Hello, I’m Jeff! My wife Kara and I live on the Newport Beach Peninsula and are both long time Newport Beach local residents. I am a retired Real Estate agent and my wife works part time as a dental hygienist. We enjoy spending lots of time at home, so your fur babies will never be left alone. At least one of us is always home with them. We absolutely love all animals, especially dogs! We have the sweetest dog Monkey that is very friendly and gets along with all other dogs. Our youngest daughter is a veterinarian in Texas and is always available if we need veterinary advice. We live on Newport Island, which is a very pet friendly community. There is a great dog walking park just 4 houses down from us, and we have an enclosed patio and a small side yard. Rest assured, babies will get 3-5 long walks a day (depending on their energy level) and will be safely inside with us when not on walks. With your approval, and if your pup does well off-leash, we love to take them to the beach (3 blocks away) to chase a tennis ball around just before sunset. Obviously, they will always have access to fresh water, will be fed on the same schedule as they are at home, and given lots of treats! We look forward to showering your doggie with lots and lots of love and attention! Please inquire about discounted rates for stays longer than 2 weeks. We board up to 2 dogs at a time, and now have our own dog, so unfortunately can no longer accommodate dogs that need to be an only dog. We do not require a meet and greet. Our reviews speak for themselves! If you prefer to have a meet and greet, we are happy to schedule them mid-week in the evenings.
