Dog lovers with room for more dogs

Pet care experience

Hi, I’m Jackie and I am an absolute dog lover! Mine and my fiancé’s youngest child, our mini dachshund Ziggy, is the best. I grew up with dogs and have taken care of friends' and family members’ dogs for many years. I have experience caring for puppies, elderly dogs, and dogs with epilepsy. Ziggy loves playing with other dogs and would love to have some dog friends over for a sleepover.

Exceptional Dog Sitting Experience with Jacklyn and RickI recently had the pleasure of entrusting my dog, Carter, to Jacklyn and Rick's care while I was away on a trip. I couldn't have been happier with the level of care they provided for him.From the moment I dropped Carter off, I could tell that Jacklyn and Rick genuinely cared for him. They were attentive to his needs, ensuring he felt comfortable and settled in their home. Throughout my trip, they kept me updated with photos and messages, giving me peace of mind knowing Carter was in good hands.It was evident that they prioritized Carter's well-being and happiness during his stay. Additionally, Carter had the opportunity to make a new friend and play extensively with their own dog. This social interaction and playtime enriched Carter's experience and kept him happy and entertained. Moreover, Jacklyn and Rick's home was clean, safe, and conducive to pets. Carter had ample space to play and relax, and he seemed to enjoy his time with them. Overall, I highly recommend Jacklyn and Rick as dog sitters. Their professionalism, care, and genuine love for animals make them stand out. I will definitely be reaching out to them again for future pet sitting needs. Thank you, Jacklyn and Rick, for taking such wonderful care of Carter!

Safety, trust & environment

I have a fenced in yard and a super friendly mini dachshund. Our dog is crated during the day, while we are at work, but has access to most of the house while we are home. He sleeps in bed with us and is allowed up on the couch for cuddles. We can work with you and what your dog needs for alone time, bed time, and through out the day. Rick's three kids (ages 7, 11, and 12) are with us for half of the week, so your dog must be good with children.

Information Jacklyn & Rick L. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know what your dog needs for their stay to be comfortable, fun, and feel like home. This includes: 1. Dietary restrictions/allergies 2. Does your dog eat scheduled meals or just grazes throughout the day? 3. Are they on any medications or supplement? How are they administered? 4. What is your dogs preferred sleeping arrangement? Do they like to be in a crate, in a dog bed, or in bed with us? 5. While we’re at work, are they more comfortable in a crate, partially blocked off in part of the house, or can they roam freely through out the house? 6. Is there anything they don’t like or are afraid of? (Ex. Thunder, smoke from cooking, loud noises, being pet or touched in a certain spot, etc) What signals do they give when they are afraid or don’t like something? 7. Does your dog like long walks, short walks, going for a run, playing fetch? 8. Your dog’s vet information.

A typical day

Your dog will have a ton of fun when they stay with us. We will play fetch in the yard, go on walks or runs, and go to the park. My dog is not built for long walks or runs, but I am. I would absolutely love having a dog companion for that if your dog needs that.
