Well Seasoned Loving Pet Care

Pet care experience

We are a retired couple who love dogs. We enjoy the company of four legged furry friends. We only take small dogs 0-15lbs (7 kg). We have dog sat for many years, and enjoy providing a safe, quiet, relaxing environment for furry friends. We have a large fenced back yard. The time spent with us helps to ease stress for you and for your furry family members. Therefore, allowing you to focus on the task at hand, whether that be work or a holiday, without worry. We offer services to older dogs looking for a quiet respite, away from a loud kennel environment that causes stress. If you have a timid shy dog that does not do well in a boarding kennel with loud noises, no night care, and scary other dogs that intimidate and bully your furry family member is safe in our home. We keep to low numbers of dogs boarding, as that gives us the opportunity to give one on one pet smooches, love and attention. Our quiet home life has a soothing energetic vibe that allows your dog to feel like they are not away from home, which helps them to relax. We can do yoga and or even meditate together! We look forward to meeting with you and your treasured furry family member. We are a healthy retired couple who love spending time outdoors, walking and cuddling furry friends. We have lots of availability, and no time restrictions. We are proud of our great connections with furry friends. We actually miss them when we don’t get to see them every week. We truly love puppies and think we have the greatest job in the world!

Another stay done with Carole and Kevin and it went absolutely great. When we dropped Bacon off he didn’t even want to say bye to us. He was just so excited to see them. I think he was more upset when it was time for pick up and he had to leave his playmates.🙈🙈🙈😂😂😂 We appreciate Carole and Kevin for loving and caring for bacon like he is their own fur baby❤️❤️ He’s definitely looking forward to his next stay ❤️

We had the most fantastic experience with Carole and Kevin! From the moment we connected, they were incredibly warm and communicative, providing regular updates, photos, and lots of videos of our little girl Mocha. Their dedication to keeping us informed every step of the way truly set our minds at ease while we were away. Not only did they care for Mocha, but their own dogs welcomed her with open paws🐾 . Despite boarding other dogs simultaneously, Carole and Kevin ensured each pup felt safe, happy, and loved. Mocha, who can be reactive and shy with strangers, quickly warmed up to them, thanks to their patience and understanding. They took their time with her, and she felt comfortable in their care in no time, happily following both the whole time throughout her stay. We couldn’t be more grateful for their exceptional care and highly recommend them to anyone seeking a reliable, attentive, and loving home away from home for their furry family members.

We cannot express how happy we are that we found Carole and Kevin!❤️ Exceptional care was provided during Bacon's overnight stay. From the moment we dropped him off until we picked him up, our minds were at ease knowing he was in such capable hands. Communication was outstanding throughout the entire process. We got regular messages and photos, which truly allowed us to relax and enjoy our time away knowing Bacon was happy and content. PWe loved that their own fur babies were very much loving to our Baconator! We appreciated their dedication to maintaining a pet-friendly atmosphere. Most importantly, Bacon returned to us happy and healthy, which speaks volumes about the level of care he received. It's clear that Carole & Kevin are not just pet sitters; they are true animal lovers who genuinely care for the well-being of their furry guests. We cannot recommend Carole & Kevin highly enough. If you're looking for reliable, caring, and attentive rover sitters for your beloved pet, look no further. Bacon is already looking forward to his next stay with them!❤️🐾

Information Carole & Kevin S. would like to know about your pet

Let us know if your dog has any special needs, for instance, afraid of thunder, firecrackers, medication, or does not like being near other dogs, cats, likes quiet time on their own cave, or likes full on cuddles all the time.

A typical day

Once inside our home, we keep them safe on the other side of the front porch gate. Puppies tend to play with each other and tire themselves out. If we have a puppy with high energy we throw a ball, in back yard to get rid of energy. Will walk if we have the proper harness and leash, if required. We provide comfy surroundings so they may relax and feel safe. We are proud to get to know your dog and fulfill their individual needs.
