David was great with my dog Vega! Very good sitter and my dog enjoyed her time playing on the large property he has.

Our 4 year old lab mix had a great 4 night stay with David. She is very unsure of new people and the meet and greet helped us all feel confident that the stay would work out. David was patient with her and helped her transition well to the new environment. We'll be happy to come back for another stay!

Schedule

I am flexible with schedules and routines. I make sure to get at least one long walk or play session in each day (usually around noon) but I like to spoil our pups with treats, walks, and impromptu play sessions throughout the day. I can also accommodate early morning and late night pick-ups/drop-offs.

Safety, trust & environment

My goal is to provide the easiest and most comfortable experience for both! I consider dogs in my care as part of our family and care for them as such. We have a large fenced-in area and 18 acres of unfenced woodland, fields, and trails. I have crates available for dogs who prefer an enclosed, safe place.

Pets

A typical day

I strive to create a serene and enjoyable experience for all of my furry guests - no matter their age, energy level, or medical needs. Potty breaks are easy and frequent in our fenced-in yard. Depending on weather/trail conditions we go for one or two long walks around our property every day. The lazy Crawfish River runs through our backyard and there are several small ponds on the property where the pups can take a dip. I set aside dedicated nap times and spaces for our pup guests. We create cozy, comfortable spaces where they can relax, unwind, and recharge their batteries.

Please let me know of any pre-existing health conditions, allergies, or medical requirements your pup may have. Please share if your dog has any favorite toys, blankets, or specific comfort items that can help ease their anxiety and make them feel more at home during their stay.
