Family of dog lovers, here to help!

After years of fostering for our local shelter and greyhound rescue, we are looking for more new & creative ways to love on dogs without adopting more! Since 2020 we have fostered over 20 adoptable dogs and not only helped instill good behavior and habits but also actively worked to find them wonderful forever homes. Our 2 yellow pups get daily walks and are always happy to welcome visitors to hang out with during the hours that they can't be out on the leash. Mom (Jill) works from home and actually has to get some work done once in awhile, which is where Daughter (Julia) comes in handy! Julia is a passionate dog-loving teenager whose idea it was to earn some extra bucks during summer vacation, doing what she loves: entertaining and doting on all varieties of pups. We would love to earn your trust and become your dog's next favorite humans!

Jill and Julia’s house is so welcoming and comfortable. Their two dogs are so wonderful with other dogs. They make my dog feel comfortable instantly. I am always so confident sending my dog to vacation at their house while we’re away.

Schedule

We are really flexible! Jill is a full-time remote worker and is home all day during the week. Julia gets home from school around 4 and happily takes the evening shift (after homework, of course)! And we have backup too - Mark is a dog-loving dad who also works from home and is always willing to help out.

Safety, trust & environment

We have a fenced-in yard and a 4 bedroom, 2 story house with basement that is fully open for pet occupation! We have one dog who loves active play with visitors, and one dog who just likes to lay low and snooze, so we can vibe with whatever your pup prefers. One of the things we excel at is helping dogs learn good behavior, so if there's a habit, trick or obedience initiative that you want us to work on while we're in charge, we will roll up our sleeves and get busy! Walks? We love 'em, and our furbabies have great leash-walking manners and promise to be a good influence. They get 2 miles of steps every day. If that's too much for your pup, we can pare it down to whatever you need. We have lots of experience with senior dogs, sighthound breeds, potty training, hospice care, administering meds and other special needs.

Pets

A typical day

We have a sweet location here in Westwood, full of shady trees and safe sidewalks, so we have plenty of perfect walking options without even leaving our neighborhood. We have one toy-player in the house (Kahlo, our 5 y.o. lab mix) who is more than happy to share the love with other willing participants. Alternatively, our 7 y.o. Saluki mix, Jed, mainly sticks to himself, knows how to snooze all day and is quite happy to chill until walk time, so we're used to that kind of "activity", too!

We run a pretty tight ship with our dogs (rule-wise), but that doesn't mean we won't accommodate whatever your wishes are for making sure your pup is happy and feels safe & secure. Just let us know what they need and we'll flex accordingly.
