Safety, trust & environment
We have a completely fenced in Backyard ( 6ft privacy ) our 4 Dogs are used to other dogs utilizing the yard while they are inside. We also have part of the yard with an additional fence which leads to a separate entrance to the house - meaning those babies we watch can have their own yard. We offer big Kennel Space with an elevated Bed - heat; a/c; TV some even decided last Summer to swim in our Pool which we are perfectly ok with :-) Our dogs are all fixed, UTD and on monthly preventative for flea and tick medicine - and always happy to have an additional fur friend join the walks. We had hospice dogs in the past and also quite a few fosters recovering from surgery and ok with giving daily medicine (not including shots)
Home
Information Sandra & Mark R. would like to know about your pet
We know shy and rescue dogs can have a hard time, if their have a trigger we would like to know that way we can adjust accordingly. Such as vacuum or even such as the fact some are terrified of hats. If your Baby is allergic to food or like one of ours to “sky raisins” that is also important for us to know.
A typical day
In the summer they can either use the in-ground pool or kiddie pool. We have a big yard that has a 6ft privacy fence offering ample space to play fetch. We stay close to a track so having daily walks and sniffari are definitely available. And for those little couch potatoes well they are more than welcome to enjoy doing what they love to do :-). But mental stimulation such as Kongs, puzzles are also available.

Reviews

Sandra and Mark took care of our Brahms. They send photo updates on how he was doing, they took great care of him he looked so happy in the photos. They have a pet friendly home and they really love animals. I recommend them for your pets needs. They are very professional.

Amazing! My dog is very shy and can be antisocial. I am always nervous about boarding him but this couple made my experience stress free. Very sweet and kept me updated throughout Bronx’s entire stay. 10/10 recommend. Will be booking again.

Our dog LOVED her time with Sandra and Mark. She normally takes a little time to warm up to new people and things, but she was instantly at home with them. She loved running around their yard and sitting in a little pool and sun tent that they offered her. They had excellent communication and sent us so many pictures. It’s so reassuring knowing your pup is in good hands when you’re away from them. We’d recommend them to anyone and would love to use them again in the future!


Sandra and Mark are the best!!! I don’t think anyone is as good as they are!!! They sent us many pictures and videos everyday. They truly do love dogs and took care of our dogs as if they were their own. We have no concerns with them watching them and suggest them to everyone!!!
