Loving pet care w/fully fenced yard

Hi! We're Nicole and Nathan - an animal loving couple who have been taking care of dogs, cats, and other critters for over 25 years each. We have 2 dogs and 1 cat of our own. We live in a split level house near Cedar Park Elementary School and have a very large, fully fenced back yard, a downstairs area for the dogs/cats that is spacious, comfortable, and opens directly to the fenced back yard. We also have two kids (an 8 year old son and a 6 year old daughter). They are both very used to animals and enjoy our furry visitors. We have crates for your dog/cat if they feel more comfortable at night in a crate. We also have lots of dog/cat beds - with heated pads inside! We've both raised dogs from puppies before and currently have an 11 year old black lab who just sleeps all day and a 3 year old Australian Shepherd who loves to run, play, and is a ball of love. We also have 1 cat who is one year old and 15 pounds of fluff. He's the most relaxed cat on the planet and gets along with all other animals (though he stays separate from the dogs, so he doesn't interact with them).

Another happy stay. Always good communication, flexibility with drop off and pick up times, and the daily photos showed our Labrador was happy and content.

Nathan watched our two dogs for almost two weeks and they came home happy, healthy and tired out (a good thing)! He is also great about sending pictures of the dogs. This is the second time he’s watched our dogs and we have felt like they are in great hands both times.

Nate is extremely responsive and shared many photos of my dog while I was away. My dog came home happy and tired from having so much playing time. I will definitely use Nate again.

Schedule

Nicole works from home part-time and Nathan works from home full-time, so our furry house guests get LOTS of attention and love. We walk our own dogs (and yours) once or twice a day - once in the early morning and once in the early evening. They also get a lot of backyard ball play unless it's pouring. We feed all animals separately at the same time each day and any food not eaten gets put away/offered later to ensure no fights break out.

Pets

A typical day

A typical day here: starts out early with a vigorous walk or run (6 or 7 am), then a rest, some water, and breakfast for everyone (separately of course). Your cat or dog will hang out with Nathan on cozy dog beds while he works - taking frequent backyard breaks to run, play, or fetch balls. A walk in the later afternoon or early evening rounds out the day. Then everyone gets dinner - separately again. We all hang out as a family together in the evenings and your fur baby will get lots of love and attention. At night, they'll have a cozy place to sleep with other furry friends. (Note: if your cat or dog needs to be kept separate from our animals, that is totally fine - it would mean the same type of day as described above, just done separately).

It's helpful to know: - If your cat or dog has any special needs - Any special dietary requirements - Any medications your dog might need administed during their stay with us - Any behavioral habits we need to know about - If your dog or cat needs to be kept separate from our animals or away from our children (Ages 6 and 8).
