Trusted Care for Your Best Friend

Pet care experience

I promise the highest level of care for your dogs. Been around dogs my entire life, been heavily involved in fostering, training and rescue for last 9 years. Love the big bully's. Your dog(s) will be treated as a member of my family. I will engage in fetch, tug or whatever play the they and any type of preferred play, along with multiple daily walks. I have a large fenced in backyard. Large home and can gate off to create separation if needed. You will receive daily digital updates and photos so you can rest easy and see that your dog is happy, healthy, and well cared for.

With very short notice, Ed was able to accommodate our request for dog care for Maisie, our Golden Retriever. We were on an 11 day cruise and throughout our trip received pictures and updates on how Maisie was doing. She is a 1 year old golden with high energy and can be a handful. Not only did Ed improve her behavior on walks, but also worked on getting her to stop jumping on everyone she meets. It was wonderful to see her play with his dog and his children. Needless to say we wondered if she would want to come home with us because of all the attention she received. We highly recommend Ed and the wonderul care that he and his family provided for our Maisie.
