Hello, and thanks for visiting my page. My wife and I have been multiple dog and pet owners for over 15 years, and grew up with animals in our homes as children. We are no stranger to taking care of, and treating animals just as the family they are. We have dogs and cats in our home, and cats, chickens, ducks, and goats outside on the property. We have experience with puppies through senior dogs and love all breeds. We look forward to you reaching out and scheduling your pets stay with us!

They were very good to communicate with. They were very good with my dogs. They sent me photos to let me know how my dogs were doing just super easy to get a hold of and my dogs really enjoyed being there and wasn’t cooped up the whole time and they made sure to watch my dogs carefully and kept them busy so they didn’t get depressed

Shadow always enjoys his time at the farm! He comes home tired and is always well taken care of.

Shaun and Katie were amazing to work with! I received pictures almost daily of my two dogs and they always looked happy. They took them for walks and seemed to treat them as their own. One of my dogs gets anxious and licks her foot. Katie told me she wrapped her foot to help with the anxiety. It put me at ease knowing she was aware of what my dog was doing and took action to help her while I was gone. My flight home was delayed and Shaun and Katie were super understanding about keeping them another night. This was one less thing to stress over and I knew they were in good hands. This is my first time using Rover and I will definitely be having my pups stay with Shaun and Katie again!

Were fantastic with Ollie, send updates and made sure he was comfortable during the first snowstorm of the year! He even came home with being given a bath!

Schedule

I currently feed my own animals before I go to work for the day, my wife has a home office, and is in and out during the day, but is able to be more flexible in taking care of basic letting in and out needs. When I arrive home in the afternoons, another round of animal chores occurs, with time for exercise and play for all.

Safety, trust & environment

We are ready to share our home, 5 acres of underground electric fenced in rural yard for your dog to enjoy on their vacation away from home! A wooded trail for leash walking, multiple areas to explore while here, with opportunities to be socialized with our own pets and children, let out and played with frequently while in our stay. We provide a Boarding Room with open space to play and relax, with 2 crated kennels for your pet(s) to stay. This area also has a fenced in grass area attached off the back and as weather allows will be left open for open access to outside when in the room. This also is an area away from the general living space to make your pet feel calm and safe. As time allows, your pet will have chances to join our family in work and play around the farm and in our home. We try to avoid “kenneling” your dog unless necessary. Bring your own bed, blankets or toys and your pets preferred dog food for the stay. Willing to work with pets that take medication or have special needs, or may need to be crated or not crated for long periods of time.
