Currently working from home with my wife also off on Fridays. We feed our three twice a day and they have a doorbell to let us know when they want to go outside or come inside. Biscayne and Juneau love to go in and out to play and relax in the sun. We spend the evenings outside in a garden and some additional play time.

Fenced Yard & Lots of Love

Pet care experience

Samuel & Rakellie have relocated and added another dog to their family after a couple years off from pet sitting. We’ve returned to pet sitting as our girls love to have visitors and other dogs to play with. We still have a fenced yard full of space to run around in. There are shady spots and branches to play fetch with as well as a screened patio perfect for laying in the sun. We also have a dog friendly pool but will only allow them in if we receive approval first. We also have a house great for indoor playing on rainy or not great weather days. Our dog, Biscayne, has a prescription speciality diet so we are comfortable doing specialized food combinations and pills. She also loves all dogs and people. There hasn't been one time where she hasn't gotten along with anyone. Roma, our cat is almost like a dog as well. Juneau, our newest addition, loves to play with everyone no matter their size. Our animals are truly one of the family. We allow them in our bed and on the furniture. Talking, playing, and lots of love and attention are always guaranteed.
