Long time dog fosters

Pet care experience

Both my husband and I have been fostering dogs for over 15 years and after hundreds of dogs ranging from puppies to elderly dogs with special needs, we've had them all! We prefer small dogs under 30# so our older dog (a foster failure) feels comfortable. We both work from home and are very hands on with the dogs we are watching. I'm up early in the morning for let out and feeding and we take many breaks through the day for breaks and play time! We have a large fenced in yard with doggie door access April-Oct. We have an indoor run location for the cold winter months so your doggie still gets play time in and comes home tired! We will follow the rules and schedule you have for your dog so when you return you aren't having to break bad habits.

Martene and John are awesome with our dog. We never worry one bit about our dog while she is in their care!

Martene and John were always quick to respond, sent lots of updates while we were gone, and our pup seemed well cared for!

Martene did a wonderful job of taking care of Thumper while I was out of town. I couldn’t have asked for more. I look forward to them taking care of Thumper when I travel in the future. Thanks

Martene and John did a great job of looking after my new little one - via daily updates. Moukie still has alot of puppy in her and with their large fenced in yard, it was a paradise for Moukie. Thanks Martene and John!!

Information Martene & John A. would like to know about your pet

We would need to know of any aggressive behaviors or special needs in advance. It would be nice to know the things they love to help them feel more at home with us. We also need to know if the dog has not been spayed or neutered. We would prefer that all animals be fixed.

A typical day

We have loads of toys at our house, with dog beds in every room! We have a doggie door to an almost acre of fenced in property. We have a wooded neighborhood where we go on walks in private cul-de-sacs with little to no traffic.
