Your pup is part of our family!

Pet care experience

Hello there! My husband, Zach, and I have a genuine love for dogs and a passion for their well-being, we are here to offer your dog a comfortable home away from home! Zach is every dog's best friend from the moment they meet him and always takes time to give pups plenty of pets and cuddles. I love to get outside and will gladly provide your pup with ample exercise no matter the weather. We are both patient and skilled with handling dogs that have special needs or considerations. We pride ourselves on making your pet feel safe, comfortable, and loved throughout their stay. We have a wirehaired pointing griffon puppy that is under one year of age. She is very friendly and loves to play with other dogs. Your dog will become part of our family while they are here. Your dog will receive plenty of attention, affection, and personalized care. We've been the go-to pet sitters for friends and family for as long as we can remember. From puppies to energetic adolescents and seniors, we are experienced with dogs of all ages and breeds. Your pup will be in capable hands. Zach and I both work full time, but always provide a potty and play break mid-day. We both work less than 10 minutes from our house so we have plenty of flexibility to accommodate your pet’s specific needs. We genuinely adore dogs, and we treat each and every one as if they were our own cherished family member. Their joy, comfort, and well-being are at the heart of what we do. We can't wait to meet you and your pup, so don't hesitate to get in touch!

Our puppy was well cared for by Erin & Zach. Even when an unexpected medical emergency arose they went Above and Beyond to ensure she was cared for in our absence. She ended up having surgery and went home from that to their home where they then had to manage a completely different feeding schedule, medications and keeping our pup separated from their own, as ours was unable to play. We would certainly recommend others consider them as a sitter and we would place our pup with them again in the future, knowing she’ll be well cared for.? Thank you Erin, Zach & Bohdi

Erin took amazing care of my dogs! She took them on walks and let them play outside, all their favorite things! She sent me update photos, and was so easy to communicate and work with! I hope this is a long time connection, I love knowing my dogs are in good hands!

Just had another great experience with Erin and Zach. From the pictures it looked like Barlow was at summer camp staying with them. I very much appreciated their flexibility and all the updates.

Erin and Zach were very accommodating, especially given my travel plans were last minute. I appreciated all the pictures and knowing my fur babies were in good hands and my dog was getting lots of exercise.

Information Erin D. would like to know about your pet

It is essential to know about a dog's exercise needs, dietary preferences or restrictions, and any specific routines or habits they follow. We also like to know about their temperament or quirks, especially before talking them out for walks!

A typical day

I love to go for walks in wooded areas and like to get outside every day. There are so many great options in Palmer and our house is very close to the Lazy Mountain trailhead and Matanuska River Park. We love to play in our home too whether it is a game of tug or hide and seek. We are actively working on basic obedience training with our pup, so your dog will likely participate in daily training sessions as well.
