Safety, trust & environment

I do not have a fenced-in yard but we do have a lead that we attach to our house that I can hook your dog up too. But for the bigger/stronger dogs we take them out on their leash. Our dog eats once in the morning and once in the evening so whenever your dog is used to eating it shouldn't be a problem.

Information Samantha S. would like to know about your pet

I have experience with senior dogs and a dog that would throw up once a week. Please let me know if there are any special needs or specific needs your dog may have.

A typical day

My whole family loves to go on walks so there will be plenty of that. Also tug-of-war and catch are some of our favorite games to play.

No dog too big, no dog too small

Pet care experience

We love dogs in our family. I've had a dog in my life since I was 10 years old, from puppy to senior. Growing up we had small dogs, but I truly love every size dog. We love going for walks as a family with our dog. I have a 9 and 10 year old and they do a good job helping to take care of our dog. I am happy to set up a meet and greet in a public space to make sure our dogs get along.

Wonderful fun home for our pup! He has a great time! Highly recommend to others looking for a fun environment for their pup while they are out. We will definitely use them again when we are visiting the area
