Dog loving, homeschooling family!
Pet care experience
I grew up with a dog and have always been a pet lover. Although our family currently doesn't have a dog of our own, we love being around the pets of our friends and family. We have also been a foster family for several dogs in the past three years. These dogs come with all sorts of physical and emotional issues and we have been blessed to help them find their forever homes. We are a homeschooling family who is home much of the day, usually only leaving for a few hours at a time for classes and events. Our children, ages 10, 14 and 19, will give your dog lots of loving attention and play time. But they are also aware when a dog needs their space. We use Tractive GPS Trackers to keep an extra "eye" on your pup that alerts us if they leave our back yard virtual and real fence. Tractive also gives us real time tracking and location giving you, and us, 100% peace of mind that even an escape artist won't wander too far. We have a large, fully fenced backyard to play and a great neighborhood for walks. We will consider puppies that aren't housebroken for an additional $10/day
Reviews
Our dogs had such a lovely stay with Julie. She was great with communication and always super responsive if I thought of any questions or concerns while we were away. We would love to have our dogs stay again in the future.
This was my first time using Rover and was definitely nervous about how the experience would go. But with Joel and Julie it was great!! They were great at communicating and making both Bluey and I feel comfortable. This was a great experience and would recommend them!!
This was our first experience using Rover and it was a great one! Thank you Julie, Joel and family for hosting Rocky. They were wonderful, communicating and providing wonderful care for my 12 week old puppy. Can’t recommend them enough :) Thank you again!
Julie was very responsive and accommodating. Ahe sent us status updates and pictures.

Safety, trust & environment
We have a fully fenced in back yard. We also have dog trackers that your pet will wear during their stay with us. We'll be alerted if they leave the backyard and we will get real time tracking and location. On the rare occassion that nobody is home, your dog will be crated- this ensures that they can't get into mischeif and inadvertently hurt themselves while we are away and they are unsupervised.
Home
Information Julie F. would like to know about your pet
We need to know if your dog is housebroken and is ok with children. To ensure the safety of your pet and of our home we must be able to crate your pet when we cannot supervise them (i.e. overnight or the rare time we are all away from home). Even dogs who are great at home often have accidents in a new situation. As there is a possibility that we will have a foster dog during your dog's stay, we need to know if your dog gets along well with other dogs. We would love to meet your dog before they stay, to make sure they are a good fit for our family. We are happy to provide a crate if you don't have one.
A typical day
Dogs will have daily walks around the neighborhood and plenty of playtime in the backyard. If your dog like to play with other dogs, we have plenty of neighbor dogs who are always up for a playdate.
