HOME FULL TIME - ONE DOG AT A TIME

Pet care experience

Your dog will feel at home. Why?- When your dog stays with me, he/she will be the only dog in addition to my own your dog will be treated like a member of the family. I provide a dog-loving home with all the comforts. Besides me, my husband also loves dogs staying with us and gives them a lot of love, too. Your dog will have a minimum of 3 walks a day during boardings, plenty of love, playtime and be allowed on the furniture and sleep on the bed if desired. Unlike the doggie hotels or sitters who care for multiple dogs, your dog is treated like a VIP (Very Important Pup). I have had the great privilege to care for many dogs of all ages, including dogs with special needs. I have the love and patience for any dog in my care. I have a fondness for Senior Dogs.. I now have a DOG RAMP to assist those dogs who have difficulty jumping onto and off the furniture. Did I say I love dogs?!!!! I am reliable, flexible and responsible, and will give your dog the best of care. I will always do what I can to accommodate the needs of my clients. I guarantee your dog will be safe, happy and healthy and loved.

My senior pup Rocky stayed with Dean for over two weeks while I was out of the country and I cannot emphasize the level of care, detail and a sort of a unique and tailored agenda that he experienced, (which I am now going to try to replicate!) --nothing short of excellence; from the overwhelming love and affection -to multiple daily walks, photos /videos and check ins. I have found a great match. Rocky is over 16 years old, deaf and has heart issues and was walking 3 times a day, sleeping throughout the night --and having a great time, allowing him to sleep throughout the night. We are already rebooking!

Dean took excellent care of our dog. He sent videos and pics as well as regular updates. We could see how happy our Buster was with Dean. He made sure he knew all the details about Buster’s schedule, diet, and habits. We were able to have a truly relaxing time away knowing our precious pet was so lovingly cared for.

Dean and his husband were very nice. I was a little hesitant to leave Scruffy with "strangers" because I did not know how he would act. But it was like Scruffy always lived in Dean's household. We got updates on how he was doing at least 3 times a day and we were gone for 4 days. Scruffy looked so happy and comfortable at Dean's. If Dean had any questions he did not hesitate to ask. I would recommend Dean to anyone who is thinking about boarding their dog. They will not be sorry

Paco stayed with Dean while I was out of town for the night and I could not have asked for a better person for my baby to be with. Dean was professional, warm, detailed and easy going starting with when I inquired about his availability all the way though the night Paco was in his care! Dean eased my concerns about my pup’s separation anxiety and sent me pictures and updates about him during his stay. It was clear how comfortable my dog was with him. Dean is a gem. This was the first time I’ve had anyone other than my family watch Paco and Dean is now part of that short list! Thank you!

Dog Care is my only job. I am home all day. Some Sitters leave dogs alone while they go out and work other jobs- not in my case. Your dog will never be left alone. In the unlikely event that I do need to leave for a little bit, my husband will stay with your dog.
