Totally understand either preference.

Information Ryan & Stephanie A. would like to know about your pet

We have labradoodles because they are hypoallergenic. Unfortunately someone in our home is allergic to short hair and sneezes up a storm so we can only accept hypoallergenic dogs.

A typical day

We have a relatively large property. We will do walks and playing in the backyard. Our kids will also want to take part in helping with your dogs. They love dogs.

Pets are Family

Pet care experience

We have had dogs for almost 15 years. We love them. I have also trained one of my dogs to be a therapy dog where we would go to a local school and read to kids. Someone is usually always home. We try to make sure dogs get outside time to play but the rest of the day and night time will be indoors. Plus we have kids that will love your dog up all day. We treat our pets like family and we will do the same for others. We do have household members that have allergies so our only caveat is the dog has to by hypoallergenic. I'm self employed and I don't work weekends. So I have the ability to come home during the week days more frequently or I'll be home during most of the weekend. We have 7 people in our house. So your pet will have plenty of attention. Plus my dogs are friendly with other dogs so they'll have some fur friends to play with.

Ryan, Stephanie, and the whole family were absolutely great to work with. Our Doodle stayed with them for several days, and had an absolute blast playing with them and their dogs. They have such a great house and yard for the dogs to play in, and our little buddy had the best time running around with their pack!
