Family Full of Dog Lovers!
When your dog stays with us, they are joining us as a member of our family. I go far above and beyond the call of duty when it comes to welcoming a new dog into our home. In the past, I’ve made food from scratch for dogs with unique dietary needs, and I’ve slept on the floor with a pup who needs a calming presence in order to sleep. I don’t consider these accommodations to be excessive; I approach each dog with the same love, attention, and compassionate presence with which I raised my own children. At the same time, our home is relaxed and laid-back. It’s a place for pups to feel at home, in every sense of the word. We have a wonderful family full of love to share with all of our furry visitors. They adore our guests. As a family, we engage in lots of playtime, and the kids often ask when certain doggy friends are coming back! We have one pup of our own, Ty, a Husky/Lab mix. He incredible with other dogs and understands how to give their new friends space, but he is playful, warm, and welcoming--just like the rest of the family! Our family is highly adaptable to the needs of any dog. We’ve accommodated long-term boarders, with stays up to 6 months long! We’re a goofy, fun-loving family and we love hosting family pups! Our sitting experiences have been thoroughly rewarding and have forged many amazing connections with dogs and their owners! Pet-sitting is a great opportunity for us to put our skills and passions to good use, and we’re lucky to be able to share our love and expertise with other people’s dogs each and every day. We all stay active, whether we’re playing with dogs or pursuing our own hobbies. We enjoy being outside, and therefore our weekends are whiled away in our backyard playing with the pups. We go swimming when it’s warm enough, kick around a soccer ball, throw a Frisbee, or jump on the trampoline. Our home and backyard are very dog-friendly. We have a huge backyard with a fenced-off pool and a green belt behind us. Dogs will enjoy people-watching, and will also have plenty of space to run around, or find a quiet area to take a quick nap. We are looking forward to welcoming your dog into our lives.

We love Shelly! Love the peace of mind knowing our dog is safe and well-cared-for when we are away. Shelly has been our primary sitter for years and there have been zero problems.

A typical day
We’ll take all the time we need to get to know your dog and make sure that they feel completely comfortable with us! We believe that any and every dog can have a successful stay with us, regardless of breed, age, or past experiences. We take safety precautions with our kids, but of course it’s ideal if your dog is comfortable with them, too. Communication is absolutely essential to us, so we will be very thorough in our questions about your dog’s preferences, needs, and any and all concerns you may have. We will do whatever it takes to put your mind at ease and help your dog have the best experience possible. One of our highest priorities is to ensure that your dog’s experience is as similar to what they’re used to as possible, so we’ll adhere to your usual schedule closely with walks, mealtimes, and so on. We can also create plenty of separate space for your pup if he or she fares better away from the other dogs. No matter what issues arise, it’s our deepest wish to make any necessary adjustments as we go--we want to make your experience 100% satisfying! While you’re away, we send a lot of pictures and keep everyone up to date with how things are going. You can see how much we love dogs, both ourselves and our children, when you come and meet us.
