What’s better than pups?

Pet care experience

My wife, Lauren, and I have been lucky enough to save our own 2 rescue beagles. We couldn’t be happier to have her in our lives. Who rescued who right? We tend to do this adventure together as she is able to work from home 3 days a week! I work full time during the week as a physical therapist, but we spend majority of our nights at home and are home bodies on the weekends! Gracie and Nora do a great job welcoming new pups into their home and showing them the ropes. I have every type of toy, so never be worried that your pup will be bored and you don’t have to bring your own unless they have a favorite! I enjoy fetch just as much as the dogs. Not only do I love to play, but I’ll also go for walks with your dog or take a trip to the dog park to help use up that energy. When the dog starts to fall asleep, I’m all for cuddles and naps until you arrive back from your trip. Having my own dog, I understand the needs and the struggles of needing a reliable and passionate sitter or dog walker. Whenever I am busy with work, my wife steps in and helps create a great and loving environment during their stay! OVERNIGHT GUESTS: - Please let me know drop-off and pick-up times in advance! - Drop off and pick up are preferred to occur between the hours of 7:00 am - 9:00 pm. - Pick up of your pup is offered, but will be adjusted based on the roundtrip distance from my home. Thank you for being understanding & I hope to meet your dog soon!

Jessica did a great job. She was on time and did a great job with our fur babies. We will definitely use her again.

Good contact information from Jessica while out of town. All of our pets seemed happy. Jessica sent photos twice a day and updated us regularly. I’d recommend her to anyone!

Jessica is awesome. I was worried for my girls as one of them is very nervy. They were taken great care of! I highly recommend booking with Jessica.

Safety, trust & environment

I do have a yard that is not fenced in. I have leads out back that I use to allow them to be outside throughout the day. If that is not preferred, I am more than willing to walk them on a leash in the yard to use the bathroom. My townhouse community also has a fenced in dog park that can be used for potty breaks or exercise!

Information Jessica D. would like to know about your pet

I’m open to all breeds & sizes, but they must get along with my pup, Gracie! With that being said unless we have met prior, a meet and greet is required for an overnight stay. There are just a few things I’d like to know/requirements about your pup before they come for the stay: • Male dogs must be neutered if of the age to do so • Are they potty trained? (if the dog is young or struggles with potty training I have male wraps or diapers that will be used with them for their stay) • Are they crated throughout the day? (crate must be provided) • Do they have any special medications? • How much & how often do they eat? • What is their personality like/activity level? - Do they have any triggers, such as people wearing hats, squirrels, etc? Most importantly— what are their favorite types of toys & treats??

A typical day

Keeping the dogs active & stimulate is very important. I have so many different types of toys for every different type of dog. When that isn’t enough, we can take a walk around the neighborhood or a trip to the dog park to smell all the new smells in the area!

I’m currently starting my first full time position as a physical therapist, so I will be working full time, but my wife Lauren works from home some days (3) during the week and is able to adjust to the dogs schedule to help out while I am gone.
