Lap dog lovers/owners for 10+ years
Pet care experience
Dog sitting with 2 adults with flexible work schedules and 2 children that love pups! Our family enjoyed 10 years with our two precious Maltese pups before having to give them to our extended family due to a moving transition. Our two kids (ages 8 & 5), love to cuddle and play with our furry friends! Nightly Dog walks around the neighborhood are our favorite. My personal experience with pets is vast. Growing up, we had a myriad of different types of pets including a lamb, fish, and chickens, but alway dogs were part of our family picture! We’re looking forward to giving our children and your pets, the same positive family experience I had growing up. Lap dogs are our heart! Would love to cuddle and care for yours!
Reviews
Katie and Todd were terrific! They were so sweet and welcomed our chihuahua into their home with open arms. They communicated with me frequently during his stay overnight. Our little guy is a total mama's boy, but they made the whole process easy for him and us. Thank you!
I thought Katie was terrific. This was our first Rover stay. She watched our Malitpoo Sunny for 3 days. Sunny gets very sad and is afraid of being in new places. Katie was very hands on, observant and kind. She offered to send pictures and updates and since I knew I would be very busy these 3 days I said no need, just one quick text saying she is okay is fine. Instead, she did send frequent updates and pictures and I was surprised how nice if felt to get those. I was very appreciative that she was really getting to know Sunny in that short amount of time. I especially liked that she was her only dog and she only takes small dogs (since Sunny can be afraid of large or aggressive dogs). Great experience for us and I would use her again without hesitation - They have cute kids too!
All I can say is WOW! Katie, Todd, and their family did a phenomenal job taking care of our puppy (Sophie) while our family went on a vacation in July of 2019. If this family is available to board your dog, I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THAT YOU BOOK ASAP! Katie and Todd were very prompt and professional in responding to our request. The two of them were willing and eager to meet with myself and Sophie to get to know us. We met at a dog friendly park before making our booking! They arrived with prepared questions, happy faces, and overall excitement to care for Sophie. Their family is very approachable, kind, and exactly what we needed for our Sophie. I was especially impressed with their children. Our Sophie is a small dog (10 lbs.) and both of their children were gentle, soft, and cautious with the dog. I had no issues or concerns leaving our small dog with the children. They were perfect for Sophie! After dropping Sophie off, Katie and Todd remained prompt and frequent with their communication letting us know how Sophie was doing throughout our vacation. When we dropped off Sophie, Katie, Todd, and their family had purchased a gift/toy for Sophie in anticipation for the boarding. These people are so AWESOME! Throughout the stay they sent multiple photos/videos each day. I could tell that our Sophie was probably having more fun with them than if she was staying with us! When the week came to an end, Katie, Todd, and their children had prepared a card to send us home with thanking us for the business with additional photos of the dog! You can tell that they truly cared about our dog and made sure she was taken care of. I will DEFINITELY be re-booking with Katie, Todd, and their family. Thank you again for your help and taking care of Sophie.
Katie's family has watched my pomeranian Maggi several times and I would highly recommend them. Maggi loves playing with her two kids in their back yard and going on walks with them. She's always well taken care of and I never have to worry about her well being while I'm on vacation. Although she doesn't have a dog of her own she's had several in the best and is a great sitter.
