Hello! Leaving your furry child with someone can definitely be very scary and stressful. Ryan and I hope to make you and your pet as comfortable and relaxed as possible during their stay. Both Ryan and I have had pets since we were little and have been watching dogs for the past 3 years. We always had a dog growing up, along with numerous other animals; cats, iguanas, hamsters, guinea pigs, rabbits, and even horses. Sara was also a vet tech for a couple years, and went to school for pre veterinary medicine. She currently works in the medical field and is very comfortable administering meds, changing bandages etc. Our previous dog had epilepsy, so we are also very comfortable with special needs dogs. Ryan works from home full time and is always available play with the pups and take them out for potty breaks. We are not typically away from the house unless it’s a quick run to the grocery store. We tend to do a lot of hiking with our dogs on the weekends, so if your dog is up for it, we would love to take them. Our dogs have complete access to our whole house at all times. They are free to go in and out as they please. They will get a minimum of 2 walks a day - probably more. We currently have more dog beds than human beds in our house, and an abundance of toys that are typically all over. We have a ton of treats and treat/toy activities for them to play with to keep them from getting bored. If you book with us on the weekend, your dog will most likely be joining us on a hike. We are pretty active and love to take our dogs with us on our adventures. Overall we are huge animal lovers and would love to care for your furry child. We will also bathe and clip nails for a small fee. Please inquire if interested.

We have had lots of issues with male dogs urinating on things in our home. If things go well the first day or two we can remove it, but to be sure there will be no marking they will be required to wear one in the beginning. ** please inquire about discounts.
