The Hardy Heart Hideaway!

Pet care experience

Welcome to the Hardy Heart Hideaway! We cannot wait to meet and love on your furbabies! We currently have 3 dogs of our own who want to run, play, chase, and snuggle with yours! (If your dog is more of a people person, that's totally cool, too. We respect boundaries here.) As a former animal keeper of lions, tigers and other big cats, and previous educator at SeaWorld Orlando, I am passionate about all animals and their well-being; both mentally and physically. Jen has rescued and raised NUMEROUS dogs from puppy to senior, so her love of animals was the perfect match for me. Moving to a new area, we soon realized the struggle of being away from family and friends and had to rely on trustworthy Rover hosts. We'd like to pay it forward! Our fenced in back yard and dog-friendly furniture is just waiting for your baby! Come see us! Currently, I work from home and have all the time in the world to give your pet whatever type of attention they need! Jen has a flexible work schedule too, so between the two of us, your pup will never be alone. :) We have a large fenced in back yard with plenty of space to run and/or sniff around. We also have spare rooms and extra crates and beds if someone wants some alone time. Our furniture is all dog friendly, including our bed, so we can't wait to snuggle! Daily walkies are usually in the early mornings or late evenings, weather depending and our neighborhood is super animal friendly! PS We are always updating the house; the joys of being a homeowner. So hopefully our home gets better with time for your dog's care.

The best sitters we have ever used. Our babies were in heaven and had the time of their lives. Please don't change a thing! Krissi & Jen. Thank you very much. We will be back!

Amazing dog-daycare! The facility was great, my dog had the best time, and they both went above and beyond to make me and the dog as happy as possible. Gave my dog all the toys and attention he could want and sent tons of updates throughout the day. I cannot recommend them highly enough.

I have nothing but rave reviews for Krissi and Jen! This was the first time leaving my 5 month old puppy, Frankie, for a few days. They provided tons of video and photo updates, as well as answered any questions I had. I could tell Frankie was having an amazing time. I would highly recommend them…I’ll definitely be booking with them again soon!

Krissi and Jen are the best! I feel so comfortable leaving my dog with them and I know my pup enjoys the time there too! I’ve booked with them several times now and they are always my preferred choice!

Information Krissi & Jen H. would like to know about your pet

I would love to know what medications they need, feeding schedule, potty routine, walk routine, behavioral issues such as food or toy dominance, any restrictions with mobility, crate training, etc. We just want to know how to best love your dog.

A typical day

If your dog likes to stay home, we have a gorgeous fenced in back yard to explore! There are three gardens that attract butterflies and lots of birds so there's always wildlife to watch and chase. If your dog loves the park, Wescott Park is right down the road and we have always had great experiences there with our dogs! Daily walkies are typically early AM or later PM due to the heat, but we are very flexible for whatever your dog needs. I love playing with enrichment toys so expect constant stimulation for your baby. :)
