Large Fenced Yard, Fun-4-Dogs!

Pet care experience

I've been doing this for 4 years now. I currently work from home so I'm here with the dogs for the majority of the day. I need to list a few things: 1. If you have a large breed dog that I haven't met before, we'll need to do a meet and greet. 2. If you think your pet is prone to going over a fence or under a fence, we would want to do a meet and greet to see if we think its a good fit. 3. I have dogs here of all shapes and sizes, so if you think your pet won't get along with the others, I probably am not the best option for you. But you are welcome to schedule a meet and greet with me to find out for certain. 4. Most likely, I will be unable to sit 'extra-large breed dogs'. But you can still enquire with me about it if you would like. 5. The only breed of dog I will no longer board or do sitting for is the Husky breed. All other breeds are fine. 6. I can bathe your pet if requested. I can do pick ups and drop offs (depending on distance). - Any further questions? Let me know.

When I needed to stay longer to help out my daughter and her family, Bart graciously let my Louie stay an extra night. I really appreciated his flexibility. As it happened my grandson was in the hospital and things were a little chaotic and we needed that extra time to get everything back to normal. Knowing my Louie was well cared fro back at home was a huge relief....because my dog LOVES Bart.

BART is just the best. Louie loves him and he is always helpful to me, the owner. This must be Louie’s 15th stay with Bart.

Bart always does a great job with Dexter! He communicates quickly, gives us updates, and Dexter always comes home tired and happy. Thanks Bart!

This was my first time with Rover and I’ve been nervous about leaving my girls with a “stranger.” We had a meet and greet previous to our booked sitting and all of my anxieties were put at ease. I just picked up my girls from their first day at Bart’s and I am so happy with his attentiveness to care, they came home dead-tired and happy. I look forward to having Bart watch my girls again, and feel as though they are in very safe hands.

Unfortunately, not all dogs will be a good fit for my house or yard. We'll need to do a Meet & Greet prior to the stay to make sure its a good fit. I can no longer do 'last minute bookings' with dogs that I have never met before. My fence is quite secure and tall. The majority of my fence is 6 foot tall around my yard. I do have one short section that is only 4 foot tall. This is one of my biggest concerns and so I need to ask beforehand if your dog is prone to jumping over or trying to go under a fence, because, even though my fence is tall and quite secure. I can't have a dog here that is prone to jumping over. So this (and other reasons) are why we need to do a meet & greet to figure this stuff out.

A typical day

Walks are usually just up and down the street, there really aren't any specific sites to go to or anything like that. My yard is so big that going on walks isn't all that common but I am happy to go on walks as I know it provides a great bonding experience and the dogs love it.

My weekly routine isn't complicated or hectic. I spend lots of time around the house (inside and out). My neighborhood is nice, quiet and safe.
