Pet care experience

Loving house, playful dogs 🌞

I’ve had dogs since I was very young and they have always been very special to me. We have a large house with a fenced backyard and two black labs with different temperaments. Whiskey is 7 and more on the submissive side, whereas Ginny is 3 and very rambunctious. Her excitement is a bit much when people/animals walk through the front door, but give her five minutes and she’s a good girl :) Both get along well with other dogs, love to play, and are prolific nappers. We also have a 9 year old son who has grown up around animals his whole life. We would love for your fur baby to join us!

Roma had the best time with Margaret and her family! We got regular updates with pictures and it felt like they truly made her part of their wolf pack. Would definitely reach out again the next time we are traveling because we know Roma will be in great hands.

Our dog got anxious staying at doggie daycare centers but does great with Margaret and her family. We are so happy to have found her.

Margaret was amazing. She sent pictures and kept in contact with us each morning and night. She sent pictures and made sure there was always open communication! Larry felt right at home with the other two dogs! I will be definitely using them again!!

Schedule

I am available for drop offs between 6 A.M. and pickups as late as 8:30 P.M. I do have to leave the house to drop off and pick my son up from school, but it’s not far. I will occasionally need to go to the store or run an errand, but won’t be gone from the house for more than 1.5 hours.

Safety, trust & environment

I have a fenced yard and 2 labs to keep your dog company, plus two large crates if you prefer. We also have lots of bones and dog toys. We keep the house cleanish but do allow animals on the furniture if you are ok with that. Our dogs usually sleep in our room at night, but can be flexible if we make them.

Pets

A typical day

I love to throw the ball for my dogs, or just let them run together outside and get their zoomies out. There is a nearby park where they often go for walks. They love all the area dog parks, too. We also have a number of large dog beds around the house for them to sleep on.

Please let me know beforehand if your pets don’t do well with children or other dogs - we probably wouldn’t be the right fit then :) I am able to take special needs dogs as long as everything is clearly communicated. Please indicate the following when booking: - food amounts and times - sleeping preferences - medications; when and how much
