Large fenced yard = time outside

Pet care experience

My wife Mary, and I own a 5 year old golden retriever named Addis Ababa who loves it when friends come to visit. We have a large fenced in yard that we play in every chance we get. We enjoy going on moderate to long walks to the nearby schools and open space. We are flexible in terms of feeding and exercise and we encourage you to tell us about your dog's special needs and quirks (our dog won't go anywhere without her mini pillow in her mouth, as it serves as her 'binky' and it calms her right down). We would love to meet you and your dog! We ar typically available on the weekends, but open to other requests. For obvious reasons, we prefer Golden Retrievers or Labrador Retrievers; but we are open to all bigger dogs! We typically require a 'meet and greet' to ensure that we are all a good match; humans as well as dogs! *We only ask for your dog to be crate-trained in case of emergency transport- we will never put your dog in the crate otherwise.

Our golden seemed to have a great time during his stay with Ben and his wife. We received pictures and updates throughout his stay, which were appreciated. We will absolutely book more stays in the future!

benjamin and mary are wonderful hosts - very nice couple with a great fenced in yard and an adorable golden retriever Adis who loved my dog!! Anytime I need a dog sitter in the Ann Arbor area, they will be my choice and my dog's choice!

I've known Benjamin and Addis for 2 years now. I'm always amazed at how well Benjamin not only cares for Addis but how he has trained her over the past two years whether it's greeting people when they first come to the door or patiently waiting to be fed.
