A lifetime of love for animals
Pet care experience
We have raised high-energy border collies since they were puppies to be well-behaved "family members." We have watched dogs of all kinds (including great danes, pitbulls, huskies, and jack russell terriers) for many friends and relatives through the years. Our time on Rover has given us even more experience with dogs of all ages and sizes (puppies, seniors, and dogs from 2lbs to 200lbs). We love watching dogs and seeing them play and interact with each other. We also have experience with cats of all ages (from bottle-fed kittens to senior cats). We currently have 3 cats, and have experience with different feeding schedules and pill regimens.
Reviews
Derek & Chelsea are warm, kind & attentive to our dog Widgit, who loves going there and running around in a big fenced in yard w/the other dogs!

My two pups are always very well taken care of Chelsea and Derek are very accommodating. Thank you again!
About Chelsea & Derek M.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
Owning border collies means you are always ready to be active. And all that activity means keeping them safe and healthy, while also having fun. We provide runners and tie outs for outdoor play. We use gates to separate areas of the house and to make sure feeding time isn't stressful. We have our doorway penned off so no one goes outside without a leash on. We have a few crates to keep dogs separate and safe while sleeping at night.

Information Chelsea & Derek M. would like to know about your pet
Let me know if there is anything specific to your dog that I need to be aware of. This could include special dietary or medication instructions, behaviors that are specific to your pet, and temperament towards other animals. Also, if there is something specific you are working on with your dog, we would love to know that too!
A typical day
We have a big yard with lots of room to play fetch and other outside games. We have a large inside space for the dogs to play when it is cold or rainy. There are also several parks and hikes near our house that we love to go on with our dog and any dogs we are watching.

We will send photos of your pet enjoying their time however often you prefer!
