Pet care experience
We absolutely adore dogs and your little one will be spoiled rotten staying with us. We have experience caring for a special needs dog (our Frenchie was paralyzed for over 5 years before he passed away!). He needed assistance going pee and poop every day; so there is literally no dog who is too challenging for us. We have a huge back yard that is completely secured with a fence. Both of us work from home- so your dog will be closely watched, snuggled and loved throughout the day. While we have small children in the house, they have been trained to treat dogs gently and with love. Rest assured our toddlers will treat your doggy with respect! We will love yours as if they were our own, because we are dog lovers to the bone. It is rare that we ever leave dogs alone in the house, and when it happens it’s usually for a short trip to pick our kids up from school, gymnastics or soccer! One of us is almost always home to monitor and care for the dogs we host! We have a large four bedroom house. When your dog stays with us, our home is their home! We leave the back door open so they have access to our backyard that is completely fenced in and secure. We have AC units downstairs and in our bedroom so dogs (and us!) are comfortable even through the summer heat! We require a meet and greet for all new dogs before we complete the booking. This offers a chance to make sure that your pup feels comfortable in this new environment. It also provides an opportunity to discuss your dogs unique needs prior to the sitting. If we sound like a good fit for you and your doggie, please reach out! We look forward to meeting you and your pup! Both Amy and Sean work from home during the week, so your dogs will have constant attention. We usually “divide and conquer” on the weekends when we have kids activities to manage. So one of us is almost always home! We have a large four bedroom house, with a big backyard (and a hill that is very popular with the dogs we watch)! It is completely fenced in and secure. We also installed a baby gate on our front porch to keep dogs from slipping out when we open the front door!
Reviews
The best loving family make my dog feel like one of the family. And my dog is so high maintenance we lived getting photos and daily check-ins
I feel blessed to have found Sean and Amy. From the moment Amy emailed me back I knew it would be a positive experience. she gave me so much detail. They are both loving people and you can tell they treat your dog like family. They sent numerous texts and photos of my dog Mateo and of course that made me happy and put me at ease. I can tell when they take care of your dog they treat it as family. I'm looking forward to having them take care of Mateo on a long term basis.
Sean and Amy are godsends when it comes to dog care. We are so fortunate to have found them. They LOVE what they do, and it shows. Our Labrador Boone has had the best experience with them ever since his meet-and-greet. Their home and yard are super welcoming and encourage lots of play, and Boone still gets the human connection that he needs. We get the best pictures and video from his play dates and he RUNS to their house as soon as we arrive.
Amy and Sean took such good care of my dog Duffy during the Christmas holiday. He loved spending time with the other dogs and especially with Sean. Amy sent many pictures and updates so I was not nervous about how he was doing. I had a plane delay but they assured me that Duffy would be well cared for until I could get back. It was my first time using their boarding service and an all-around good experience. I recommend them.

Information Sean & Amy O. would like to know about your pet
Your dog needs to be good around small children and other dogs. We usually have more than one pup at a time and we want to make sure things remain playful. Yes, the occasional scuffle may occur, in which case we put on our referee hats and break it up! We are careful to make sure each dog is actually enjoying the playtime and if we see one who isn’t happy, we will bring them upstairs for cuddles in bed away from the other pups.
A typical day
Either the dogs or our six year old wakes us up first usually by 6AM! We let everyone outside while we prepare breakfast. Our 8 year old wakes up shortly after and greets each dog with some hugs and kisses. She is a self proclaimed “dog whisperer.” The day is then filled with lots of playtime, love and attention that is capped off by a long walk around the neighborhood with the family. If your dog is good off leash, they might play fetch at the park at the end of our street. During hot months, we sometimes wait until dark to take a big walk. Dinner is then served followed by couch time snuggles until it’s time for bed. We welcome all K-9’s to spoon if that is their jam! If not, that’s ok too! Lights out!
