We are a pet family

We are a family of loving pet owners! We have 1 family dog and 2 cats but have room to watch one more dog for a family who is looking for trustworthy reliable people who will treat their dog like a loving family member. We fostered pets for many years for local animal rescues. We have experience with senior dogs and special needs dogs. All our dogs are under twenty pounds so we would like to stick with small dogs. Pets in our house are treated more like children than pets, they can always come on the furniture and can sleep wherever they want to. We have a fenced yard and a great neighborhood for walking. Our house has a laid back feel that is perfect for watching a beloved dog while your family is on vacation.

As always, Phoebe had a great time and was well taken care of. It’s nice to be able to leave knowing that someone you trust is watching someone you love.

Paula kindly made herself available the day before Easter and at the last minute. Nice to know my Phoebe is in good hands.

It’s nice to be able to drop off your dog and not worry about him or her. My Phoebe loves to go there.

Because of our own family pets it is important that any pet who stays with us gets along well with other dogs and cats. We usually prefer having adult of senior dogs stay with us instead of puppies who require a little more care.
