All animals treated like family

Pet care experience

I have over 30 years working with dogs ranging from Alaskan Malamutes to Golden Retrievers and a few cats in between, and I love them all. I currently volunteer at ARF (American Rescue Foundation). Any animal under my care will be treated like my own at all times.

Rob was fantastic, he listened carefully to our requests for our two bulldogs, and he delivered excellent care. We will definitely use Rob again.

I have personally known Rob for over 25 years and have seen the care he gives his own pets. He loves and cares for them like family. I would feel very comfortable leaving my dog in his care. I know he would give him the same attention and love I would.

Safety, trust & environment

My dogs get a healthy balance of outdoor and indoor time. I don’t like to crate animals unless absolutely necessary. Rewards are given more with love and affection and less with tasty treats. Absolutely no table food unless it is prepared specifically for our 4 legged friends. Overall just try to keep them happy without spoiling them too much:)

Information Rob I. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if you’re dog has any special needs, past traumas or abnormal behaviors. The more information you provide the better prepared I will be to provide the best care.

A typical day

A typical day with my dogs involved going on a long nature walk/hike/swim and most importantly let the dogs be dogs, that’s when they are the most happy!
