Pet care experience

You're Pup's Home Away from Home!

Candice and Matt both have 25+ years of experience caring for all types of dogs of all ages. During the first several years of our marriage, we got to provide foster care for many dogs who were awaiting adoption to a forever home. Additionally, our family has always been the “go-to” family for friends, relatives, and neighbors when it comes to dog boarding. We have a big house, a large and fully fenced yard, and a safe neighborhood to walk your dog. Did I mention our children love dogs!? Your dog will be pampered, played with, and well-cared for in our home...they truly become a part of our family when they stay with us. Drop offs and Pick ups are always scheduled and we can be flexible, but do not do pick ups or drop offs before 7am or after 9pm.

It was Bernie’s second stay during our two week trip to Tennessee. He had the best time and will miss spending time with Matt and Candice’s beautiful family!

Matt and Candice give Coco so much care and attention, she seems hesitant to leave when I pick her up. I'm so pleased to have them keep her on my trips.

Matt and Candice and their family were incredible. Pretty sure Bernie had a better time at their place than ours :) He was well cared for, loved by the children and most importantly -- they made it absolutely easy for us to enjoy our time away knowing that he was with a great family.

Candice and her family were absolutely wonderful with our puppy. At such a young age, puppies can be a lot but they were so attentive and provided updates along with the cutest pictures. I would HIGHLY recommend.

Candice and Matt are always good with our little girl! They always send pictures and let us know how she is doing! We worry about her eating but they always tell me she is eating and how much. We will definitely use them again!

Safety, trust & environment

We have 5 children, all older school-aged and above. All of them are very good around dogs, and we love it whenever we have a guest pup staying with us! You can see all of our kids playing with dogs in our picture gallery. We have two cats who are very independent and stick to themselves. They don't mind dogs and just stay out in the garage and outside when we have new dogs over. So if your dog is a cat chaser and that is a potential concern of yours, rest assured, they will be ok in our home.

Pets

A typical day

We love to play fetch, go on walks, or go to the parks near our home. We just enjoy spending time outside, so anything that gets us outdoors and moving around! We also love a good snuggle on the couch if that's your dog too!
