Pet care experience

My husband and I are lifelong dog people. From shih tzus to mastiffs, we've cared for many fur babies of our own as well as those of friends and family. We have two goldendoodles (Daisy and Hazel) that our family would not be complete without and provide us daily joy. My husband and I both work from home and feel so lucky to be with our dogs every day. We have a big fenced in backyard that the dogs roam around and play in- always supervised. Nick and I are active folks and take our dogs for daily walks around the block, to the park, or to the beach near our house. We can offer a large crate, gated quiet areas, and a fresh water bowl.

Granger had her usual good time with Nick and Katie. It's good to have a dependable sitter.

Blue loves staying with Katie, Nick and the doodles! He was so excited to return— the moment we pulled in the drive he was whining and pacing in the backseat in anticipation of seeing all his friends again. Love the daily updates and Blue always comes home from his little vacation as a tired and happy boy!

Granger is always upbeat and energetic after staying with Katie & Nick. She seems like she had a very good time.

Katie and Nick are seriously awesome. They took care of Cooper like he was part of their own family. They sent me daily photos and videos updates. Copper had the time of his life with them. He was all smiles and tail wags in every picture and video. They were super accommodating to his routine and he didn’t even realize he was away from home. What I really appreciate is their communication. Any questions I had, they were quick to answer. They even let me know about the little things Cooper was up to. When I picked Cooper up it was obvious he had an amazing time. I will most definitely be using Katie and Nick for all my sitting needs in the future!

A typical day

Outside you’ll find lots of fetch in the backyard, walks to the beach nearby, walking paths along the lake- we love being outside! Inside we have lots of toys, wrestling with Hazel, and belly rubs by Katie and Nick. Daisy is older and more low-key, so quiet-time naps are plentiful as well.
