Room to romp and stuff to sniff!

Pet care experience

Hi! I'm Ian. I've had dogs for as long as I can remember. My first babysitter growing up on the farm was a German Sheppard named Mouse. I want you to know that your pet is having a good time with us! Expect daily picture and video updates of your pet's adventures on our four acre homestead. Daily activities include: lounging in the sun (or shade!), relaxing in front of the wood stove, splashing in the creek that borders our property, and exploring the many smells that living in the country has to offer, truck rides, and making sure the anything the kid drops on the floor is promptly cleaned up. Your dog will feel right at home, and you can relax knowing that your best friend is getting the attention and butt scratches they deserve.

Ian and his family watched my golden retriever last minute for a week while I was out of town. They sent daily pictures, and were quick to respond to all my questions. Oakley got along great with their family dog and kids!

Our experience was wonderful, Indiana was treated like family and is already looking forward to going back to spend more time with his new friends. The daily pictures were overflowing with so much love and happiness I knew he wouldn’t be taken better care of anywhere else. Cannot recommend highly enough.

Our experience with Ian and his family was fantastic! We will definitely be using them again the next time we need a sitter for our dog. They were very professional, kind, and accommodating. Our dog had a great time and was very well cared for. They sent us pictures every day we were gone. I'm very grateful and happy after our experience with them. Thank you!!

Information Ian H. would like to know about your pet

I need to know about any quirks your pet may have. If your dog comes to stay with us they must get along with other dogs and small children. I'd also like to know if your dog resource guards and what their favorite toys, treats, and activities are.

A typical day

A typical day starts with a walk down to the creek to check for new smells, and deposit some of our own, followed by breakfast. Dinner is served in the evening and followed with another jaunt around the property, then a relaxing with head scratches on the couch or (weather permitting) porch swing, hammock, or next to the fire.
