Living my best dog life!

I have had a dog in my life since I was 10! From Gizmo, a small poodle mix, to Chubs, a large black lab, and two boxers, Sugar and Pinky, I have had a four legged friend most of my adult life! Both of my boxers lived to be 13 years old. An amazing feat by most accounts! Walking, playing, exploring new places and a good diet all contributed to my dogs living a long healthy life. I would like to help you do the same for your dogs!

Paul always provides the best care for our pups. This time we experienced some extensive travel delays and Paul was very responsive and worked with us to make sure our pups had continued care. We appreciate Paul’s overall care and flexibility.

I am currently working from home and have lots of time to devote to animals. This may even become a permanent gig as I get closer to retirement.

Safety, trust & environment

I have a large fenced yard with lots of shade so we can spend some time outside. I try and walk around the neighborhood 3-4 times a day. My home has air conditioning if it gets too hot and heat if it gets too cold. I have baby gates and a large crate if needed. Chew toys, water bowls, dog beds and just about anything else a dog could need is here. Our friends refer to the house as Camp Schneider-Martsolf when dropping off their pets!

A typical day

In warmer weather I love to start my day with a walk in the gardens in my backyard. With a dog, a quick walk around the neighborhood gets the blood flowing. For higher energy dogs a hike up Green Mountain is a good option.

My time in the Marine Corps taught me a lot about attention to details. I take notes on any specific needs your pet will need while you are away.
