Experienced Dog Obsessed Sitters

Pet care experience

My husband and I love dogs and love to pet sit! We have a sweet rescue terrier mix named "Winston" who we love dearly and consider a full fledged member of our family. He is friendly with other dogs and loves to play! We own a small row house with a fenced back yard in a very dog friendly neighorhood. My neighbor also lets me use his large fenced (and puppy proof) corner lot yard for all the dogs I host as my own personal dog park! There are several dog parks near by and lots of nice sidewalks and paths for lovely walks. Our house is fully puppy proof and has plenty of cozy little spaces for your dog to make himself at home. We have a ton of dog sitting experience! I had my own beautiful Norfolk terrier when I was growing up and I handled most of his care myself. I also spend a lot of time with my mom's dog aka my dog brother (seen in my profile picture) whenever I go to my mom's house in NC. My husband had Bernese mountain dogs growing up and he is currently scheming ways to get another one! Currently, we puppy sit regularly for several friends and coworkers. We are both very responsible,patient, kind pet sitters and will treat your furry friend as if he or she were our own.

Polly was a great sitter! Rue was so happy when he came home and I knew he had a great weekend. I would definitely recommend Polly and consider her for Rue during my next trip!

Efficient drop off and pick up. Very responsive and communicative. I received multiple pics per day. My little guy was definitely in their loving home. He even got to make friends with two of the bigger dogs. I think Bentley just found some god parents! If Polly and Xavier have the space, don't go anywhere else!

Information Polly M. would like to know about your pet

We like to know about the dog's preferences in terms of food and activities, any house rules that the pet parents would like for us to uphold while the dog is visiting (not sleeping in beds, staying off furniture, etc.), and if the dog has any allergies.

A typical day

Whenever we are hosting dogs we plan our schedule and activities around whatever the dogs will enjoy. On the weekends we frequently take the dogs to dog parks, on long walks, and to various other puppy friendly activities.
