Information Jess D. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your dog has any special needs, behaviors or quirks. I want to make their stay as comfortable as possible. The more I know the better prepared I can be and the smoother the stay goes.

A typical day

I have a large variety of toys for your pup to choose from squeaky, chewy, crinkle, you name it I am sure they will find one they like. We can also plat fetch and investigate all the smells around our 10 acres. If they are up for it and the weather allows I can also take them to our local State park for hiking or trail walking.

Pet care experience

We have had pets in our homes for as long as I can remember. I have taken care of all sizes from Bernese Mountain Dogs to Chihuahuas. I currently work from home full time. I am able to attend to your pets needs throughout the day. I enjoy walking so if you pet is up to it they will get plenty of exercise. I have several acres of land for us to explore when your pet visits. My dogs are gracious hosts and will make certain there is plenty of time for fun and games. I currently work from home and have the flexibility to give your pup attention when they want/need it. We are able to have frequent potty breaks, play fetch and go for walks as needed. I have 2 friendly pups and 2 cats that will welcome your fur baby and keep them company throughout their stay. Pets are able to wander inside my house freely. They might enjoy my comfy couch to sleep on, enjoy the view from our window seat, sunny spot on the floor. The opportunities are endless.

Our golden retriever mix loves Jess. I believe Jess is Gabby’s best friend and there is not enough space here to thank Jess with her loving care during long and short term stays over a number of years. What a great home away from home. Gabby says the same thing too. Woof!❤️ 🐾

Jess and her husband took great care for a first-time visitor Lucy. She has a few quirks, but they handled them with care and understanding.

Great setting on a farm in rural Lake City. Lovely place for Luna to spend a few days running around and exploring :) Communication was frequent and picture updates were fun and appreciated.
