A vacation getaway for your dog.

Pet care experience

***UPDATE: With a newborn at home, our availability and ability to accept requests is significantly reduced.*** More than just a place for boarding, it is our goal to provide the best vacation destination for your dog. We provide specialized attention and care to ensure your dog is comfortable and has the most enjoyable stay possible while in our home. When most dogs first arrive, they are a bit reserved and lonely for their owners. We immediately spend one on one time with the dog to get them comfortable and happy to be staying with us. Ollie is an incredible host dog. She wants to play with all dogs that stay with us, but is not overly pushy with those who are not interested. By the end of the stay, most dogs end up loving to play with Ollie, even if they were not interested at first. A tired dog, is a well behaved dog. If your dog spends most of their time home alone while you are at work, I am here to help. I have been a dog lover/owner since I was a child and currently have a spunky and well behaved rescue mutt named Ollie. My daily routine for Ollie includes exercising her at least twice a day, brushing her teeth and engaging her in trick training sessions. She knows more than 2 dozen commands/tricks including shake vs high 5, roll over (both ways), and "Clean up your toys." Weekly care for Ollie includes nail trimming, hair brushing, and bathing (as needed). I am willing to provide the same care and attention for your dog. I began by dog sitting for my neighbors' dog who was often home alone during the day We quickly noticed the benefits for both the dogs and dogs' families. As a result, I have expanded my services to other busy pet owners who are looking to give their dog a social and attentive atmosphere to spend their time during the work week or provide the most enjoyable experience for extended stays.

Andrew took wonderful care of Shiloh, Brandi & Ari for the day I needed to be in Stevens Point for my son’s UWSP graduation. I felt very comfortable leaving them with him and he made them feel right at home. Given they are all 3 rescue pups I wasnt sure how they would respond to someone new, but he sent an photo of them napping on the couch after playtime in the awesome backyard and I knew all was good! When I picked them up, they were happy and relaxed. I would most definitely recommend Andrew and use his services again!

Andrew and his family were wonderful with our dog Blue! My dog felt at home and thrived while staying with him - he even mastered the stairs (something he struggled with previously). Andrew regularly sent updates, pics, and videos and I can tell Blue had a great time and bonded with Ollie. We will definitely be using Andrew again!

I do free lance work from home Monday - Friday, so I am able to provide more than just a supervised space for your dog. I am able to provide personalized and consistent attention to fit your dogs needs. My weekend availability varies, but any weekend we are home, my wife and I would be glad to have your dog stay with us. No matter what our schedule, we make sure that our pet's daily requirements for exercise and care are a top priority. Whether you are looking to drop your dog off at our house, or looking for someone to walk or care for your dog(s) in their own home, I am more than happy to help.
