Giving your pup a place to relax

Pet care experience

Your pup's stay with me always comes included with a friend! My pup is a 6 year old Korean Jindo named Gong Ju (or GJ for short) that loves to play with friends as well as just lounge around the house. I run throughout the week, so if your pup enjoys that kind of thing just let me know and s/he is welcome to join! I've been dogsitting for 4+ years and enjoy all breeds and sizes of dogs, if you have any special requests just ask and I'm sure I can accommodate. I can't wait to meet your pup!

David was absolutely wonderful with my fur kids! He took such great care of them and I highly recommend his services!

David was amazing at watching our dog Mochi! He sent us pictures and updates so that we could see he was happy and comfortable while we were away. David was extremely flexible with our schedule and accommodating requests (which included taking extra medicine and wearing a cone at the last minute due to injury). At the end of the week Mochi seemed a little sad to come home with us since he had such a great time with David!

David was great! We were a little anxious as it was our first time leaving our dog with him but everything could not have gone better. The enclosed yard was perfect for our large dog to exercise and got outside, and it was nice for our dog to have David's dog as a companion. David kept us informed during our trip although it was limited due to our remote location off the grid more than anything else. We would definitely look to board our dog with David again!

Your dog will absoloutely love hanging out with David and Gongju! David knows of all the best dog parks in the area and will be sure to tire your pup out. David has experience with all kinds of dogs and has proven his dependability not only with his own dog, but with all of the dogs he has fostered as well. He has shown extreme compassion and accommodation with senior dogs, younger dogs, and dogs that have needed medication or special attention. You will not be disappointed if you leave your fur baby with David! He will make them feel comfortable and like they are on vacation!

Information David A. would like to know about your pet

My pup is pretty friendly but I would prefer to have a meet and greet before a first stay so that everyone can feel comfortable.

A typical day

I always have an assortment of toys and bones at home and love taking walks around the lake by my place, especially when as it starts to get nice out.
