I’ve take care of dogs and cats since I was 12. I currently have a 7 year old light yellow lab who is very friendly and I rescued a lab/beagle mix who was afraid of everything that now loves to play with other dogs of all types, but still has a fear of children.

Ernie always comes home tired and happy. Donald is usually available on short notice. Ernie likes a lot of attention and he gets it at Donald‘s house. He has helped us out a lot in last-minute situations. I highly recommend this sitter.

Donald was great with helping Ginger adjust and get comfortable staying away from home. He sent many updates, photos and videos, so we could see how she was getting along. He was very responsive with messages. Ginger had a great stay and settled in well!

My pups were comfortable staying with Don. They had a blast playing with his dogs and I knew they were well taken care of. We will definitely be using his services in the future!

My dogs had a lot of fun staying with Donald! Love the large fenced in back yard and having access to the cameras was awesome! Was nice to check in on the dogs whenever they were playing outside. We got updates and photos as well which was great!

Safety, trust & environment

I have a giant fenced in yard with an electronic dog door that lets dogs go in and out as they please and once I feel comfortable with their behavior they are given that freedom. This will only accommodate to a certain size dog. (Large lab/skinny poodle) (Although bigger dogs have found ways to use it)

Pets

A typical day

Between my fenced in yard that your dog will be able to play anytime with mine in the backyard, and the multiple walks per day that we will take, your dog will go home happy and tired.

0 to 15 lbs
16 to 40 lbs
41 to 100 lbs
over 101 lbs
Unspayed females accepted, neutered males only
No females in heat
Donald can host up to 5 pets per night
I would need to know your dog's eating habits and their activity level. Does your dog graze all day for food or will it be fine with a scheduled time to eat. Does your dog do well outside, does it like to dig or is it destructive if bored. How often is your dog crated and where does your dog sleep at night.
