Your Favorite Sitter!

Pet care experience

Our home for our dog guest (s): Our large fenced yard with beautiful stone deck is ideal for your dog (s) to relax outside. The yard is well cared for and if your dog likes to play ball, so do we. Our home is set up indoors with couches and doggie beds for your dog to enjoy our company and relax together. I am a single dad with grown children that love pets to make sure your dog is well cared for and having a great time in a family setting. We deliver better care, fewer dog guests at a time and a real vacation for your dog where they are free in the home 24/7. If you have more than 1 dog, the rate per night drops $10 for each additional dog (= 2nd dog would be $40 per night, 3rd dog would be $30). Your dog (s) will be free in the yard as often as they want but in addition will be walked a few miles per day if they are physically capable. You will receive a picture of your dog every day by text to you directly so you see how happy your dog is. We also sit and provide care thru visits for Dogs, Parrots, Reptiles, Cats, Tropical Fish and Small Various Pets. Visit costs are a flat visit cost regardless of how many pets ($25). We aim to make care in our home or yours as convenient and flexible for you as possible. We have experience, lots of love to give and you will really like the care we provide. Our pictures here are all from actual dog stays with us. We do not have a dog of our own so we can provide a warm home centered around your furry loved one. Why is your dog going have a great stay here: I have loved and cared for pets all my life: Dogs (Poodle, Schnauzer, Cocker spaniel, Chihuahua, Doberman and Retriever). I have had other pets such as cats, snakes, hamsters, rabbits, guinea pigs, fish, parrots. I have been caring for the animals of others for 40 years and really enjoying it. About my yard: Beautiful stone deck with grassy well kept area all around. The entire yard is fenced in and locked swinging fence entries to assure they are secure the entire stay. My experience administering medication: Yes provided you provide instructions and a schedule. We will rank low in your search because we have to decline many dog requests to assure my guests don't exceed 3 or that yours is/are the only guests so it's safe, clean and relaxing for your best friend (s). Book well in advance after we meet and greet, and then great dog care is a sure thing. Walks, care, comfort, roaming free in the home 24/7 and love are included within the cost. This is not a business for me, it's not about how many dogs I can book, it is about the most rewarding hobby for an experienced dog handler. It's all about your 4 legged awesome family members having a great time. Thank you Phil

Phil was wonderful! He was so accommodating for drop off & pick up times. His house is set up perfectly for dogs - security gates by the doors, lots of beds & couches to lounge on plus a large fenced-in backyard. He sent us pictures of our dog every day which was very comforting since this was our first time leaving him with Phil. We highly recommend Phil and will definitely use him again.

This is my first experience using Phil and I was very satisfied with his services I have three dogs and prefer to keep them home when I travel so I booked three daily visits which worked out well. I returned home from my week long vacation to find my three babies happy and well taken care of. I will use Phil in the future and highly recommend him to all you dog lovers out there.

Information Philip W. would like to know about your pet

I have no breed preferences but confirm the temperaments of any breed before home boarding multiple dogs. I see your pet as your child and each one has different needs. Your loved one's stay with me is customized to your preference for exercise and your instructions.

A typical day

We customize exercise to your instructions. The yard is large enough for ball playing and any other exercise. The stone deck is a doggie favorite because it always stays cool even on warm days. We have a beautiful neighborhood with lots of dogs being walked and we would love to walk yours often here too. Your dog's sleeping arrangement Your dog can sleep anywhere in the home where they are comfortable. Some of the dogs we watch choose to sleep in the bedrooms with us at night, on couches or on doggie beds we provide. Time I'll spend with your dog There is always someone home to take them out and play with your loved one. We will view my house together so you can make recommendations for moments where we might be running errands to make sure your loved one is comfortable and safe no matter what. There are no extra charges for walking, providing toys, a pet bed or caring for your pet beyond the daily cost advertised. Any other costs you see on this profile are for "at your home services" which are great option for multiple dogs/pets offered at a flat rate regardless of number of pets.
