I am thoughtful and considerate of all dogs that I see every day. Every pet has their own personality and I always read behaviors as I want them to feel comfortable. Your pet will never be crated unless you request it.

Information Ryan D. would like to know about your pet
Please let me know if there’s anything that your dog needs, behaviors, or allergies I should know about. Any type of food that they don’t digest very well or any type of prescriptions or treatments they are taking. Please let me know if you’re dog bites at all, so I can act accordingly. I won’t deny you but a heads up would be great! Thank you! Looking forward to meeting you!
A typical day
I like for them to get a lot of exercise throughout the day as I do with my own dog. Anytime I let them out I will either go to the dog park or go for a walk. If theres fun things you do with them that they enjoy I would love to add that in as well! Just want them to enjoy the experience!

Pet care experience
I have taken care of all kinds of dogs for my family and friends since I was a kid. We take dog boarding seriously and safety is our number one priority.(As I was a former marine.) Your dog will always have someone around to give it lots of attention and affection.We do everything we can to meet the needs of your dog to assure they are safe comfortable, and having fun during their stay. I am home full time! Very flexible with any schedule your dog might have. We have a dog park right behind me. You will be updated regularly. I am available at any time throughout the week. I am excited and looking forward to getting to know you and your pups! I will make your experience with me as easy as possible! Also my dog will entertain your pup if tempted but he’s smart enough to know to mind his business.

Reviews

Ryan and his family were the perfect hosts for our dog Daryl. Daryl stayed for a week, which is the longest we’ve left him, and it was a great experience. Daryl loved playing with Ryan’s dog, Cooper. Ryan and his family are easy going and accommodating and created a wonderful welcoming environment for Daryl.

Ryan did great with drop in visits for our dogs! One is diabetic and we really appreciate the care he showed.

Daryl had a great time at Ryan’s. Daryl LOVED playing with Ryan’s dog, and his home is very comfortable and dog-friendly. Ryan has a great demeanor that put Daryl - and us - at ease. We have already planned our next visit!

Ryan was amazing with my dog, Bruno. I had originally thought my dog would not get along with his dog and be problematic but actually was the opposite. Ryan, sent pictures and my dog was in great hands.
