fenced yard, lots of love and play!

Pet care experience

I’m working from home with my 8&9 year olds here with me and my two friendly dogs. My dogs frequent dog parks and get along great with other friendly dogs. I will only take friendly dogs, I always supervise new dogs to get acquainted with my dogs and kids. I’ve always owned multiple dogs and have a great awareness of dog temperament. We love dogs, and will take very good care of your fur babies if you need help. So much more love and constant attention than typical dog boarders I walk dogs in pairs of two in the morning, about a mile, then they all eat and play until about 1pm. I usually shut the doggie door to my backyard from 1-3 to give some time to rest. My kids usually play balls or toys (unless I have a toy nervous dog, then we skip props) until about 5:30. They get dinner at 5:30 and the doggie door gets shut at 7:30pm. If anyone needs to go potty after that I take them on leash out front, I don’t let them have free reign outside after 7:30 because it starts to get dark. My yards completely fenced in, plus my doggie door allows for the dogs to go in or out, get warm or cool off, and get water or visit the humans on demand. We have very happy dogs visit us! I have lots of references too :)

Ruthann, did a good job of handling two elderly dogs who where stressed from us going away for the day. The dogs where not being cooperative, it's hard to handle elderlies, she did the best anybody could do.

Ruth Anne and her husband were great with my dog. Frequent visits to the doggy park and everyday play dates with her dogs kept my dog very happy. She even didn’t mind when he took over her bed! Thank you for keeping him happy and healthy! We will definitely be rebooking in the future.

Thank you for taking such great care of Bella! She’s pooped which means she was playing and occupied a lot! I ‘think’ she’s glad to be home. This was such a great experience amd we look forward to a visit again! Thank you!!!

Ruthann and her family were great. We were very comfortable leaving our 2 little dogs with her. She had great communication and sent many pictures. We will definitely rebook.
