Housedoggies Pet Sitting Service

Pet care experience

Call TODAY! DON'T PUT YOUR BEST FRIEND IN A BOX! We provide loving, fun & caring pet boarding and sitting services all in a lovely private home. Lots of room in our 1/2 acre yard, 6 bedrooms, patio and garden room, we even have a downstairs apartment just for puppy play on a wet day. Our boarders are never lonely and our name means that in this house the animals come first. Warm fireside, cozy sofas, big back yard with dog run and trips to the dog park are all part of the deal. I am a seasoned adult with over 30 years of ownership experience with all sizes and breeds of dogs. As a family, we have rescued and fostered many dogs over the years and are familiar with all breeds. Your dog will love staying with us and we will love your dog. WHY I LOVE DOG BOARDING My parents raised Collie's and my first dog was Lady, I was 18 months old! So I have always had dogs, a house just isn't a home without a pup! I have owned, fostered and rescued dogs all my life. I have experience with all breeds, from Great Danes to Yorkies, I have done it! I love dogs, pamper them but give them the boundaries that make them feel secure. GIVE US A CALL TODAY WITH YOUR QUESTIONS & FOLLOW US @HouseDoggies MEET MY PETS Yorkie (Coco) 4 pounds and a spoiled rotten mess, but she is good with other dogs and cats. Mixed (Molly) a perfectly trained loving dog. She gets along well with others and loves to run and play when she isn't napping. ABOUT MY YARD We own a 1/2 acre lot with a fence all around and plenty of room to run and play. We live close to the Mason Mill Dog Park and go there if your dog is trained in park etiquette . MEDICATION AND SPECIAL ATTENTION I have given oral medications and shots and I am comfortable with both.

Linda was amazing! Our dog is a little shy and when we picked her up she looked like she had the best time. Linda always sent pictures keeping us up to date with how our doggy was doing. Highly recommend!

Scout had a great time! Lots of outdoor time that he doesn’t normally get. Lot’s of pics and updates. We finally found our new Rover.

Linda Smith provided excellent service. After our Meet & Greet, my wife & I felt confident that our Tucker would be well cared for while we were away from home. We couldn't ask for any better pet care. Linda is truly a professional and excellent at what she does. We'll call on her again.

I would love to give Linda 10 stars, but alas, there are only 5. I live out of town and visit my son in here in Atlanta frequently. He has 3 cats that don’t get along with my dog, so I needed to board him. What a pleasant environment for my little love! There is a fenced in yard, cushions abound to lounge on inside and out, separate feeding accommodations, separate kennels if required, and lots of personal attention for each little furry friend. An oasis really. Exceptional! I was was so comforted by the abundant pictures and prompt communication she sends. She definitely has my business! ❤️

Information Linda S. would like to know about your pet

All breeds are welcomed. I ask that the dog comes with his/her own bed (or something that smells like home) accustomed food (their tummies can get upset in a new place at first) and their vet information and any medications that they may be taking. It's helpful to know if the pet has any fears (like thunder or cats) and any particular favorites.

A typical day

Here's where we'll take our walks We have a large fenced in play area in our backyard where our guests run, play ball and socialize. We visit the local dog park at Moores Mill Road and walks through our neighborhood. Your dog's sleeping arrangement Wherever they want to. With 4 bedrooms upstairs, a large empty apartment downstairs and the master on the main, we never run out of room for doggie guests. It's really like a B&B for Pups. Time I'll spend with your dog When I have guests, I never leave them alone. If I must run to the store (which I try to plan ahead and don't) then my son (19 years old and himself a pet sitter) would be with them. If the dog likes the car, I take them along.
