Pet care experience
Hello, my name is Frank and I live close to Faith Lutheran School. My wife and I have always had dogs. When our 4 children were younger we always had 4 dogs running around the home. Now that we are retired we only have our precious min pin Arnie. Arnie is a rescue pup that wouldn't go up to anyone but he came right up to me and we took him home. Arnie now has his own chair in the living room and pillow on our bed. We can't wait for your pup to come visit and be apart of our family temporarily! I have undergone advanced screening, I have been met face to face and my home has been inspected. I am eagerly awaiting your call! The fees listed are for a 24 hr stay, and is for a small dog! Ask me for prices on larger dogs or multiple dogs. If you pick up outside the 24 hr stay there will be an additional charge. Why I love dog sitting Always had a dog, and they are simply the best expression of love... Always happy to see you, and never remembering the times you had to discipline them.. A special dog in my life was Sasquatch! He was the odd puppy out of a litter of 8 or 9. Mom was a Chocolate Lab who got out one day and met a Neapolitan (French) Mastiff. Sasquatch was never picked by anybody cause he was twice the size of the others and nobody wanted him. I called him bigpaw as a temp name expecting him to be taken, but no one picked him. He stayed with us for about 6 months before I realized he chose us, and formalized his name as Sasquatch. He never learned to walk on a lease, he simply walked on a lease and always stayed with me. He was 135 pounds of a mastiff who looked like a Chocolate Lab with the massive face and front leg of a mastiff. His voice scared everyone, and he liked it when little kids hugged him. About my yard Since we are in a trailer park I will take the dogs on walks for exercise and potty breaks. My experience administering medication Yes, I can administer oral and injection medication on a case by case basis.
Reviews
Couldn't be happier with choosing Frank to watch our dog for a long weekend and will def choose him again in the future!
Our dog Buddy had a great stay for a doggy daycare day with Frank and his wife! They are so sweet and accommodating. We will also be dropping him off there for a couple days when I go into labor. They are even open to us dropping him off in the middle of the night if that's when we have to go to the hospital. I would highly recommend them!
Staying with Frank had us a little worried as we had never left her with anyone before. We should not have worried at all, Frank, Nancy and their son Trey are wonderful "babysitters", Molly even shared their beds...thankfully, she had just had a bath!" They are really wonderful people who made us feel like we had known each other for forever. They are so kind and Molly loved her stay. There is no question about us calling them again should we need loving people like them to take care of our "baby" They are all #1 in our book! Thanks again, Frank, Nancy and Trey, we hope to see you again real soon! Connie, Mike and Molly
Frank and Nancy are a wonderful dog-loving couple. With their min-pin Arnie, they completely freed us for a stress free dog holiday. Our three 'kids' were treated like family and we would not hesitate to use their services again. Thanks Frank and Nancy! Tom & Jean Lawrence

But if you want to drop off and pick up and get a 10 or 12 hour (or more) day "free" realize that we are going to charge you for dog sitting, and if you go beyond 12 hours we are going to charge you for an additional day of sitting.
