Fenced-in yard, retriever playmate!
Pet care experience
Dogs are the best people. I know this from having had dogs for 30+ years. I grew up on a farm, so all animals are friends to me, but living in Shaker limits me to dogs and cats. As a result, my wife and I own the world's friendliest golden retriever mix and a chubby cat who just likes to snuggle. In addition to our own animals, we regularly foster kittens and dogs from the Animal Protective League (but will not double-book this with Rover guests). We can't help it. We just need to be surrounded by animals. I've personally cared for dogs, cats, parakeets, hamsters, guinea pigs, kittens, fish, and miniature donkeys, so I'm pretty comfortable around any type of animal. We're already known as the animal caregivers for family members who need it, so it only makes sense to offer ourselves elsewhere.
Reviews
Kevin and family offered a wonderful home for our Gracie to spend time. She loved being with them I think she was a little depressed to come with us !?? Highly recommend the experience they offered.
Kevin was fantastic to have! Very kind and respectful, always on time, and messaged me with an update (and picture of my pup) after each walk. We will definitely use Kevin again!
Kevin and his wife are wonderful people who clearly love animals and seemed genuinely excited to watch our dog. I would highly recommend them and will be reaching out to them again when needed.
I think Atlas was bummed to leave, which is uncommon for him. He also seemed tired out at home. We could tell he had a really good time.

Information Kevin N. would like to know about your pet
How good is s/he with other dogs? Food aggression? Does the dog bark a lot? Does the dog scratch at doors? Does the dog prefer a crate or sleeping out in the open? Does it tolerate cats? Is it housebroken? Does it get on furniture?
A typical day
A standard day in our house includes towel-tugs (ropes too, but our goofball prefers towels), walks around the neighborhood, and throwing tennis balls around the backyard. We could jog if the weather is nice, or we could head out to one of several parks in the not-too-far neighborhoods. Our dog is pretty lazy, so sometimes are walks aren't that long, but it's only because he's stubborn about where to go - I'd be glad to take longer walks than he does.
