Vacation for Pets

Pet care experience

I grew up with mainly bird dogs. I owned at one time a black lab and a border collie and 4 cats. I have taken care my friends' dog Eli since he was a pup. Go to Claire's?? He can't get into the car fast enough to come for a visit.

Parker had a fantastic time with Claire. She took great care of him while he stayed with her. I highly recommend Claire!

Claire was great! Stanley came home tired- and he’s not easy to tire out. Love that she has a big yard, spends a lot of time playing fetch, and has a flexible schedule. Will definitely be using her again. Thanks Claire!

Noel was very well taken care of. Claire went out of her way to make him comfortable. Would definitely recommend her, and use her again.

Claire is a very responsible and trustworthy animal caretaker. She has watched my dogs for years at a week or more at a time. The dogs are always excited when I bring them to Claire’s. They are extremely happy to see her. She is an animal person and the animals know it. When I return they are very well cared for and it gives me peace of mind to know they are happy and healthy. She even watched my Shepard/Roty mix when he was a young pup and did great with him. She is not intimidated by a large active dog, but instead calmly takes charge. She seems to enjoy them as well. I whole heartedly highly recommend Claire.

Safety, trust & environment

I have a large back yard. It is not fenced in and I live near a road, it doesn't seem busy but without a fence, I will not let an animal just run. With that said, any dog I watch needs to be well trained on a leash. If they are couch potatoes, that is somewhat acceptable but I am out in the yard quite a bit.

Information Claire R. would like to know about your pet

Moving to a new house, I need a couple of months to settle in but I truly enjoy the company of a dog. At some point, we may get a fence, I do believe dogs need their exercise as well as humans. Watching someone's pet allows me to pamper them a bit as if they were on vacation.

A typical day

Big back yard. There is some wildlife in the rear of my yard. I would prefer watching people oriented dogs vs a good hunting dog. Couch potato dogs are okay.

Right now I am retired and in the process of moving. I probably won't be able to watch your four-legged friend till about September. At some point I hope to get a few steady customers as I believe familiarity is good for your pet, your piece of mind and my home.
