Pet care experience

Richmond and Moore counties

I have 2 yellow labs, Lizzie and Raine that are gentle and use to be around othe animals. I’m flexible with your schedule. I’ll play with your pets and give consistent over sight. If the pet(s) stay at my house, we’ll have a fenced yard, walks on trails, and lots of play. If I stay at your house, I would like to have permission to let the pet ride in my car in case I have to run an errand - if I leave your pet at your home, I’ll keep any errand brief. I value good pet health and will follow all instructions, call and/ or do vet visits, and handle any emergency ( if needed ). Any and all dog breeds liked and accepted. A meet and greet is necessary for first time pups, please give at least a 48 hour notice to arrange the meet n greet. I am usually home all day and night unless I run a quick errand. If I do have an errand, the pups are safe in the house and or the fenced yard or can ride with me - especially in cool weather and I don’t have a leave the AC running I have a fenced yard off the house plus I have a fenced kennel area. I have a pic of kennel on my profile. From the heart care.

After a 8hr daycare visit with Jim for our two GSDs, we booked an overnight with Jim to see if they would be comfortable for a week long Easter week visit. To our dismay, one of our dogs was trapped under the deck when we got there and was barking at the top of her lungs. Jim shared he thinks she had been there for at least 30mins and thought she was just hiding from the other dogs who were bothering her (4 dogs of his own, and 1 dog he was sitting for so a total of 7 dogs at one time in his home). We had to dig out own own dog because it didn’t seem to be an issue for Jim. After this experience, we will never be booking with Jim again as it is clear he has too many dogs of his own with poor habits (jumping on you, biting other dogs necks etc) and not enough time to properly care for dogs who stay with him. FYI - I would not have left this one star review (would have given 0 stars actually if able) but Jim has been berating us via text today for not booking with him for Easter (saying he gave up 3 other clients) wanted to share our very negative experience.

Doggy Day Care • Mar 07, 2022

We dropped our GSDs Zoe and Piper off with Jim for the day and they came back happy and exhausted! They had an opportunity to make new friends and socialize with Jim’s Labs, get some outdoor play and exploration time and came back safe and sound. Thank you, Jim. Looking forward to our next booking!
