Highlights
Pet care experience
Couple looking for companionship
Except for college, I have spent my life looking after and caring for dogs and cats. My wife and I are retired, 68 years old, been living in a four acre home in New Canaan, Ct. for 34 years, miss the three Australian Shepherds we raised, but now want to travel. Our best option we think is to bring in a boarder for companionship.

Ratings and reviews
Doug Mackay is a dog lover and responsible caregiver for pets and property. He has raised 3 dogs who lived long, happy and healthy lives.
Doug takes incredible care of our dogs. He is the consummate dog person. He is always very responsive, self sufficient and easy to work with. He’s always our first call. Can’t recommend him enough!
Doug loves pets and they love him. He is caring, fun, professional and highly communicative with photo and video updates. He is punctual and flexible when our schedule changes. Our whole family enjoys Doug and looks forward to seeing him.
I've known Doug M for years, and one thing that has always stood out is his genuine love for animals. He has an incredible way with dogs, as he is patient, kind, and attentive to their needs. The care and devotion he gave his own dog over the years was something special, and anyone who knows him would have complete confidence leaving their pet with him. I'm confident that he'll treat your pet with the same love, attention, and respect that he gave his own. If you're looking for someone dependable, trustworthy, and truly compassionate, I can't recommend him highly enough. Your pets will be safe, well cared for, and genuinely loved while they're with him.

Schedule
Both of us are now retired, living at home full time. Our three Australian Shepherds have now passed. They loved the four acres we have to run, and the four thousand square foot home for comfort. We have a working invisible fence if your dog is comfortable with that, if not, plenty of space for walking, a fenced pool, and we belong to the Country Club of New Canaan for great winter runs.
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
We have four acres of lawn for your dog to run, and our plan is to board only one dog per visit, unless your family owns another. This is the best way to keep your dog healthy, happy, and safe. That and we live in a no outlet quiet street, with years of experience keeping dogs safe.
