Ratings and reviews
Derek was wonderful to work with and took such great care of our elderly dog. He ended up struggling a little with us being away from him and Derek did a wonderful job keeping him happy and comfortable in our absence.
Derek was responsive and accommodating. Hunter seemed happy! Thanks for the help!
Derek was great! 100% recommend! Took pictures of our dogs on every visit. Will definitely use him in our future plans.
Derek and his family take such good care of our dogs, we have booked with him several times now. When we drop them off and they go inside his house they don't even look back at us lol. This time we booked last minute and over the 4th of July holiday weekend so it was a double whammy. We were so relieved to find out Derek was available! Thanks to Derek and his family we know our dogs have a home away from home 😊 Thanks again Derek! We'll be booking again soon.
Derek was awesome with our little Beagle. She felt right at home with his 2 boys and she had all the attention and love just like at home!
Derek and his family have been wonderful hosts for my dog. This is our second stay with Derek, and he has been kind and reliable. My dog did not want to leave when I came to pick him up. We will definitely book a stay with Derek again in the future.

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I am an active, animal-loving person excited to offer a safe, caring environment for your beloved pets. Although my yard isn’t fenced, I always keep dogs on a leash when outdoors to ensure their safety. I live in a wonderful, dog-friendly community with plenty of scenic walking paths—perfect for getting fresh air and exercise. I've shared my life with two incredible dogs who each lived happy, healthy lives to the age of 18 before crossing the rainbow bridge. Their memory inspires me to continue giving love and care to other animals. I'd be honored to look after your sweet fur baby and treat them like part of my family while you’re away.

A typical day
I love to take dogs for walks and always make sure they are loved. My goal is to make sure your dog does not become sad and always happy.
