Pet care experience

I have a love and passion for dogs!

Hello Rover, my name is Rhys. I'm a college student who has a huge love for animals of all shapes and sizes, with my core passion being dogs. I've lived with canine companions my whole life so I have plenty of experience handling many different breeds and sizes. From time to time I even volunteer at local animal shelters to assist with walking and other tasks. Since my classes are online, I have plenty of time to keep my guests entertained and my large fenced in yard will give them plenty of exercise. I guarantee your pups will have a great stay!

Rhys and his family have been a revelation and lifesaver for us. We moved to New Orleans recently and have no close friends. Sometimes we go on trips where taking our 11 year old Yorkie, Lou isn’t convenient. Rhys treats her like she was his own dog. Will use again and again. Great people. Highly recommend. Love the update photos and communication. My dog has found a home away from home.

Rhys was very polite and our girls were very comfortable with him and his family. It was my first time having our girls somewhere else other than home . They really helped feel at ease . He sent me pics throughout our time away and took notes of which one would need more attention. I am very pleased with Rhys and family for the love they gave our Lola and Cinnamon. Thank you again. I recommend them for sure.

Rhys was great with Lacey! He sent pics showing how well she was adjusting to her new surroundings and was genuinely engaged with her. I will definitely be booking with Rhys next time as well (If he's available)!

Safety, trust & environment

I'm very enrichment focused with a large fenced in back yard as well as an assortment of toys and safe healthy treats to satisfy and dogs energy and attention requirements.

A typical day

Like I said I am very enrichment-focused and bring dogs on regular trips and walks to the bridge park in town where they can run around a fenced-in field. I also focus on helping dogs feel comfortable and safe so that they can enjoy their stay and help them feel like they have a home away from home.
