We will use the toys that you bring to us and play with them. We will use our back yard to enjoy the experience. We live in a quiet neighborhood and enjoy walking dogs.

Fun and Caring Experience in Venice

Pet care experience

Being home and retired we both would enjoy the company of one adult medium or large size dog. We have a comfortable smoke free home and a fenced in back yard in a safe neighborhood that makes a good fit and a pleasant experience for both the dog and us. We enjoy walking the dog and will give it attention. We do not have any pets in the home of our own. We will just have your dog at our home to enjoy. We take one dog at a time to give our undivided attention. Of course if you have 2 dogs from the same family we will be happy to sit for them as well. We prefer adult dogs over 3 years old. We take pride in sending you updates as often as you feel comfortable.

Marybeth and Russ are awesome. Ollie and Zoey had a great time staying with them. We were able to relax on our trip knowing our dogs were in good hands and with the updates/pictures they provided. We will definitely be using them again in the future!

Marybeth and Russ took great care of our Luna. They have a great fenced yard and a separate room for a dog crate, which our dog loves. Luna tends not to eat well when boarded but she ate great with them. If you are considering using them, I would definitely recommend!
