I'll treat your dog like family.

Pet care experience

Anyone who knows me knows I love dogs and prefer their company to most people I’ve met. I will spoil your dog as if he/she is mine. I have had dogs in my life since I was 5. They bring so much joy and it’s a relief to know you can go away and not worry about their care. They will be in great hands with me and my husband. We are both patient, easy going and calm. There will be no loud noises, upset or contention. Their needs will be first during their stay with us. They may not want to leave after a stay at my house. I would love repeat visits. I work full time but my husband is retired so he’s home all the time. When your doggie stays with us he will get constant attention. While your dog is with us they will become part of our family. They will be treated like I’ve treated my own dogs. This is why we have so many repeat clients. The dogs feel very comfortable in our home.

Barbara was great and very responsive. She sent pics and let us know how the pups were doing at all times.

Barb is incredible with our pups- from our first meet and greet to our actual stay, our dogs felt right at home because of her attention to detail in making sure their routine was as if they were at home. Our dogs loved the big yard and couch snuggle time. What a relief to find a sitter we trust- we would definitely book with Barb and Mark again!

Hyper seemed to have enjoyed his stay with Barbara. Throughout the sitter search and booking process, Barbara has been very helpful and prompt in her responses. We are very happy with the service we have received and will consider Barbara without any reservations the next time we need help.

I would appreciate a brief note of likes, dislikes and anything else to help make the stay better for them and us. They will be out of sorts anyway but we try to make them feel at ease during their stay.

We will take multiple walks during the day and I have a nice fenced yard if they want that. If they want they can sit on the sofa with me while I watch tv at night.
