Looking For Dog Pals - Fenced Yard
I’ve grown up with dogs and now have an 8-year-old Golden Retriever. He’s getting a little older but we still enjoy walks around the neighborhood and running around the yard. We like having dog guests to hang out with. I’ve watched dogs for friends and family over the years and enjoy having them around the house. I only host one dog at a time (or multiple dogs from the same family).
Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
Matthew was great, he was very accommodating. Our dog had plenty of play time and attention: she went on walks and loved having a fenced in yard to explore. Matthew communicated well with us. He provided plenty of updates and pictures, which we really appreciated this having been our first time using someone for boarding!
Overall great experience! Super communicative and a great host for my dog. She had a great time - no issues whatsoever

I can provide daycare and overnight stays in my home. Can be flexible with start and end times and can include pick-up or drop-off, if near by.

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
Your dog’s safety and comfort are the priority here. I only take one dog at a time (or multiple from the same family) to ensure a relaxed environment for the dogs and for me. I work from home, so the dogs are rarely left alone, and they’ll have regular access to a fenced yard, walks, and time to relax inside. I try to keep things low-stress and stick to your dog’s normal routine as much as possible, whether that’s feeding schedules, medications, crate preferences, or exercise needs. My dog is friendly, and comfortable around other dogs, but I always prefer slow introductions to make sure we'll be a good match. I’m happy to send updates and photos during your dog’s stay so you know how they're doing

A typical day
I work from home, so the dogs are rarely left alone and get plenty of attention and exercise throughout the day. We have a fenced yard for playtime and outdoor breaks. I usually take my dog on a long walk during lunch along with quite a few backyard play sessions throughout the day.
