We are all about the customer experience when it comes to providing care for your dog. We are a loving, gentle, dog oriented family of 5 with one small dog of our own named Simon. We have three children ages 10-15 and each of us will love the heck out of your dog! What makes us unique is that we offer a boutique experience for the customer, your pup and you! This means we are accountable, flexible, responsive and give exceptional personal attention. We even help you unload your car! We treat each dog that we care for as if he is our own. We talk to him, walk him, play with him, cuddle him, pet him and miss him when he leaves! We are each experienced in caring for dogs. We enjoy playing inside and outside and love taking family walks with our dog and yours will be part of our family, too! If you want your dog to be spoiled and experience a stay beyond average, we're your family! Do you simply want your dog "watched" while you're away, or would you prefer that he be spoiled? We know what we'd choose! About this sitter: I am a married mom of three, ages 8-13, and we are all dog lovers! I'm a sucker for puppies and never mind waking up for puppy training. My kids are kind and gentle and they love taking our own dog, Simon, for walks, as well as playing fetch with him and petting him. We would love to host your dog/puppy for any number of nights. We live in a beautiful, safe community with a lot of parks, one being in our own backyard! Let us love your baby like one of our own. Why I love dog sitting I have always had a dog, and so has my husband. Growing up, my family had all kinds of dogs, from Cockapoos, to Bichons, to Labs and Goldens. I can't imagine life without one! When non-dog people talk about how they think it's ridiculous that people with dogs treat them like their own kids, I think they're the crazy ones for not getting it! Our dog, Simon, loves having friends stay with us. It's a fun time for him to play, too! About my yard We have an unfenced backyard that backs up to a neighborhood park. We are in a large neighborhood with lots of space for walks. I am open to either walking your dog each time or putting him on a chain/leash when he has to be outside. Whichever you prefer. My experience administering medication Yes. I have administered medication to my own dogs in the past and also children. I am very comfortable with it.
