Availability
I’m currently a stay at home Mom so my schedule is flexible. I’m able to be home as much as needed and rarely leave for extended periods of time. My husband works from home so there will most likely always be someone around. In addition to our one dog we can board up to three additional dogs at one time. I will do my best to keep you updated and informed if there will be any additional dogs in the house at the time of your pets visit but I do quite often receive last minute request. Drop off/pick up times between 7:00 AM - 10:30 PM, any request outside these times may require an additional night to be booked.

About Ashley & Robbie G.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
We recently moved into our new home which is larger then the old one with TONS of space for the dogs, a covered patio to relax under and a fully fenced in yard. We plan to install a doggie door as soon as possible so dogs can have free access in and out of the house. While rare to have more the. 3 additional dogs in the house we will occasionally take up to 5 additional dogs at one time. While we do our absolute best to monitor the dogs 24/7 they are dogs and can be unpredictable, we do our best to maintain a safe environment for all dogs and will inform you of any issues that arise.

Information Ashley & Robbie G. would like to know about your pet
We’re quick learners who can adapt to your dogs needs. Any tips on behavior, likes/dislikes would be appreciated. I find the more info you can provide on eating habits, day to day routine and overall demeanor really helps them adapt to their temporary home. Your dog must like kids and be ok with a young energetic dog. During the meet and greet we’ll discuss your pets needs and observe their interaction with our dog. We’ll also discuss sleeping arrangements; we prefer dogs to be crated at night but know this is not always your pets norm so the living room can create a cozy environment and we’re happy to discuss options.
A typical day
We love spending time outdoors during the day and cuddling on the couch at night. If the weather is right we’re riding bikes to the park or heading to the river to enjoy the views. We also enjoy hanging out in our backyard or playing games inside. We can be as active or inactive as your dog might need.

Pet care experience
For the past 15 years we’ve had 2-3 dogs and truly believe our dogs are a part of our family. Currently we have a 2 year old Aussiedoodle and we have two kids who love to play with dogs but also understand when a dog needs his or her space. We do allow dogs on the couch and have plenty of room for a dog bed if provided. I’ve had pets all my life and understand how important it is to have someone watching them who will treat them love and respect. I’m currently a stay at home mom and my husband works from home. While we have daily chores and errands we run everything is adjustable to fit your dogs needs. I’m rarely gone more then 2 hours at a time and there will usually always be someone home in my absence. Dogs are welcome to come in and out of our home via a doggie door and have full access to our large backyard. We recently moved and the yard is even bigger and better than before! If you require walks or even trips to the dog park we can definitely accommodate that. We do allow dogs on the couch and we have gates set up to keep dogs on our main level giving us the ability to keep a close watch on them. Note: For puppies under 1 or dogs with chewing tendencies or destructive separation anxiety we may require a crate. We do have one extra available and can definitely discuss further at the meet and greet.
Reviews
Communication was awesome. I think my dogs actually miss being at the sitters ;)
Overall, Ashley and Robbie were great with my puppers. I got daily updates, pics and videos more than once a day to let me know things were going well. They even sent a care package with treats and a card when they left. They even last minute was able to accommodate a change in pick up times. A couple issues did happen and at the end of the visit, one of my pups and their dog got into a scuffle, unsure what the cause was, but this made it so they can't stay again. Not all dogs get along and I can respect that. Mine took a few days after being home to act like herself. She wouldn't go in her crate or eat food. However, I was more upset about not being asked about my crate. I offered to set it up when I dropped them off and Ashley told me they could figure it out. The crate was zip tied because it was not put together correctly. I was told it was secure with the zip ties, but it is a very expensive crate and just would have appreciated a message to ask about it being more flimsy than it should have been. I could have explained the correct way it needed to be secured. Even after the scuffle, they kept the dogs separated, but gave them love and affection and I knew they were still being well taken care of that last day. Until the last day incident, everything seemed to be going great and I believe my pups had a blast while there.
They took great care of my dog! I appreciated the extra communication, updates and photos!
Once again leaving our boys with Robbie and Ashley was a success. They and their whole family are so good with both Winchester and Ruger (65 lbs each). My boys were not feeling well originally (nerves) and they loved on them and took such good care of them that it was noticeable with my boys. Ashley made Winchester feel so good he even went up to Robbie and made him move a pillow so Win could sit with Robbie and Win is not even very fond of males! Ashley kept in contact a lot with great pictures (seriously she should do this on the side the pics are so good). Definitely recommend them and that is saying a lot because my boys are my babies. Thank you so much Robbie and Ashley and family!
