When Your Dog Needs a Vacation

Pet care experience

We have had our own pets for over 50 years. We started in the pet service over 13 years ago. During the summer they enjoy swimming in our pool and going out on boat rides with us. They have the run of the house and our yard. We have bred dogs and birds over the years. Our clients have used our services for 13 years. Our Veterinarian and clients recommend us. I am retired from Management in the transportation industry. My wife is a retired registered nurse working in the emergency room a Toms River l hospital. She has been a groomer since she was 14 years old and we offer that service to our clients. We know that your dog is a part of your family and they become part of our family.

Our Frenchie, Ferdi, had a great first week with Doug and Cindy! He even game them parting kisses when we picked him up. They were truly excellent, loving and caring, sending us photos and updates every day. A wonderful experience!

Penny has stayed with Doug numerous times. Doug and Cyndy are very warm and caring, and Penny truly loves her “vacations” in her home away from home. We have no worries when she’s there and it’s much less stressful to leave her when we go away. We feel very fortunate to have found them through Rover.

Douglas is wonderful. My dog fell in love with him and wouldn't leave his side. This was our fist long term (a week) boarding and we were very nervous. Doug made it easy with updates and pictures. We had a serious problem during the trip and his updates and pictures made it easier for us to deal with other problems and have no worries about our dog. She made new friends too. Hoping we will use him in the future. One other thing, Doug pointed out some things that we needed to teach our dog to make it easier to board her in the future. I appreciate that and we are teaching her new things. Great stay all around. Thank you Douglas.

Information Douglas J. would like to know about your pet

We like a meet and greet with the dog and their owners. Our dogs are friendly and get along with other dogs. Our first priority is to our dogs so we would like to make sure that the other dog is not aggressive. No preference on the breed.

A typical day

Our dogs have the use of our pool during the summer months and usually go out for boat rides. We play with the dogs at the beach area about a three blocks away. This is great walk down to the beach area. We also have dog walks provide by the town and walk through wildlife refuge. We play with the dogs inside and outside the house
