Trail hikes and a dog loving home
Pet care experience
I've owned dogs and/or cats for most of my life and cared for neighbors dogs/cats while they were away. I have a large yard and I enjoy taking long hikes on my neighborhood trail and beyond. My children are aged 11, 13, and, 16 and they are respectful, loving, and playful with the dogs/cats that we have cared for.
Reviews
Our dog had another wonderful stay with Rebecca and her family, including their dog Fern. Plenty of updates with photos during the stay. It was telling when our dog got out of the car during the drop off that he was really happy to be back with Rebecca. Will definitely board with her again!
Rebecca agreed to board our Australian Shepherd Levi even with not much notice as we were taking a last minute trip. She made sure he was comfy and communicated so well with pictures from their home and a fun trail hike. We would recommend her to anyone!
Rebecca was great as a sitter, and we ABSOLUTELY plan to request her services to watch our dog (a pit boxer mix) again in the future. We were a little nervous after not needing a sitter for several years, so we were a bit rusty on the whole experience. Rebecca was patient, listening to instructions, asking thoughtful follow-up questions, and being responsive throughout the stay. Her dog, Fern, is also a sweet pup and appeared to get along great with our dog. We got an appropriate amount of photos and updates. The neighborhood offers access to plenty of walking and romping opportunities which worked well for our dog. He can’t wait for his next visit!
Rebecca is reliable and flexible! Thanks for taking good care of Tracker.

Safety, trust & environment
I have a house with a large fenced in yard and an energetic hound mix that loves to play and run. Dogs are allowed on the furniture. There is space for a doggy bed and I feed the dogs separately. I take the dogs out on two 15-30 minute walks a day. I also take them on a half day/all day hike once or twice a week.

Training. Socialization. Sleep preferences. Triggers. Frequency of potty breaks, Eating routines/foods to avoid. Play preferences. Walking preferences. Do they like car rides? What does your dog do well? What are they working on?
A typical day
We can play fetch in the yard or run around. I live near the Northwest Branch Trail so I often go for hikes along the trail.
