We reside near Westwood Park, and would love to take your dogs there to play, with your permission of course! We are also happy to cuddle with your dogs on the couch (or floor, if they’re not allowed on furniture) all day. We will treat any dog in our care as well as we treat our own dogs—like royalty! We also enjoy watching cats, and we can take care of cats at your home. Cat-sitting or cat drop-ins are two good options.

Libby and Dave are great! My dog had so much fun with them. Great at communicating and sent a lot of great pup-dates. Would highly recommend.

Libby and Dave are great! They went the extra mile to help me out with a lock for my spare key, short notice visits, and my random requests. I love seeing the pictures from my puppies walk while I’m at work and the message of how it went! A+!

Dog Walking • Apr 16, 2021

They are the absolute best! I had a family emergency and my original dog sitter bailed. I was very stressed and frazzle but Libby and Dave saved the day! They came over so quickly to hang out with my bud. The only thing I’d do different next time is contact them as my first choice for dog sitting!

I am so glad I found Libby and Dave to care for my animals! They’re responsible, reliable, and great communicators. I get fantastic photos of my animals while I am away, detailed notes about their time together, and feel my animals are genuinely happy when Libby and Dave are around. Highly recommend!

Schedule

I’m out dog-walking from approximately 10:15-2:00 M-F. I can crate your dog if you provide the crate, otherwise I’ll leave him/her out in the house with our small dog. I can put them in separate rooms if you prefer.

Pets

A typical day

We will go on walks around our neighborhood or yours, play fetch, tug of war, snuggle, and wrestle. We can pet and snuggle with dogs for days; they'll never want for attention when they're with us. We also love jogging/running; just let us know what type of exercise your pupper prefers.
