Pet care experience

Worry Free Care while you are away.

My wife and I have a 4 year old Golden Doodle. His name is Brady. He is very sociable and gets along with other dogs. I grew up with a dog as a kid and have had dogs most of my life. We have watched pets for family and now look forward to watching your family member. We are retired and available for boarding 24/7 and do Doggy Day Care at our home. We have a fenced backyard. We are open to accommodating your dog to feel safe and happy in our home. We are looking forward to meeting you and your furbaby.

We left for a two week vacation. As relaxing as that can be there is always the stress of leaving your dog family behind. They were well taken care of we received photos and updates upon request. Thank you Gary and family for taking good care of Buddy while we were gone. It made a vacation much more relaxing to have them in good care.

Gary is very reliable and communicates back quickly. I appreciate his calm demeanor which reflex in his calm dog as well. He has watched my dog twice and I would use him again without hesitation.
