This has been my primary endeavor for over 10 years. I am here on the property most of the time. There’s always a lot of upkeep to be done with the property and the dogs spend a lot of time outside with me.

Information Dean K. would like to know about your pet
It is important to me to get a feel for the rapport you have with your dog. How well do you communicate with them? Are there any behavioral issues? We don’t just board and babysit them. We want to send yours home a better dog than when he came. If yours has tireless energy, we'll send him home exhausted. If your dog is a love muffin, we'll butter him up. If he's a tough guy, we'll rough house with him. We mandate good behavior. If your dog is a yapper, you'll have to let me teach him not to be. If there aren't other dogs here, I’ll care for 'aggressive' dogs that other sitters won't take. Special stipulations and a $10 per day surcharge would apply. I will not take in pit bulls. I'm sorry, but I just don't trust them.
A typical day
Your dog won't just get a 12 minute walk, or an 18 minute playtime on Astro-turf, laid on the asphalt parking lot, in a chain-linked fenced area. At our place activities are endless. Dogs have a blast. They run through the woods, splash through the springs, roll in the mud, retrieve tennis balls, and endlessly chase each other around our 3 acre field. It’s always fun to hike to the American Tobacco Trail. Your Andy can adventure in the woods, sniffing at everything and digging at the interesting stuff. Your Freddie can frolic with other dogs, or visit the chickens on the barn tour. When we head inside, we can sack out on the sofa, and watch TV game shows, college basketball or Netflix ...OR, if we're tired, just snooze out on the sun deck. You are paying us to LOVE your dog, and that is what we do!

Dog Lover on 28 Acres-Okelly Chapel
Pet care experience
If you are a regular and can't get booked on the website, call me and hopefully we can squeeze you in. ...You pay us to love your dog(s), and that is what we do. Growing up, my family raised German Sheppards, along with the horses, cows, cats, chickens, geese and a myriad of other animals. I'm located on the same 28 acres, conveniently located off O'Kelly Chapel Road in extreme north-east Chatham County/north-west Cary. If the three acre Frisbee field or tennis ball turf isn't enough space, or the 20 acres of woods is too confining, we can head over to the American Tobacco Trail that borders our property. After 33 years of an adult life in Atlanta, I moved back home to care for my now dearly departed parents. Since I work from home, I am here at the house most of the time. Your dog also gets loved by resident assistant JT, along with a cavalcade of ongoing visitors, here to administer affection.

Another 5 star stay with Dean! Nala always has so much fun!
Thank you Dean for taking such good care of Captain. It was a pleasure working with you.
My sweet pups loved spending time with Dean and Brooks will bring his own balls to destroy next time! 😀 Dean was great with communication and made sure we knew our boys were well taken care of! Can’t wait to head back to Doggie Camp with Dean!🐶
Dean is great with our Odin! He is gracious and patient with our big scaredy cat! We can’t wait for our next visit!
