Information Douglas A. would like to know about your pet

During our initial meeting, I'll take a moment to discuss any dietary restrictions or physical restrictions your dog may have. This helps ensure that each visit is safe, comfortable, and enjoyable for your pup.

A typical day

I provide regular walks, visits to the local park for playtime, including games like fetch and Frisbee, and-upon your approval -leisurely walks along the beach. My goals is to keep your dog active, engaged, and happy during our time together.

Pet care experience

I've always had animals growing up. My last dog was a Siberian Husky. I spoiled her all 14 years of her life. These days I help out by watching dogs of all breeds and sizes. Just let me know if you're pup has any curtain needs. I'm happy to make sure they're comfortable and cared for.

Doug took such an amazing care of our high energy pup! He walked her three times while we were at a wedding to make sure she had enough exercise and could relax :) She slept through on the ride home! She liked him immediately and was very relaxed when we came back to pick her up :) He was also very thoughtful of communication and made sure we were able to enjoy our time at the wedding!

My dog always comes home happy after spending a day with Douglas. He’s very attentive and takes great care of my high-maintenance senior Chihuahua! Five stars all the way!!

Doug sent photos, so I could see my 14 year old terrier was relaxed and well cared for. It was a relief knowing she was happy and comfortable while I was away. Highly recommend to anyone looking for trustworthy and caring dog boarding.

Douglas is wonderful! My senior chihuahua can be high maintenance and doesn’t warm up to a lot of people, but was very comfortable with Douglas and had a great day hanging out at his house. I will be using him to dogsit again for sure! Highly recommend.
