The Dog House-Silver Spring

Pet care experience

I have been caring for dogs, many of my own for over 30 years. Since I started working from home again in my Accounting Practice about 2 years ago, I decided to start caring for dogs again since I will be home with them throughout the day and it has been such a pleasure.

Lois was great with our dog! She kept us updated, and even sent us many pictures of our dog playing happily. He returned home after 3 days with Lois very calm and happy. No question he had a great time there. I strongly recommend her and will certainly use her services again.

Lois, her son, and Presley were awesome! We got tons of pics and updates, and she clearly gave our pups lots of time and attention. Our pups looked like they had a great time and came back nice and tired - always the sign of a great stay!

Lois has been watching my dog for years. I have to travel often for work and am grateful to have someone I can always trust to care for him while I'm away. Whenever I pick him up he acts like he doesn't want to leave and when we get back he's exhausted from all the exercise he gets there. I can't recommend her enough.

Safety, trust & environment

I enjoy taking many breaks from my desk throughout the day to walk dogs, and play fetch out back. I am able to tell rather quickly if a dog will fit in with other dogs that may be in the pack during the same dates and the dogs love running out back with each other and I enjoy watching them play together. I enjoy giving belly rubs and hugs and really enjoy when a dog will share my chair with me while relaxing, ( at least the ones that will fit, I've had some really big dogs jump on my lap and think they fit, that doesn't work out to well.)

My home is a perfect place for dogs because I have a half acre fenced yard in a quiet neighborhood, and with the park right across the street I don't have to go near any major roads when we go for walks.
