Information Nick M. would like to know about your pet

Does your dog have any known food allergies? Are they up to date with their vaccinations and shots? Is your dog fixed? No, your dog will not be the only dog here

I usually have multiple guests at a time and they are encouraged to play. Some days we live the dog life with lots of snuggles and scratches. If it’s been a lazy day we’ll go for walks depending on energy and activity levels

Dogs Love Us!

Pet care experience

We have been watching people's furry children for about 8 years. Watching the dogs is my full time job. My 20-year old son and 17-year old daughter are great around the dogs and care for our guests as their own. Despite the propensity for dogs to trade food like it's a middle school lunch we will make sure diets are carefully followed. On the weekends the dogs will accompany us on dog-friendly errands, walks on the local trail and the occasional lazy day living a dog's life. Your dog will get plenty of Attention, Cuddles, Scratches and Ball throws depending on their energy and personality. We have a big, fenced back yard with artificial turf to minimize the mess and keep the dogs clean in all weather. Please note dogs that are significantly bigger than 100 lbs may be subject to modified rates. ***Overnight requests are required to have a Meet and Greet as well as the possibility of a 2nd visit without owners present. There is no negotiating this requirement***

Zuca had a blast! It was so obvious how much fun she had playing with other dogs because she was smiling ear to ear when we picked her up!

Nick is very responsive and took great care of Ozzy! He doesn’t let him ignore the rules which we appreciate and sends lots of pictures.

Nick was great and very accommodating on very short notice. His prices are more than fair. I would absolutely recommend Nick to others in the area that need a dog watcher.
