Safety, trust & environment

We have a big backyard and I always supervise the dogs when they are out for their playtime! We also have a big front yard where I do short leash walks and live on a quiet gravel road for much longer leash walks. Dogs can be crated at night if that's the usual routine, or have their choice of beds to sleep in - my kids LOVE when dogs choose to cuddle with them at night!

Information Dale R. would like to know about your pet

Is your dog a social butterfly or more of a loner? Will they enjoy being part of the pack or will they need some alone time? Are they crate trained? Do they sleep in a crate at night or will they want to snuggle in bed with a human?

A typical day

Dogs in our house go out for a morning run before the kids go to school, then spend the next hour or so running around the house while the kids get ready to go! After the bus picks up the kids the dogs go for another run and get treats when they get back inside. Our dogs usually choose this time to nap or we go for one on one walks down our quiet country road. We spend more time outside in the afternoon, running through the trees, chasing balls or just relaxing in the sun if the weather is right! Around 4pm the dogs line up at the front window waiting for the kids to come home and then its time for playtime outside again! At bedtime dogs can be crated if that's their routine or they can choose where they'd like to sleep!

Dale was so friendly and I could tell she just loves dogs. She sent us photos and was flexible with drop off and pick up times. I highly recommend Dale.

I would recommend this place to anyone and everyone. Absolutely nop notch and phenomenal. Updates and an absolute joy for us and the dogs (obviously). If you want the right people this is the spot. I would use again in a heartbeat, without question. Amazing.
