Dog loving family in fenced in yard

Pet care experience

I have had a dog in my family since I was 10 years old. I cared for my most recent dog for 7 years before he passed away from cancer. I have watched the dogs of my friends and family on many occasions. We currently don’t have a dog in the house and are excited to care for your dogs as if they were our own!

Such a great experience boarding our 4 year old Cavi with Mark and his family. Thank you so much for taking care of Guru at extremely short notice! Very friendly and kind. Great home with lots of space for a comfortable stay. Generous updates and pics throughout the day! Thanks again - will definitely keep you in mind for Guru's future boardings.

Mark helped us with Diamond on short notice. He was extremely professional and even offered a meet and great which made us feel more safe leaving her with him. He provided pictures and made sure Diamond had fun, relaxing and safe environment to explore. Very responsive as well!

We needed a few days of dog sitting at his home while we tackled some home renovations and the dogs were lucky to have a great fenced in backyard to run around in and enjoy, as well as a kind host and family. Mark is an excellent communicator, responded quickly, and shared photos of our girls to show us how they were doing. Highly recommend!

Your dog will be physically and mentally stimulated here on our property. The large fenced in yard gives them plenty of places to sniff and explore!
