Home part time + Safe + Fenced Yard

Pet care experience

Anytime our friends or family are headed out of town, we are the go to dog sitters for all of them. Everyone knows their pups are safe at our house and they’re guaranteed to receive tons of pictures and updates on their pup while vacationing. My husband, Pedro, is the other half of your pet care team. Together, we make sure the pup dogs at our house are rarely home alone or crated. My husband and I volunteer as foster pawrents for many dogs. We have been vetted and trusted with foster pups from more than one Dog Rescue. I am a nurse and my husband works in finance. Although we both work full time, my husband and I have flexible schedules and work from home frequently. Because of that, our pups are rarely home alone and almost never home alone for more than 4 hours. Because of our flexibility, if your pup needs to be let out more often we are happy to adjust our schedule accordingly. We have a fully fenced back yard with lots of green space. We have three adult dogs all under 30lbs who do great with other pups. They are accustomed to new dogs visiting frequently because of how often we dogsit and foster. Any dog staying at our house gets lots of excercise and play. Our dogs tend to be lower energy and love to lay on the couch and watch a movie with us. For higher energy visitors, we pull out a tug rope, peanut butter mats, kongs, and tennis balls to make sure no one is bored. For safety purposes, we crate all of the dogs when we are not at home. While the dogs are playing we monitor for signs that dogs may not be getting along or tolerating play well and separate the dogs or give them breaks as necessary.

I planned a meet and greet for Stagg with Emily and Pedro’s dogs before Stagg’s overnight. Emily and Pedro were welcoming, showed me where he would be staying and all the amenities! They were both educated on dog behavior and conscious of my rules to mirror those during Stagg’s stay - they also had a form to complete where I entered all of the do’s and don’ts. Throughout Stagg’s stay they were communicative and sent the cutest photos and videos. Highly recommend and will use again!

We had a GREAT experience with Emily and Pedro! It was our first time leaving him and it couldn't have gone better. We got daily updates and our pup looked happy and busy with his new buddies!

Emily & Pedro did a phenomenal job caring for our two pups while we were away for the weekend. They made sure to send us photos of our dogs everyday & our pups were living the dream playing with their dogs!!

Safety, trust & environment

We have a fully fenced yard. Our dog, Ginger, is a {former} escape artist, so our back yard is very well secured. There is plenty of space for the pups to run, play, and potty. We have lots of space in the dogs to hangout and play. Pups are allowed on furniture and we have multiple dog beds around the house to relax on. We prioritize keeping our home clean and safe, but we have hardwood floors throughout in case of any accidents! Dogs are separated (in crates or by baby gate) when unsupervised in order to ensure that dogs are monitored together at all times.

Information Emily & Pedro V. would like to know about your pet

We ask that all of our stays fill out our Google form questionnaire prior to their stay! This helps us to ensure that we are familiar with all of your pets needs and mannerisms! https://forms.gle/7NseNvArVU4AyfQB8 Additionally, we do ask that you please be honest about your pet as much as possible. If your dog is not potty trained, crate trained, or is in heat, please let us know. We do accept dogs in those circumstances on certain occasions, but cannot always do so. We also recognize that sometimes pets behaviors change when nervous. We request that you please be conscious that we are hosting your pet in our home with our pets and appreciate the courtesy of honesty.

A typical day

To keep the dogs we watch active, we have lots of playtime in the backyard. We practice the training their pawrents are working on. Also, we love to get out peanut butter mats and kong toys to keep the dogs mentally stimulated. Tug toys are a favorite at our house. Sedona especially loves play tug with visiting dogs.
