Pet care experience

Active guy who loves dogs

I’ve grown up with dogs my entire life, and currently have a 4 year old black lab named Cooper. My wife and I plan a lot of our life around Cooper and where he is able to come with us. He gets a long walk every day and we usually wrestle at night. He watches TV on the couch with us and sleeps in our bed. Cooper is very social and loves playing with other dogs, however he is not the least bit dominant and is content to just chew a bone if the other dog doesn’t want to play. We’d take care of your pet the same way we treat Cooper.

We really appreciate the excellent care our dog has gotten while we get to stay in MSP and spend quality time with our grandchildren! She has stayed with Cooper several times and so happy to have found you all, thanks again!

Ruby always has the best time with Nick, Stephanie and Cooper! It's great to feel confident when leaving your pet with good people, you know they are well taken care of. And the pics show how relaxed our Ruby was, she enjoyed walks, playing and naps

Nick and Stephanie were fantastic. They had our two dogs (one shy old man and one energetic puppy) for just over two weeks and kept me updated with pictures throughout the stay. Our shy guy warmed up quickly and seemed right at home with them!

Leon had a great time with Nick and Stephanie. He got lots of walks and play time and came home happy. Would definitely recommend and use them again!

Schedule

My wife and I both work full time, but our schedules are a little staggered so Cooper is usually only home alone for about 7-8 hours total. We keep him with us for the entire weekend. He gets a long walk each afternoon and is fed twice a day (+snacks)

A typical day

We have a doggy pool in our backyard for the dogs to play in during the summer and a fenced in backyard. We go on a 2-4 mile walk everyday, and play fetch in the house at night. My wife Stephanie usually makes homemade yogurt treats each week for our dog Cooper and he loves them!

Let us know about any medication or any special needs your dog may have. Also would like to know if they enjoy playing with other dogs or would prefer to be left alone more during the day.
