Walks and Wags Dog Boarding

Pet care experience

My Wife and I have had dogs all our life as kids with our parents and as the primary caregiver as adults. We have 25 years experience with larger breed dogs (Rottweiler and Rottweiler / Shepherd mix) as the primary caregiver. Our much beloved RottieX has recently passed away, and we miss having a doggo around the house. We are experienced with both puppies and senior dogs, and have always considered our fur-babies as part of our family. We understand how stressful it can be to leave your pupper in someone else's care, and are willing to go the extra mile to make them feel at home. We both enjoy walking with dogs and we have a medium sized backyard for additional play-time. Our location has a few easily accessible parks, and are a short trip from the numerous walking trails along the lake. We're pretty much homebodies... Pups will join us when we're home, be it outside to play or when we're watching tv (quality belly scratching time). A meet and greet beforehand is an important part of making sure things go smoothly, but once we know them we'd be able to forgo extended notice for bookings. Looking forward to hearing from you.

Destiny had a great time, as always! We always feel so secure and comforted leaving Destiny with Mike and Maryanne. They send great pictures and keep us updated! Destiny will be back! Thanks again!

Our dog Archie has spent a week with Mike's family. Mike took a good care of Archie. I believe that Archie had a lot of fun and felt absolutely comfortable in Mike's house. Mike sent us notes and pictures. It made our vacation enjoyable and carefree

We boarded our Lab Benny with Mike and his wife for a week. Since Benny is our very much-loved fur baby we wanted to set him up with someone where he would be treated awesome and we definitely found that with Mike. I was so appreciative of the updates, pics and videos of Benny that Mike sent throughout the week. There were visits to the dog park and play time which no doubt Benny enjoyed. I would gladly rebook with Mike in future! Thanks for taking such good care of Benny!!!

A typical day

Walks are around our neighborhood, play-time in the back-yard and possibly a leash-free park if applicable. Additionally, on the off-chance, you have a husky (or similar breed or any dog that can pull), I have a dog-sled and harnesses. It's a small 2-dog sled but it's a blast!
