Grandparents & Lifetime Dog owners!

We are a retired, married couple. Fred is a retired doctor. Berni is a retired art teacher who now works part time in an upscale decorator shop. We have owned one or two dogs at a time for 50 years from puppies to geriatric. So we know how to take care of all stages of dogs from puppy pads to dispensing medication. We recently put our wonderful 15 year old mini Labradoodle to sleep and now need a furry creature for to fill out void.

As my dog gets older and slower Fred and Berniece purchased steps for my baby girl to help get on and off the bed. They go over and above every time to take exceptional care of my dog. Highly recommend.

Always so grateful for Fred and Bernice. They continue to take amazing care of Delilah. They are very communicative and always so kind. I highly recommend anyone who is worried about leaving their pet with someone to interview Fred and Bernice. Amazing people.

Fred and Bernice are incredible care takers of my precious baby girl Delilah. I am so grateful I found them. I get text messages daily with updates and photos and feel so safe and secure leaving Delilah in their hands. Frankly they are a godsend that I found them! I could not be happier with how incredible they of people they are. If you are looking for a safe home and want people who really know how to treat and take care of your pet, they are 10000% the best! Thank You to them.

Fred and Bernice from the first time I met them were welcoming and warm. I was so very nervous about leaving my baby girl, who is 10, with somebody new. They took amazing care of Delilah. The texts and photos updates made my day every day apart from my baby. I am beyond grateful to have found them. Extreme compassion and kindness from them both. Highly recommend.

Take them for walks, play tug of war, fetch and cuddle if they like that. We are near a dog park and can take them there if you are so inclined. (Although we think it's not great to expose them to germs).
