DOGS ARE FAMILY!

Pet care experience

No cages. No cold floors. Lots of love. This a home and not a kennel . Your dog receives lots of love and attention in my care. Your dog will not be caged.

I give Bob a 5 star review! He does a wonderful job pet sitting our girl. He’s very quick to respond and always updates us including pictures. Besides the daily walks, Bob has the perfect setup with a doggie door so they can go outside to a fenced in area whenever and his dog is super friendly. I know Daphne is in the best hands with Bob!

Flynn’s stay with Bob was great! He had lots of fun and was well cared for. Will use Bob again.

After meeting Bob, I felt very confident that Murphy would be well taken care of. Bob is very kind and professional. I can tell he really likes animals.

Bob was wonderful! He treated Levi like his own and gave him plenty of walks, attention, treats, and love. It was very nice getting frequent updates and pictures. We will be booking with Bob again!

Information Bob D. would like to know about your pet

Due to obligations I am unable to accept drop offs during the morning on thursday. Would want to know any special needs, medication, food allergies as well as idiosyncrasies. Also need to know who your Vet is and if pet has flea and tick prevention and up to date on shots, including the flu vaccine. Need also to know exercise needs, response to basic commands. I will respect your wishes as to feeding, being on furniture, and human food. I am able to supply a quality dog food if you would like

A typical day

I have woods to explore and a path down to the lake for those water lovers. I walk my dog a minimum of three times a day and Parker would love to have a walk buddy. Since I love being around dogs I will gladly work on any training you would like
