Loved & Treated like our own!!

Pet care experience

We have owned and taken care of dogs for over 25 years and recently had to say goodbye to our yellow lab Jake. We are now looking forward to taking care of your dog and will provide them the same love, care & attention we provided to Jake. We know how important it is to have worry free dog care when you are away from home. We will provide that peace of mind to you.

Thanks again for taking Remi into your home and treating him so well . Also, the updates with photos were nice to get when we missed him!

John and Gretchen made me feel more at ease just moving to the area and leaving my dog alone in our new place for the first time. Always got wonderful updates and pictures! Can't wait to have you again!

I couldn’t be happier. John and Gretchen did such a great job boarding my dog Finley. Very obvious that John and Gretchen really love dogs. I could tell by the pictures they sent me that Finley was having a fun vacation. I would highly recommend John and Gretchen.

John and Gretchen took such good care of our Griffey while we were away for 10 days. They sent lots of pictures and updates - he was so loved and well taken care of. He didn’t want to leave their house! We will definitely be using them again in the future.
