Pet care experience

Current owner of three lovely dogs looking to care for other small dogs (30lb Max - some rare exceptions, feel free to ask) at my home. I’ve been a dog owner for the last 20 plus years. I have also cared those belonging to family and friends on many occasions. I have a large gated backyard that your dog will enjoy. I spend lots of time outside, so all dogs will get plenty outdoor time. My days start early, so drop off and pickup times are pretty flexible. My main option on here is dog boarding but I also do drop ins and house sitting! Any specific requests for them? Let me know! Any and all instructions you leave for me will be followed with the utmost care to keep your little buddy happy! If you have any questions don’t be afraid to shoot me a message and ask away. ❤️ Being that my dogs are small I will only be caring for other small dogs. I look forward to welcoming and caring for your sweet one too.

John and Jess were fantastic with our baby dog. We are so happy to find them and in fact, we already booked them for our next trip. They are simply amazing!

Great stay! We loved everything about our dog’s stay with John and his wife. Great communicators, easy to work with and extremely detailed when it comes to caring for your dog. Our dog got along great with their dogs and the yard provided the opportunity for our energetic dog to run and play! Great dog sitters!

John and Jess were absolutely amazing with our Shih Tzus, Oliver and Khloe! This was the first time we’d left them since my husband passed away, so it was an emotional experience for my family. They were incredibly compassionate, kept us updated with photos and messages every day, and gave us complete peace of mind knowing our babies were happy, safe, and loved. They treated Oliver and Khloe like family, and their communication was outstanding from start to finish. We couldn’t have asked for better sitters. I will definitely be booking with them again very soon. Highly recommend them to anyone looking for kind, trustworthy people to care for their pets.
