Home full-time, huge fenced-in yard

Pet care experience

***UPDATE!!!*** As of April 2019, we are currently on hiatus from boarding dogs in our home. We are undergoing major home repairs and will hopefully be back in business January 2020. To all of our regular pups and people, we will miss you! And hope to see you in 2020! Meanwhile, we are providing a new service - dog walking! Thanks to our time with Rover, we have plenty of experience walking dogs of all sizes and temperaments. We would love to get to know you and your pup - send us a message and let's get started! About us: Our family has been dog-sitting through Rover since November 2015...and we love it! We've had all kinds of pups, big and small, young and old, and we love them all like family. Both my husband and I have had dogs for most of our lives, and our 2 boys, ages 2.5 and 15, adore them. The 15 year-old loves having a companion on his walks and the toddler just likes to snuggle and play fetch (he thinks that's hilarious!). Aside from our experience owning our own dogs, I also worked at PetSmart for about 4 years and Blue Buffalo, a pet food company, for 2 years. So I've been around lots of animals, big and small, and know the basics of their care. Through Rover, we've had experience with senior dogs, separation anxiety, administering medication, and more, so we're ready for you! We have a huge fenced-in yard and plenty of space for your dog and his/her essentials. There is almost always someone at home, aside from the occasional errand or our teenager's baseball games. So if your dog needs to go out often, or just likes company and cuddles, there will be someone here for them! What you can expect: We want your pup to feel comfortable and happy during their stay, so we try to stick with your routine as closely as possible (eating/potty schedule, where they sleep, training commands, etc.). We don't mind pets on our furniture, so if that's where they like to snuggle and sleep, that's fine by us! Our backyard is huge and fenced-in, giving your pup lots of room to run and play. We tend to be out there a lot, especially during the warmer months, so a game or ten of fetch is not out of the question. We'll update you as much or as little as you'd like. If you want several pictures a day or even to Skype them, we can make it happen. We know how hard it can be to leave a member of your family behind! We do try to limit our pet-sitting to one family at a time, though sometimes there may be an overlap of a day or so. If that happens, we try to let you know. If they absolutely need to be the only dog, please let us know and we can figure it out. We hope you'll consider us for the care of your fur baby. If you have any questions, please shoot us a message!

Kaylee is GREAT. I'm a very nervous dog Mom. We went on vacation out of state for a week. My Casey had a "medical situation" come up-one that has never happened before. The worst feeling when you're far away from your furry one. Kaylee took her to our vet, got medication, and got the situation under control. She called me from the vet, put me on the phone with the doc, and was just incredibly kind. We were able to relax and enjoy our trip. I could tell Casey was in good hands. Casey started to do things she did at home like "guard" the bathroom door while my husband is in the shower. We have only left our dog with a sitter a couple times before, and there has always been an adjustment period when we get back-casey just isnt herself for a day or so---but that was not the case this time. It was easy to see Casey was totally at ease and comfortable. From the moment we picked her up it was business as usual. Kaylee was very kind and understanding to this panicked mom, and we will most definitely use her again!!! (If she will have us lol). She and her family are just genuinely kind and caring. I have never felt this comfy with a sitter.

Very pleased with Kaylee watching Crawford. He was a happy boy, and was very well taken care of. Highly recommended!

We booked with Kaylee for our vacation in May. We have a nervous dog with IBS and we were anxious to leave her. Our other dog just lost her best bud to cancer and was still experiencing depression from the loss. Kaylee provided a safe and comfortable home for our fur babies and updated us appropriately throughout the week. We returned home to happy, healthy dogs!! I will most definitely use her again!!

Kaylee saved our day! Gigi got to spend an action packed day with Kaylee and her family while we went on a much needed day trip. We got photo update and Gigi was loved and played with all day long. Kaylee has a cat that even tolerated Gigi! Great family, Gigi has a blast!
