I am a long time dog owner with extensive sitting experience for all breeds and sizes. My family and I would love the opportunity to make your dog feel at home while your away. My home consists of myself, my husband, daughter (14) and our 2 friendly and playful dogs, a Newfoundland and a German Shepherd. Please do not allow their size to be off-putting to you, they are wonderful with dogs large and small, as you can see in our pictures. Macie, my newf, really enjoys playtime with small pups and she's the most gentle giant of them all! I have owned previously; a beagle, a lab, another german shepherd and a mixed breed lab, whom I owned until old age. Prior to COVID, I was a volunteer dog walker and helper at Buddy dog humane society which has given me ample experience in dealing with puppies, seniors and difficult dogs as well. I am certified in First Aid and CPR for pets. Our dogs are a very important part of our family and we show that daily by truly making them a part of the majority of our activities, everything from hiking, swimming, camping, beach days, you name it and our buddies are there right alongside of us. I am willing to watch dogs for overnight stays in my home. I can also pick up and drop off or perform drop in visit within a 15 minute radius. When your dogs stays with us, we guarantee to provide plenty of time for playtime both inside and out, weather permitting. We have a large, fenced yard, a dog dedicated area indoors. I do allow dogs on the furniture. At night our dogs sleep in our bedroom and our guests are welcome to as well unless they prefer their own space, crate, etc. We have a large in house crate that is sanitized between uses so no need to lug yours over for the stay (if needed and ONLY if a dog already uses a crate at home). We want them to feel like part of the family while they stay here whether for a night or a few weeks! I am available for cat drop in visits and both boarding or drop ins for rabbits, birds and exotic animals (in cages only). I have owned reptiles, birds, ferrets, and rabbits. Have you ever had to give a ferret medication? Its certainly an interesting task, lol! Thanks for the opportunity to provide your dog (or other pets) with love and affection while your away :) Side note: I try to keep my calendar as up to date as possible but feel free to reach out with inquiries on dates before you solidify your trip to lock in your dates 😀 My husband is also on Rover for drop in and walking services and may assist when necessary. Feel free to meet us both for your pet care needs!
