Pet care experience
With years of experience in caring for dogs of all breeds, our specialization lies in our deep understanding of German Shepherds. While we excel in providing tailored care for this specific breed, our expertise and love extends to all dogs, ensuring each furry friend receives personalized attention and exceptional care. From daily routines to unique needs, trust us to provide a safe, comfortable, and nurturing environment for your fur babies, regardless of breed. Full credit of “Shepherd Sanctuary” goes to our newest addition to our family, our rescue Mosley.
Reviews
If you are looking for a caring, compassionate and responsible dog owner to take care of your dog then Kendra is the person for you. She has years of experience caring for German shepherds and she views hers like her own kids. I don’t know a better dog mom than her. She will not only provide the best care to your beloved pet but treat them as her own.
Kendra and Zac were excellent pet sitters for Wes. He adores both of them. Wes suffered from anxiety around other dogs - Kendra and Zac were able to manage that perfectly so that he felt safe, confident and happy. I highly recommend Kendra and Zac. Your pups will adore them too!
Kendra and Zac are exceptional dog parents! Their love and dedication to their furry companions are evident in every interaction. They prioritize their dog's well-being, providing a loving home environment, regular exercise, and nutritious meals. It's clear that their dogs are not just a pet but a cherished member of their family. Any dog would be lucky to be in Kendra and Zac’s care.
I've known Zac and Kendra for years, and I can confidently say they are incredible dog owners. Their dedication, responsibility, and care towards their German Shepherds are truly admirable. With over a decade of experience, they've mastered the art of raising and nurturing these beautiful animals. I've witnessed firsthand the love and attention they pour into their furry companions, ensuring they lead happy and healthy lives. If you're looking for trustworthy and experienced dog owners, Zac and Kendra are the ones to turn to.
