Pet care experience
Doggie Dream Stay in Mesquite Hills
My family and I have served as a foster home for many dogs, puppies and kittens from Second Chance Rescue and Hop-A-Long Rescue for over 17 years. We have also had many of our own pets including three dogs we adopted as puppies. We care for friend's pets and they call our home the "ultimate dog getaway."

Ratings and reviews
Alma and her husband Jon were absolutely amazing! They stepped in last minute the night before to watch our dog and made the whole process so easy and stress-free. They sent consistent updates, which we really appreciated, and it was clear our dog was well cared for and comfortable the entire time. Truly couldn’t have asked for a better sitter—would 100% trust them again and highly recommend!
Friendly, flexible with her time when I changed my schedule.
Alma was a great doggy day care sitter. She was available last minute and willing to accommodate our schedule. Gracie was a little nervous, but Alma gave her extra walks to help her out. We will use her services if we are in the area again. Thank you!!
Alma kept us updated daily on how our dogs were doing. We were able to enjoy our trip knowing that our dogs and were well taken care of.
Alma & her husband Jon took great care of my senior American bulldog. Alma was quick to respond, provided daily updates & pictures, and pick up/drop off were seamless.
Alma is very kind and attentive. She took great care of my dog and took him on multiple walks. He was treated so well and it gave me such relief.

Schedule
We are retired and are home most of the day. Your pet will get frequent walks/hikes customized for the activity level that you request. We hang out at night doing various things and your dog will be with us as a part of our family.
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
We offer hosting services because we enjoy pets. Just prior to retiring we lost our dog, Lidia of 16 years. She, like our previous dogs, was a rescue that we adopted at 6 weeks old.
A typical day
Wake up, tea and coffee for humans, breakfast, hugs and visiting with your dog. Here are some of the places we will take our walks, all tailored to the appropriate exercise level of our visitor. We have sidewalks, streets and short trails in our neighborhood, including a very large grassy park. In additional we have hiking trails in the national forest close by. We have room to play in the yard as well. Hanging out throughout the day inside and out. Your dog's sleeping arrangement will vary based on your dog's needs. Most visitors will sleep in the main living area of our home. We'd like you to bring their bed and/or crate. Your dog will be fed according to your instructions for all meals and treating. Since we are retired, your dog will get plenty of attention throughout the day. We treat visitors like family members including chilling out together at night watching movies, listening to music or playing games. Then a treat and off to bed.
