Loving Couple that Loves Dogs!

Pet care experience

We are a retired couple in our fifties who love dogs. We treat all of are guests like family. They go on plenty of walks and are given full run of the house. There is usually at least one person at home while your pet is here. We also offer Doggie Day-Care, Drop-in Visits and Overnight Stays with your dog. We also follow your rules so there is no confusion for your puppy. Pictures and a daily report are sent every night! We have been with Rover now for eight years and have many repeat clients. We are glad to give references. We are The Dog Sitters giving love and attention to one dog at a time.

Howie did a great job taking care of our dog last week. Professional, caring, responsive. Seems like our dog had a great time there, and I heard from Howie every day with a photo of our pup at dinner time.

As always Howie was great with our Maise. Maise loves to see Howie- obviously makes us very happy!
