Such a wonderful experience with Doug and Michelle. My very anxious dog looked relaxed and at home in every picture. Communication was easy and thorough. My pup's complicated medication and treat schedule were followed perfectly!! I very highly recommend this sitter!!

Doggy Day Care • Jul 14, 2024

Comfortable and caring is exactly how I would describe Douglas. From the moment you meet him you can just tell that he cares about dogs. Miles came home very happy and we will definitely be back. I highly recommend!

Rudy had another amazing stay with Doug! I constantly received the cutest photo's and updates which helped we me enjoy our vacation instead of worrying. Just seeing Rudy so happy made the time apart that much better. Rudy cannot wait to see his buddy again!

Temperament and any medical issues or extra attention needed. Does your pet like to jump on furniture? That's ok with me! How often do they need to go out?
