Pet care experience

Your pet will leave happy & tired!

We both grew up with dogs and have always loved them. We are proud owners of 2 rescue dogs and love socializing our pups with new dogs and new experiences. Rachel previously volunteer trained service dogs for 4 Paws for Ability. When your pup stays with us, we will spend time playing, walking, running, visiting a local dog park, or cuddling on the couch. We use positive reinforcement to train dogs and correct behavioral issues. We are happy to provide baths if the dog gets dirty with us. Dogs must be up to date on shots. We are mostly available on weekends, since Rachel works as a school counselor during the week and Nick works in finance. We hope you choose us to watch over your precious pups!

Thank you, Rachel & Nicholas, for another great getaway for my family while we were away and for our dog's getaway in the care of your home. Fi and Royal are looking lost after I picked them up this afternoon, so now I'm not sure who enjoyed their time away the most? lol.

This is the vacation spot for my dogs. As much as I look forward to my vacations it appears they are also looking forward to theirs. When I pull up to Rachel and Nick's house to drop them off, I can barely open the car door fully before they both jump out and run to the front door. I have booked with them for the last couple of years and will continue as long as they let me. Thank you Nick and Rachel for taking such good care of Royal and Fi. Knowing that they are with such a loving pet care family gives me peace of mind when I am away from them.
