Loving and Fun Dog Lover

Hello my husband (Tony) and I have been pet sitting for over 20 years. When your dog is with us we try and keep to the same schedule that you have, so there isn't much change for them. When we pet sit I love to send photos and updates to the families to let them know how their dog is doing, because I know it can be hard leaving behind your four legged family member. I think it’s important to know that your animal is loved and cared for while you are away to make your time apart a lot easier. I treat any dog as I would my own because I know that they are family! We have a border collie who gets lots of love and attention between me and my husband and he always loves to have fur friends come stay with us. If I do work my husband at this time is working from home most days so he is home with our pup, daughter and any others that we sit. Our dog He is super friendly and loves dogs of all sizes (From tiny 4 lb puppies to his fur cousin a Doberman). We do have a baby so if your dog is not kid/baby friendly this is not a good home for them to stay at.

I couldn’t be more happier to have Christina watching my sweet dog for me. She kept me updated it thru the whole time he was with her and from the pictures I can tell he was having the best time with her family and Lando!

This was the first time we had traveled without our 2-year old Sheepadoodle and I was really nervous about how he would do. The meet and greet made me feel like we found a great ‘match’ for me and him. Christina sent great updates showing how he was settling in and being a good boy. He loved his pupcation time and even went back to say ‘bye’ to their dog before jumping in the car. They will be my first call for our next trip!

Christina and her husband were wonderful! My dog Toby fit right in with the family and seem to enjoy every minute with them. She sent me pictures every day and texted so that I felt reassured that Toby was well taken care of and I could enjoy my vacation. I would not hesitate to use them again!!! Great experience for Toby and for me!!!

Schedule

Between my husband and myself one of us is home almost always as he works from home most days. If he goes to the office it’s only 10 minutes away. So it’s easy for us to keep to a good routine with dogs in our home. We may have to go to do things but are never gone more than 5 hours max.

Pets

A typical day

I can take your dog(s) on walks or do activities that they enjoy and keep them busy. Our dog loves to play if other dogs are interested so usually dogs go home exhausted from all of the playing. Our dog loves the dog park, playing fetch or playing with other dogs.

I would like to know, what activities they enjoy, when and how often they eat, if they are aggressive to other animals or people, are they house trained if they got off a lead would they run, and what they are afraid of. Do they have separation anxiety and can be left alone. If they are good around babies and kids?
