Must love dogs!

Pet care experience

Hi, we have owned dogs most of our lives. My wife and I have 2 children, both adults now, with only 1 still living at home (19 years old). Unfortunately we lost both of our furry children in the last year, though they lived long easy lives. Our family pets for the last 16 years were a German Shepherd boy and a Chow Chow girl. We loved them very much and miss them terribly. The pictures of our backyard are from my sons photography class, and the assignment was to tell a story using the camera. I promise no one is going to steal your dog! Plus the grass looked great in those photos! :) “Dogs are not our whole life, but they make our lives whole.” ― Roger A. Caras An update, we now have two German Shepherd puppies, so are on hiatus from rover.

I don't take leaving my little guy with strangers very lightly. Michael and his family took excellent care of my dog. I received pictures daily and he got plenty of exercise. He was happy and tired when I got him home. Very happy.

Michael and Debi were wonderful dog sitters. They were kind, welcoming, and attentive to our two senior dogs that stayed with them overnight. Our pups looked so relaxed and pampered by the time we came to pick them up in the morning. Michael and Debbie made sure to update us with pictures throughout the day and were very responsive and communicative. I would recommend them to anyone looking for compassionate, reliable dog sitters!

Michael and his wife Debi have been responsible dog owners for more than 20 years. They truly are dog lovers! I can't think of any other couple that I would feel comfortable leaving my pets with.

Information Michael A. would like to know about your pet

Please let us know if you pup has any special needs or behavioral concerns. We take general precautions around food, etc, but the more we know the better we can manage. Special needs or behavior issues are not a deal breaker, so please don't be shy. The more we know, the better experience everyone has!

A typical day

We live by the centennial trail, so we have miles of walk, close to our home. We have a well fenced yard, but dogs are never left outside unsupervised. We are home all day, and your dogs will be around a person 99% of the time. We have traditionally owned German Shepherds and Chow Chows in the past.
