Doggy resort, huge yard to play!

Pet care experience

We know from experience how hard it is to find a "home away from home" for your pup when you are gone that’s spacious, clean, safe and loving for your pup. That’s why our specialty is vacation care. We will love your dog like our own... they will sleep where they normally sleep (on our bed, on their bed, etc), play in our huge yard and in our house, go on long walks, get tummy rubs and lots of love! We have real grass, and no foxtails which is important, and your dog won't come home with fleas. We are both retired, so you can count on at least one of us to be with your pup all day -- we take two walks per day if you dog wishes, normally a long walk to a nearby park in the mornings, and a walk around the neighborhood in the evening, and plenty of play and snuggle time at home! We will send you pictures or videos periodically so you can see how your pooch is doing! Feel free to FaceTime me too! We only take 2 dogs at a time in addition to our own, so your sweetie will have plenty of attention. Do know we only take dogs up to 35 pounds, and ones that don't need to go potty in the middle of the night (we are sound sleepers!). Also we prefer young males over 2 years, unless they are quite chill; females over 1 year are fine :) NOTE: The listed rate is for up to a 24 hour period. Earliest drop off is 7am, latest pickup is 10pm.

Gayle was very welcoming and caring for our dog, Piper. She ask questions about his daily routine and care instructions. She listened and followed up with questions. We were very pleased with her willingness to send updates and photos while we were away from our little pup. We’d be happy to use this boarding arrangement again in the future.

Gayle is awesome! She is a very caring nurturing woman with tremendous class. She takes care of my 16 y/o Yorky like he was her own. He’s on meds twice daily and I never worry about him when he’s with Gayle. Five Stars!

I can tell Jake was taken care of very well. He was relaxed and happy when we got home. I highly recommend Gayle and Steve great with dogs. So glad I discovered them will use them again on my next trip.

Safety, trust & environment

We treat our guest dogs like our own fur-baby. Our back yard is secured, and in the rare event we both have to go somewhere when we have guests, we separate the dogs in different rooms of the house (we have lots of pocket doors). We only take 2 guest dogs so we have enough hands to pet and give tummy rubs, and make them feel loved.

Information Gayle M. would like to know about your pet

Your dog will meet ours (a socialized mini Australian Shepard) and ensure they like one another. We will want to know your dog is current on shots etc, and that they are completely house trained (no marking inside). We only take dogs up to 30 POUNDS. I'm sorry however we do not take Pit Bull breeds (too risky for other dogs) or Poodle breeds.

A typical day

A typical day includes lots of play time in our 5000 square foot back yard and in our home, a morning walk to our lovely nearby park where they can socialize with other well behaved dogs in our play group, as much rest and play as they want, evening walk, and lots of love! Our dog loves playing frisbee, chase and fetch, but if your dog isn't into that, he's ok with playing with just us.
