Playful & Energetic Animal lovers

Pet care experience

Both of us have had animals all of our lives. From Snakes to Tigers. Ashley has interned at the ASPCA (American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals). We've watched our friends pets in time of need and decided it was time to start a business doing something that we love. We are both high energy, which means your pet will never be neglected or left in a room bored. We also have a long haired Chihuahua that is 7. Chris is currently a full time online student, so he is always home. Ashley works part time a few days during the week. We are very flexible when it comes to our schedule and it is very rare that nobody is home. We live on a huge lot with a giant fenced in back yard. We have a large, tiled, air-conditioned room with a couch bed that is available for nappies whenever the babies decide they need sleep. Our neighborhood is very pet friendly. We both maintain an active lifestyle and exercise frequently, so we look forward to having the opportunity to take the dogs on long walks. There are two dog parks within walking distance from our home that we frequently take our Long-Haired Chihuahua to. Her name is Alfi, and she is really laid back and friendly with other dogs. We also love taking pictures so don't be surprised if you receive photos of your baby while she stays with us.

My dog seemed to love his time with Chris and Jana especially the nice backyard!

Chris and Jana provided a fun and safe home away from home for our two very active dogs. The dogs were so happy and healthy, and everything was so simple, it gave us the peace of mind to really enjoy our time away. Chris and Jana are thoughtful, great with communication, and very customer focused!

I met Chris and Ashley a few months ago at a restaurant and through conversation discovered that they enjoyed dog sitting. I have a few boxers that mean the world to me, so I am very skeptical about who I leave my dogs with alone. I am not out of town often, but a couple times per month I have been letting them take care of my dogs while I get out of the house for a while. These two really do a great job. The dogs seem excited every time I drop them off. Last weekend they actually put together a photo album for me, free of charge.. they said "we appreciate your business". Their customer service is amazing, when they tell me they are going to be at my house at a certain time, its within +/- 1-2 minutes of that time, EVERYTIME. These two take being responsible seriously and go above and beyond to make sure I am satisfied. If only the rest of the world would run their business the way these two do. Amazing, Lawrence P.

I have known Chris for over 20 years. A few years ago I accepted a position that required me to travel frequently, so I needed someone to take care of my two dogs. I tried one of these commercial dog boarding businesses, but my dogs always seemed to act different when I picked them up after being out of town. Chris offered to help me and has been a blessing ever since. I never have to worry about my babies when they are with him. He is reliable, punctual, and responsible. I receive text messages from him throughout the day with pictures of my animals at the park or playing in his back yard. He has truly been a godsend and I am so fortunate to have developed a friendship with him. Not only are the dogs in a good mood when I pick them up, they go crazy whenever they see Chris when I drop them off for the day.

Information Chris & Jana S. would like to know about your pet

The number one thing I focus on is the animal's temperament, this way I immediately know what personality I am dealing with. This helps me to not only place the dog with opposite personality animals, but also lets me know that the animal may require extra attention or supervision. Another important thing I would like to know is if the dog has a reputation for running off and not coming back. Now that those two are out of the way, I love feeding dogs treats, so I always ask the owner if they have any restrictions as to what their animal can have. I do not have any breed preferences. I love all dogs.

A typical day

There are 2 parks close by that we walk to regularly, the dogs love it. We also have a 60x60 fenced in back yard with ropes and other toys for the dogs to play with. We also have balls, frisbees, tug of war tires and a water hose.
