Great pet owners, great location!

Pet care experience

The idea of having company to our sweet baby dog couldn't be more successful. Actually, every day my wife and I just feel perfect about it! Buddy is our dog, a 3 year old Rottweiler that just loves to play and be with people and other dogs. He is the real host of our home, always receiving the guests with love and joy. For him it’s very easy and kind of usual: lots of dog friends have shared good moments of playing and fun with him since we started to receive visitors in order to end his loneliness during the day when we are at work. As a result we have our Buddy so happy and relaxed and also we know we are helping people with no space or stressed and alone dogs during the day. We are not a "boarding mill". We are limited to two dog families at at time to make sure all dogs, and us are comfortable. If a dog has stayed with us before and we feel comfortable that the "overbooking" is not going to be a problem we might accept more than 2 dog families at a time. This rarely happens other than holidays. Buddy is a very sweet, sociable and just love being with others dogs. He won't pick up a fight with aggressive dogs although he likes to horse-play if he can get away with it. If the other dog pushes back he is good about giving space too. All types and sizes of dogs are welcome home, we only take a extra care with the really small ones after all Buddy is just shy of 100# Talking about the house, we are very well located in the way to the Airport in our ¼ acre lot with so much freedom, space and green everywhere. The place is also very safe with 6' fences and fully accessible for all dogs. We will be very pleased to welcome your best friend in our home and Buddy surely will like it a lot! We are away for work from 9-5 but the dogs will be free on a big dog proofed living room while we are away. Small dogs will be in a different living room to avoid accidents. If you kennel your dog we can do the same to keep his/her routine. Please bring the crate!

I am a repeat client and Gus and his wife always provide our pup, Linux, a great stay! Linux absolutely loves them and always looks forward to staying with them and their pups! Grateful for their hospitality and flexibility!

Gus was great! Great communication, always on time, flexible, and thorough. Our boys (dog & cat) warmed up to him quickly & were in great hands while we were away! Thank you so much Gus (& Buddy!).

Information Gus A. would like to know about your pet

We have absolutely no restrictions. As our own dog is a 100+ pound, we wont keep micro dogs in the same place as buddy unsupervised and not at all with other guest dogs.We would like to meet and greet beforehand though just to make sure there is no aggressiveness between the dogs. If it is not possible to meet and greet it will be OK though. We will keep the dogs apart if they end up not being good friends.

A typical day

We walk Buddy a few times a week, but if your dog is higher energy we can do more often to make he/she feel home! We do both dog parks and neighborhood walks.
