Happy and Safe stays!

Pet care experience

I have a good sized back yard so plenty of space to run around. My own dogs have a big room of their own to stay in so your dog will have plenty of space to be comfortable (I do not allow them to interact with dogs in my care as to avoid any issues or scuffles). I do ask that we set a meet and greet prior to booking the stay to discuss the needs of your pets and to ensure we are a good fit! I was recently laid off due to impacts from COVID-19 so I am free any day at this time. I Can provide as many updates as you feel is needed or desired and have a dedication to ensuring dogs in my care are attended to the entire time! Your pets will be happy and well care for as I have worked almost 2 years at a job primarily focused on the well-being of dogs and hold that knowledge with me to ensure my stays are as safe as I can control.

I've known and worked with Dustin as a colleague, as well as a dear friend. My dog loves him so much and lights up everytime he comes in the room. He puts off the best vibes to all of the dogs because he's simply the best kind of person. You couldn't pick a more responsible, knowledgeable and loving individual to care for your beloved pet!

Dustin is absolutely amazing with dogs. My little dude LOVES him, and he is very picky when it comes to who he lets pet him or pick him up or hang with him. Dustin managed to win him over without even using treats which was a miracle tbh. Highly recommend!

I have known Dustin for a little over a year. Dustin is very passionate about animals, and treats all of them with love and kindness. He loves to spoil his own pets and I know he will do the same to for your pet as well. Dustin is well versed in all the safety aspects of watching a pet in his home or when walking them in public. Your pet will truly feel loved and be safe in the care of Dustin and you will be able to have peace of mind while away.

Dustin is amazing with my dogs. They are a little wild, but he knows how to keep them calm and happy. Would 1000% use him again and again!!

Information Dustin R. would like to know about your pet

I do have some important questions I must know before I can agree to watch after your sweet furrie family members: 1. Are they up to date on all vaccinations? (will need a copy of their recent vaccinations to confirm) 2. Do they have any known medical conditions I need to be aware of so I can watch out for any related possible symptoms 3. Do they have any know behavioral issues that I need to work around such as resource guarding(food/water bowl, toys, or people)? 4. How frequently do you want updates and pictures (please try to be as specific as you can as I want to ensure I am providing 100% best service for you)? 5. Does your pet suffer from any degree of separation anxiety and if so, what are the best ways to help calm them to help them get past that while with me? this is not an exhaustive list of questions I will want to go over which is why I like to do a meet and greet, preferably in person (we can social distance!) to best determine your every need for the stay.

A typical day

The back yard has plenty of space for them to walk and run. There is a nearby park that is a lovely place to walk dogs as well. I can walk them around my neighborhood too if you'd like them to really get out and move around.
