I love fur babies!
Pet care experience
I am a lifelong dog and cat owner (35+ years), I love all animals, and I believe in treating them as family members. At my home or yours, they will be cared for exactly how you ask, and I will keep you updated with regular photos! Having needed pet-sitters for dogs, cats, and horses of my own over the years, I know how important it is to find someone reliable, attentive, communicative, and detail oriented. **I'm happy to take care of pets with special needs, on a case by case basis. Dog Boarding and Doggie Daycare: We live on just over two acres and our front yard is fully fenced for dogs. Our fence is a 4-4.5 ft post and rail with interior dog fence (see gallery pictures), so if your dog is a 'jumper', this is something to consider. While I will be the primary caregiver while your dog is staying with us, my husband will also be present and helping to look after your pups. We both have experience with all types of dogs, especially those who have a hard time socializing with others. We also particularly love big dogs and senior dogs. We've spent significant time in dog behavior, training, and CGC classes with our own dogs and strongly believe in positive reinforcement techniques. While your dog is boarding with us, I will make sure he or she feels at home and has lots of fun! Dog Walking: I can offer dog walking as a single service, or as part of dog boarding/daycare. Contact me for more details :) Please don't hesitate to contact me with questions!
Reviews
Ryan and Sharon were amazing! They sent so many pics, and you could tell they genuinely liked having my dogs around and playing with them. Coming from a crazy bulldog person I would 10/10 recommend them to watch your fur child!
Our dogs loved staying with Sharon and Ryan! They had plenty of exercise and love! Looking forward to our next booking! Thank you!
I've been meaning to write this review and finally got around to it! I'm soooooo happy we found Sharon and Ryan. Our dogs Niko and Kimba absolutely loved staying there with them. I am always nervous leaving our dogs with a sitter but we are so grateful to have found these two because our dogs didn't seem to care we were gone! Sharon sent us so many awesome photo updates of our dogs just running, playing, resting, and I was always so exited to get a new photo notification. We will definitely be booking them for any of our future trips!
Sharon and Ryan were AMAZINGLY wonderful from the initial meet & greet to the overnight and day care of my dog! They sent photos & videos showing their authentic care and joy for my dog. Perhaps the most telling is my dog ran back to say good bye to them and slowly got into the car. He was in no hurry to leave their kindness and care!
About Sharon & Ryan T.
Communication
Skills
Information Sharon & Ryan T. would like to know about your pet
What is your dog’s normal daily routine? What are your dog's likes and dislikes? Does your dog have any health concerns? Special needs? Allergies? Does your dog have any behavioral challenges (resource guarding, separation anxiety, potty issues, nipping/biting etc.)? Is your dog able to socialize well with other dogs? Has he/she ever been in an altercation with another dog? Is your dog leash-trained? Is your dog crate trained? Does he/she need to be crated if I leave the house? At night? Can your dog travel with me in my car if I need to run an errand? Do you have emergency contacts for your dog listed on file at your veterinarian's office? Do you have an emergency plan on file for your dog?
A typical day
While your dog is boarding with me he/she can run around and play in our dog-fenced yard (under supervision). We can also play fetch, play with his/her favorite toys, play hide and seek, take long naps, work on obedience skills, you tell me! I am also always happy to schedule 1-2 leash walks (30 mins to 1 hour each) per day in our neighborhood (rural residential), as I know the area and neighborhood dogs well. I will NOT take your dogs to a dog park.
