Little snuggles & big cuddles!
Pet care experience
With 20 years of experience between my husband and I (even more, counting childhood pets) your furry friend is sure to be well taken care of! We both grew up with dogs and/or cats in the home. We love big hugs🐶, small cuddles🐶 and soft purrs🐱, all the same! ❤️❤️❤️ Our daughter loves having pets around. We love sharing our home with furry friends and look forward to welcoming yours! We live in a single family home with a partially fenced back yard (the driveway from the alley is not fenced). Your dog will not be outside unleashed. Your cat and/or dog will remain safely inside our home.
Reviews
Took good care of my Yorkiepoo. I just moved into the area, so I was nervous on finding a new sitter Karter would like. Sharon sent pics to ease my worries. Thank you Sharon and fam! Informative feedback when I picked him up. We’ll be back again! Thank you
Sharon and Dan (and little R) will be a top choice for our twin boys for as long as we need occasional doggy daycare. Their gentle environment and loving style made them so positively memorable to our pups, even after an absence of many months. It was obvious they knew exactly whose house they were going to, and even our "Charles-in-Charge" guy completely let his guard down, acting like a puppy from the moment we arrived. We tried to do this day on a budget by having someone come to the house and walk the dogs. But when we see that our pets get something extra special from the experience that helps them grow, we know that it's worth every penny and more.
Sharon and family were great to my pup, even though he wasn't the best-behaved during his time with them. They are very patient and frequently sends pics and updates. Would recommend to anyone looking for a reliable family for your pets.
Our regular sitter was out of town, and also we needed someone or a family who'd understand that one of our two pups had been in the ER twice in the past week with mysterious GI troubles. This family not only didn't mind administering medicine to our sick dog, they also gently introduced their six-year-old so our boys had a youngster to play with during an overall mellow sort of daycare day. I arrived to find two completely chill pooches, ready to go home with mommy, but not particularly eager to leave. It was just the kind of day they needed following all the late-night sitting around in examination rooms with serious gut issues. We hope to see Sharon and Dan again in the future for our doggie daycare needs!

I have a young daughter who loves cats and dogs and is playful and kind with them. I ask that you please let me know if your pet does not do well with children. I'd also like to know if they are house-trained. Come see us!
A typical day
If you'd like, we will go for walks in our quiet neighborhood. There is also a neighborhood park that we can walk to for a little adventure. If your pet prefers, we can stay indoors and do whatever they’d like. Does your pet have a favorite fun activity that the like to do sometimes? I am also comfortable continuing any commands/training that you may be working on (stay…sit…off, etc.)
