Active Family That Loves Dogs!
Pet care experience
You won’t have to worry when you leave your dogs behind. They will be with a great family who cares about them and we typically take one family of dogs at a time, so they'll get our full attention. We have a fenced yard and a great neighborhood for walks. Why Rover? We are a dog loving family and our kids are trying out different business models. Our family has had dogs (now, a yellow lab named Cash and a black lab mix named Feyd) and cats (now, McKenzie) "forever," and we've done our time with guinea pigs too. The dogs are sweet, loving, love to fetch and run and are used to sharing space with other dogs. Feyd loves to PLAY with visiting dogs. Cash hangs out and watches. McKenzie holds her own or gets out of the way :) When we go on vacation and have to leave them behind, we can only hope they are in the best of hands. We always make sure that our dog sitters are experienced with handling a dog and that they care about our pets as much as we do. That way, we don't need to worry and we can have fun on our trip. We want you to feel the same!
Reviews
Mari and her family took such great care of our 11yr old lab. Loved all the photo updates, flexibility and communication during the stay - but was especially so impressed the way they made Pepper feel right at home and a part of their family. I could tell he loved his stay and we're excited to have a great place for Pepper to stay when we travel.
Mari and Verena did a great job with our 14 year old lab and 3 year old bipolar heeler! They took them on a variety of walks from our house in both the neighborhood and on trails and sent pics of the happy boys. Super responsive and great communicators, we look forward to having them care for our dogs when we are away next, confident they are in good, loving hands!
My dog was in great hands! Definitely recommend them!
Wonderful family, took great care of my elderly pup! Would love to use them again.

Safety, trust & environment
We have a fenced in backyard and a large house with many dog beds. The dogs can have their own space or be social when they want to. Lots of cuddles are available all the time from my kids. We can play ball in the front yard, at local parks or the dog park. We go on walks regularly.
Information Mari & Steve C. would like to know about your pet
Is the dog up-to-date on vaccinations and preventative flea treatment? This is important for the safety of our pets and family and other clients' dogs! (For the record, our animals are up to date on all recommended vaccines - include Bordetella and flu -- and flea/heartworm treatments.) Is the dog crate-trained? Sometimes it really helps with the transition to provide the dog with the personal space they're used to. Any special commands we should use or characteristics / behaviors we should be on the lookout for?
A typical day
We have a great hilly neighborhood for walking and neighborhood dogs are always on leashes. A school nearby provides flat space and covered walkways in case of rain.
