Baxter enjoyed his time with Kerri and her family. It was his first time away from home and she kept me updated with pictures and videos. Nice big fenced in back yard for playtime and that was important as Baxter is an Aussie who just celebrated his first birthday on pick up day.

My 4 yr old Goldendoodle has done great with Kerri! He recognizes her and immediately wants to run and greet her. Absolutely recommend

Rolo had a great time with Kerri and her family! I got lots of cute pics of Rolo with Kerri's kids, and he got to hang with some dog and cat pals while there (I also have a cat at home so knew he'd be good with cats). I'd love to use Kerri again the next time we may need to go out of town.

Keri was very friendly and sully seemed to like her a lot. She was very kind to help us out last minute. Thanks 😊

I work from home, so I am home most of the day. The dogs will spend the day playing inside and outside, taking naps, sunbathing, playing with toys, and chewing on bones.

Safety, trust & environment

I have a fenced yard, two other personal dogs, usually 1 foster dog, two cats, and two kids. For everyone's safety, all dogs are usually crated when I'm not home but if they would prefer to stay out of crate, that is fine too.

A typical day

Our cherished visitors will play outside and inside with our playful dogs, throughout the day, if that's their thing. If they aren't very playful, they can explore the yard, sunbathe chew on bones, get lots of love!
