Pet care experience

5 minutes from Deception Pass Park!

I love animals of all kinds and have a lot of experience with everything from dogs/cats to horses to rodents. ** I carry my own pet sitting insurance.** We are a self employed family which allows me to have a lot of time here at home. We currently share our home with a 7 year old Boxer. Also here (but not sharing our home!) are our chickens and 2 horses. When your dogs stay with us, they become part of our family. I only board one job at a time so your dogs will have lots of one on one attention. We have a very large fenced yard and a half mile long walking loop around the property. If the need arises, I do have separate fenced yards to give pups their own space. My husband Don has also provided a background check and helps care for our boarded dogs. If boarding with us is not for you, I (Sarah only) also do local house sitting and/or drop ins in your home. I also love walking dogs!

Sarah provided exceptional service once again! She was absolutely reliable, professional, and meticulous with all care for my cats and aquarium. She gave my cats quality play time each day and kept me well-informed of how they were doing. I have no worries when I am away if Sarah is caring for my pets!

I would like to know if your dog is aggressive at all when meeting new people/pets or if there are any situations where aggression is possible (ie. food aggressive) Your dog must be friendly with other dogs and be OK with small dogs. My dog is current on her vaccinations and are on a flea control program, I expect the same for yours.
