We are retired. We love home gardening in the summer and love to go on small daily walks. In earlier years we raised seeing eye dogs for the blind. It was challenging but fulfilling. The hard part was getting attached to the dog but giving it up to go to a new home with someone who dearly needed their helping eyes. We are experienced with professional leash training as well as other aspects of professionally caring for dogs, and special needs dogs. We can administer medicine, eye drops, ear drops, dietary needs. Often the most important job is just to make sure that the “Scooby” treat is doled out at the right times. It can make the time away from their family more tolerable. We are more than glad to forward daily pictures and updates to the away family.

Safety, trust & environment

Although a picture we posted shows a swim pool we DO NOT have a swimming pool. We know your fur baby’s safety is priority. Our fenced yard is large and perfectly safe from wildlife. We keep a constant watchful eye out at all times. Small dogs are more vulnerable and like very young children should never be left without supervision. We are more than happy to incorporate your pets routine into our daily routine. Daily walks, playing outside, and comfortable rest areas. Bedtime is the crucial time for the pet to feel safe and loved. Our bed or their bed, it’s really up to them.

Information Kim & David S. would like to know about your pet

We need to know your pets activity level, preferred form of exercise, potty frequency and signals. We need to know the foods allowed and not allowed along with all dietary or medical needs that you provide. Most of all, we need to know your pets special names, and how you show them love at those special times.

A typical day

Walking at Round Lake trail is our preferred walking place. We have a very large secure fenced yard for additional daily outside exercise. and routine play your pet prefers. It’s a great place to play ball or frisbee. There’s additional acreage for more running area if you prefer that your pet stays closer to home but needs more room.

The right place

Pet care experience

We always used Rover for our little miss while we were away. She weighed 12 lbs and had health issues later in life. She recently passed due to old age and instead of owning another new pet we decided to help other people have a happy safe environment for their fur baby. You can tell when you enter a home if it’s truly the right place for your beloved pet. We want to provide that right place for you. We are mostly interested in the small vulnerable dogs that need extra attentive loving care. We are very dedicated to the pets needs and safety. So much so that a dear friend told me that when she died she wanted to come back as my dog. LOL. She saw how we raised our dog, the same as we raised our kids. Lots of love and dedication to their needs. Typically it is just my husband and I but sometimes our two grandkids come to spend the night. They are so good with animals and enjoy playing with them. It’s all about respect and that’s our priority with all animals.

We are so pleased with the attention and love that Kim and Dave have given to our dog. I am not certain that she missed us very much. She felt right at home within minutes of meeting them prior to being boarded there. It was so wonderful to feel secure leaving her with people that truly care about her comfort and happiness. They are great with sharing photos and responding to messages and sharing daily photos too. We will be using them again for future needs.

Kim and David were incredible pet sitters for our dog, Cookie! They instantly put us at ease and treated Cookie with utmost care and attention. When we returned, Cookie was happy and well-cared for, and it was evident that she had been in excellent hands. I highly recommend them to anyone seeking loving and trustworthy pet sitters!

Kim and David were wonderful with our dog, Scout. Their home was very comfortable and he clearly enjoyed his visit with them. They were very attentive to his needs and even treated his eye when it became irritated while we were away. We look forward to having them keep him again when we travel in the future.
