Highlights
Pet care experience
Fenced in yard home away from home!
Dogs have always been family in my home, and that’s exactly how I treat every pup who stays here. My name is Keith and I share a home with my wife, Natalie; our 4-year-old Irish Wolfhound, Bernie, and our 6-year-old daughter, who has grown up loving and being around dogs. The home has a large, fully fenced-in yard with plenty of room for dogs to run, play, explore, or just lounge outside. Inside, the home is completely dog-friendly—couches, furniture, snuggles and all! I want your dog to feel like they’re staying with family rather than being boarded. One of the biggest benefits of staying here is that someone is almost always home. I work from home 90% of the time and the whole family is home on the weekends, so your pup will get plenty of attention, supervision, potty breaks, playtime, and companionship throughout the day. They won’t spend their stay sitting alone for hours. Having an Irish Wolfhound has also given me plenty of experience with large and giant breeds, but I genuinely love dogs of all sizes and personalities. I understand how stressful it can be to leave your dog with someone new, so my goal is to follow their normal routine as closely as possible and make them feel safe, comfortable, loved, and included while they’re here. And of course, I am happy to send plenty of pictures and updates so you can see what your pup is up to! 🐶❤️
Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
Keith is someone I would absolutely trust with my pets. He’s dependable, responsible, and genuinely cares about animals. He’s patient, attentive, and the type of person who will make sure your pets are safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away. I know how stressful it can be to leave your pets in someone else’s hands, and Keith is someone you can feel confident and comfortable trusting. I would recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter!
Natalie and Keith have been great with my dog, and I feel completely comfortable leaving him with them. They’re both really easy to communicate with, dependable, and you can tell they genuinely enjoy having dogs around. What I like most is that it feels more like I’m leaving my dog with family or friends than at a typical boarding place. Their house is very dog-friendly, they have a big fenced-in backyard with plenty of room to run and play, and their Irish Wolfhound, Bernie, is such a sweet and laid-back dog. Someone is usually home too, which gives me peace of mind knowing my dog is getting plenty of attention and isn’t spending most of the day alone. They’re great about keeping up with his normal routine while also giving him lots of playtime, attention, and cuddles. Every time he’s been with them, he comes home happy, relaxed, and exhausted from playing. I’d definitely have Natalie and Keith watch him again and would recommend them to anyone looking for people who will treat their dog like one of their own.
I would highly recommend Keith as your pet caregiver. I have worked with Keith for the past ten years and he has always treated me with compassion, respect, and a very caring attitude. He has shown this to be true with his animals over the years by going for long walks and treating his animals just as he does humans. Give him a shout and you won’t be disappointed!
Natalie and Keith are the type of people who truly treats animals like family. They are incredibly loving, patient, responsible, and attentive, and I would trust and have trusted them completely with my pets for years. They have a wonderful home with a large fenced-in yard and a very sweet, gentle Irish Wolfhound who loves other dogs. I’ve seen firsthand how much they care about animals and how seriously they take their safety and comfort. Any dog staying with Natalie and Keith would get plenty of attention, affection, playtime, and probably some couch cuddles too! I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them to anyone looking for someone they can genuinely trust with their pet.

Schedule
Pet care fits naturally into my everyday routine. I work from home majority of the time, so someone is almost always here. This means your pup won’t be left alone for long periods and will get plenty of attention, playtime, outside time, and cuddles throughout the day. I am available for weekday and weekend boarding and love having an extra furry family member around!

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
The home has a large, fully fenced-in backyard with plenty of room for dogs to safely run, play, and explore. I also have a sweet 4-year-old Irish Wolfhound named Bernie who is very much part of our family. We have a 6-year-old daughter who has grown up around dogs and understands how to be gentle and respectful with them. The home is very dog-friendly—pups are welcome on the furniture, encouraged to get comfortable, and treated like part of the family while they’re here. I am also happy to follow your dog’s normal feeding, sleeping, medication, crate, or exercise routine so they feel as comfortable and secure as possible.
Pets
A typical day
A typical day with me includes plenty of attention, playtime, and time outside in the large fenced-in yard. My sweet Irish Wolfhound, Bernie, who loves having friends to play with, but he’s also perfectly happy relaxing around the house. I am happy to go on walks, play outside, give lots of belly rubs, or just cuddle up on the couch depending on what your dog enjoys. I really try to make my home feel like their home while they’re staying here.

- I’d love to know as much as possible about your pet so I can keep their routine familiar and make them comfortable. Please tell me about their feeding schedule, medications, allergies, favorite activities, sleeping habits, personality, and any special needs or behaviors I should know about. Since I have a friendly dog and a six-year-old daughter in our home, it’s especially important that visiting dogs are comfortable around children and other dogs. I also want to know about any anxiety, triggers, escape tendencies, resource guarding, or other quirks; even the little things! The more I know about your pet, the better I can care for them like one of my own.
