she was being cared for, which allowed us to enjoy our vacation. Very grateful for this dogsitting option!

Alicia and James were wonderful in watching my dog Duncan. They sent me pictures every day showing me what Duncan was up to. In addition, Duncan had a wonderful time with their two dogs. I would leave Duncan with Alicia and James again.

Pets

A typical day

We let the dogs out in the backyard in the morning and then feed them breakfast. They play outside and nap. In the late afternoon we go for a walk around the neighborhood trails and/or play outside in the backyard which is fenced and partially wooded, with many interesting areas to sniff around. We snuggle on the couch after dinner to watch some tv before bedtime.
