Loving, Experienced Dog Care
Welcome! I’m David, a lifelong dog lover offering personalized care in Lincoln, NE. My family and I have raised dogs from puppies, which has taught us the ins and outs of training, nutrition, and unconditional love. We ensure your pup feels right at home. Our cozy, pet-friendly home features a secure fenced yard for safe playtime and plenty of space for relaxation. We believe in high-quality, tailored care—think daily walks, plenty of fresh water, and lots of affection. I respond quickly, offer free meet-and-greets, and provide photo updates to keep you connected. DUE TO SAFETY CONCERNS WE ARE UNABLE TO TAKE ANY PIT BULL OR PIT MIXES. We love all dogs but please understand our position.

Great experience.


David & Shelly took great care of our dog, Link! ! They sent pics daily and were great communicators before, during and after his stay! Will be booking with them again! Thank you David & Shelly!!

Wonderful experience!! My two dogs had such a great time. Super grateful that they were in David and Shelley’s hands while we were away. 10/10!


Perfect thank you!

My girl was in good hands while I was out of town. She loved playing with the other dogs. Would recommend.

Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
Our home has a fenced-in back yard (six foot privacy fence). We have pets of our own (dog and cat) so our home and lifestyle are oriented towards a safe and happy pet environment. We can lock the gates to our fenced in back yard to ensure no one accidentally opens them and unintentionally lets a pupper out. We have crates setup in our house if needed. We have dedicated feeding area with fresh circulating water always available. We live with our pets and allow them to be with us wherever we are in the house. We use Ehler’s veterinary and also can utilize the emergency veterinary clinic for off hour emergencies. DUE TO SAFETY CONCERNS WE ARE UNABLE TO TAKE ANY PIT BULL OR PIT MIXES. We love all dogs but please understand our position.
Pets
A typical day
Dogs are free to spend time with us throughout our home. They can spend time in the fenced in back yard chasing rabbits and squirrels or just hanging out. We can take them for a walk through our neighborhood to burn off some energy and get some exercise. We typically do not leave our dogs outside other than to potty and play. Otherwise the dogs will be inside the house with us.
