Hitchcock Woods Access Homebodies
Pet care experience
Raised on a farm, animals have been part of our lives for, well, our whole lives! We've raised and trained our current 3 year old pup and two 6 year old cats, and they mean the world to us. Our 2-acre property has a fenced yard for constantly-available playtime and direct access to Hitchcock Woods for the dogs who love to hike!
Reviews
Absolutely the best. Claire and Jesse are kind, patient and loving with our babies. We are so lucky to know them
Just can't say enough good things about Claire and Jesse. They are incredibly kind and loving with our dogs. We are so lucky to know them - a true blessing
Nice folks who were wonderful with my dog.
Claire and Jesse are like family to our girls ( dogs). They are so kind and considerate- we feel so lucky to have them with our girls when we are gone. Grace, Lucy and Molly love having them stay when we are out of town.
About Claire and Jesse B.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
We lavish all our boarders with the same attention, snuggles, and exercise-balanced treats that our pets love. Since our cats have been part of the family the longest, your dog will need to be able to refrain from chasing them, so they can enjoy all their usual nap spots. While we love a guest, the safety and happiness of our full time residents is non-negotiable. We crate for sleeping so your pet can have a "home base" and not get up to trouble in an unfamiliar environment. We are happy to share Rascal's food, but if your dog has a sensitive stomach or a special diet, then they will need to bring their own food. We also expect them to arrive with their own leash, collar (with ID tag), crate or carrier for sleeping, and any toys, blankets, or other comfort items that smell like home to relax them and set them up for success during their stay with us. We can't wait to love on your pet!
Home
Information Claire and Jesse B. would like to know about your pet
Our cats are skittish and have free reign of the house, so it is imperative that your dog will be able to refrain from chasing or injuring them. If your dog has never met a cat, then your dog chases cats. An unfamiliar environment comes with a lot of extra stimuli without adding in a forbidden game of chase, so please do not put our pets in danger by dropping off a dog that you are not sure will be gentle with our animals.
A typical day
Our dog usually walks several miles a day to provide all of us with some exercise and Vitamin D as a work break, and we will take yours along too! We typically stroll through our neighborhood or Hitchcock woods on a leash. Rascal will chase a ball in our yard for as many hours as we can spare from work and chores, and our visitors love to join in or take the opportunity for a nap on the sunny porch

Availability
We both work from home with Fridays off every week. Our dog takes at least one long walk a day with plenty of play time outside if weather allows. In order to keep your pet exercised and happy, we expect good leash behavior and the ability to respond to basic commands- or at least be able to listen to "no" to make all of our lives less stressful!
