Couple boards 1 dog at a time

Pet care experience

We will provide love and attention and all the comforts of home for your precious dog. We board only one dog at a time. We had our own dog, a Brittany Spaniel, for 13 years. We miss having a dog and would love to take care of and spend time with yours. We will treat your dog with patience, kindness and affection and will adapt to your dog's needs. We love to walk so your dog will get exercise and have time to explore outside. We would love to meet you and your 'best friend' and learn his disposition, preferences and habits so that we can create a comfortable environment for him. We do potty breaks by walking your dog. Therefore our care is best suited for dogs who are used to walking as opposed to free access to the back yard. if your dog uses a crate, we have one available. Please bring some favorite toys or blanket/dog bed to help your dog feel more at home. We also do dog walking (one dog at a time) and drop-in visits for cats or other pets.

Fern and Michael watched our dog Capri for two nights while we were out of town. They treated her like their own and texted with pictures and updates every day. Capri had a wonderful time and can’t wait to go back again!

Fern and Michael are so nice and took great care of our boy, Otis. They are very hands-on and responsible dog sitters. Thank you, Fern and Michael!!

They took the best care of my old dog and on very short notice! My dog is very particular and special needs. Fern and Michael were able to accommodate! Sent updates and photos. Kodi seemed comfortable with them! Will absolutely use them again.

Safety, trust & environment

We are very safety conscious and will always be with your dog. When going on walks, we avoid contact with other dogs since one never knows how the other dogs will behave. When we take your dog to our fenced backyard to potty between walks we always take them on their leash just to make sure they don't run into any problems.
