Hugs Kisses and LOTS of Love

Pet care experience

I have a very big heart for animals. It is an innate skill brought down from my mom. She would rescue and care for any animal she found. Needless to say, we had a lot of pets during my childhood. In the last 5 years I have rescued my two boys Axel and Brutus. They have become best friends and love when they get play friends to visit. They love sharing and playing and have been very well socialized with other dogs, I have a large fenced back yard which they have full access to. When we have friends at the home i stay with the dogs at all times to ensure they are all getting exercise and having fun. We have nap time daily where the dogs have choices of beds couches laps and floors, whichever the prefer. I can handle medications, feedings and special requests. Give us a chance! Your only regret may be that your fur baby may not want to leave! :)

Mark took wonderful care of my puppy, Rio! Rio is super energetic, and he had an amazing time running around Mark’s spacious backyard — it's huge and perfect for active dogs. Mark sent daily photo and video updates, which gave me so much peace of mind knowing Rio was happy and well looked after. Mark was extremely responsive and accommodating, especially since my schedule was a bit uncertain. Mark was flexible with timing and very easy to work with throughout the entire stay. Rio clearly enjoyed his time there!!!
