A home with a playful pup!

Pet care experience

My girlfriend, Meg, and I love dogs, and we would love to help you take care of yours! We have a playful dog at home, and he loves having playmates. We also have a couple of friendly cats who are happy to help supervise puppy play. :) If your dog is not partial to cats, we have a cat-free zone for the dogs to play! Since both of us work from home a few days a week, one of us will be home with your pup during the day to be let out in back for a potty break, taken on a walk, or just for cuddles. We have both owned dogs throughout our lives, so we have a lot of experience with different breeds, and we are happy to help we training if there is something you and your pup are working on. We would love to give your pup an enjoyable place to relax and play.

We would be truly lost without Dustin, Meg, and Duke! Our work and travel schedules have been such a mess and they are SO flexible with us! AND Lenny and Duke are the best of buds and wear eachother out so, instead of Lenny just sitting home alone bored out of his mind, he gets a ton of play time and is exhausted when we pick him up. Thanks so much Dustin and Meg!

My go-to hands down. So easy to coordinate with and she comes home smarter, better socialized and happier every time.

Absolutely ideal stay with Dustin. Pick up and drop off was a breeze. Dua had so much fun playing with Duke, she came home so exhausted and happy all she wanted to do was cuddle up on the couch. She got to meet their cats and I was thrilled to start socializing her with cats. She seemed to really benefit from socializing with Duke as well. She’s already noticeably better meeting other dogs on walks. All around it felt like I left her at school, and both she and I loved it. Not to mention Dustin sent me pictures throughout that really made my day. 10/10 will ask them first whenever I’m out of town.

Information Dustin H. would like to know about your pet

We are comfortable with most dogs although Duke sometimes needs time to warm up to husky breeds in particular. Other than that, we'd like to know about medications ahead of time as well as any special diet needs.

A typical day

We can take a walk through the quiet neighborhoods or on the busy 606 trail. We can also go to the nearby dog park to enjoy the outdoors, and the company of other dogs. Aside from that, our dog, Duke, is happy to help keep your dog entertained with games of chase and tug-of-war!
