Pet care experience

Dogs are my people

***. I WILL NO LONGER BE ACCEPTING LARGE DOGS. MY DOG WAS SEVERELY INJURED AND DISABLED. THE OWNERS HAVE TAKEN NO RESPONSIBILITY. AMANDA, AUGUST, AND NORMAN(DOG), STAY AWAY FROM BOARDING, OR ALLOWING YOUR DOG TO BE BOARDED WITH ANY COMBINATION OF THESE.*** I have always had pets, mostly dogs as long as I can remember. They hold a special place in my life and are considered a part of my family. I joke with my fiancee that I like animals more than I like people, so caring for your pet becomes an extension of my family. There is nothing like coming home to a full body wag, excited whines, and a smile so big it can hardly be contained, always the best part of coming home for me. Until you get back to experience for yourself, I am happy to help keep your pet happy, healthy, and safe.

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

I have a fenced yard, and two of my own very friendly dogs. Both are very sociable and love to play with other animals. Both of them like to help make everyone feel welcome.

Phillip was great with the dogs and cat. The communication was excellent and he was always on time. I would recommend him to other looking for someone to watch their pets

Phillip was absolutely amazing! I am very selective and cautious with who I leave my pups with, but within minutes of meeting him, Phillip made me feel immediately at ease. You can tell he loves our pups as if they were his own and loves the cuddles! I cannot thank Phillip enough for his flexibility and great care. We will definitely be reaching back out next time we go on a trip :)

It feels good to have someone that I completely trust to care for my mom’s sweet Pug Louie. I got so many great updates and pictures and know that Louie was completely spoiled while he was there. I can’t recommend Phillip strongly enough!!
