Highlights
Pet care experience
Former old pup owner,loves all dogs
I’m the first friend offering to dogsit for my friends and have looked after several over the years: young, old, big, small, each with their own ridiculous personality. I took care of our own elderly pup (before his passing) so I’m experienced with sneaking meds to reluctant four legged recipients.

Ratings and reviews
Keith is fantastic! My dog had such a great time staying with him. He treated her like family, kept her busy, and made sure she felt right at home. I really appreciated the regular updates and photos—so thoughtful and reassuring. You can tell Keith genuinely loves dogs and enjoys what he does. Highly recommend him for boarding!
Keith is an excellent caretaker who knows dogs and easily handled my two dogs. He has a large fenced backyard but also walked the dogs. He stayed in communication. I would not hesitate to use him again in the future.
Rocco had a great time with Keith. Everyday he would send us pictures of the various activities. I feel confident leaving Rocco with him for long period of days.
Keith took great care of our dogs. They probably got more exercise in 2 days then they get in a week with us. They were exhausted after spending time playing and going on walks with Keith and his family! Highly recommend using Keith whenever you can!!
Keith loves our pups and will love yours too! This family is considerate, affectionate, and loving!! Keith and his family are wonderful pet sitters and I would rebook time and time again. Thank you for loving our babies like family!
Keith was wonderful with our first time Rover pups! The family was patient and kind to our babies. I got tons of updates and pictures ans videos... our pups settled in nicely and they felt comfortable and safe. Would 1000% recommend and any family would be so lucky to have their dogs tended to by Keith and his family. Rebooking again soon!!

Schedule
I work from home so I’m around all day to give pups pets, treats, and bathroom breaks in our yard and dip out for a lunch time walk either around the block or a quick drive to Mill Pond or Stone Park.

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I have a big fenced in yard for dogs that don’t like the leash or don’t need a full walk to do their business. Our house has a relatively open floor plan on the first floor where my office is so pups are able to meander and lounge easily without getting too far away. I can also work in the backyard when the weather and work allows. I can set up in the kitchen by the bay window to watch them in the yard while I’m still inside as well.
A typical day
My work days are rarely stacked with calls so I can easily let dogs out into the yard when needed or give them the pets and attention they need during the day. I try to go for a good long walk on lunch and after work. If the dog doesn’t mind cars, happy to drive to a dog park or out for a hike. On the weekends we typically try to take the dogs for drives out to state parks or new fields but are just as happy to lounge inside with lap dogs.

- I like to know the dog’s typical routine and diet and try to match it. The usual things I ask about are: Any allergies or food/treat restrictions? How they do with other dogs? How do they do with children? (We have a baby) What’s their sleeping arrangement (have a bed, in our bed, in a crate, etc)? Any do’s or don’ts with pets or handling?
