Large fenced yard. Dogs are my BFF

Pet care experience

We ( my sister & I ) have been fostering rescued dogs for +10 years. Dogs are part of our life and are treated like our fur babies. Each dog that we have fostered has touched our hearts. At home, we have a sweet and friendly Maltipoo girl. She is super playful and energetic. Your dog will be showered with love and lots of belly rubs while visiting. We will take them on plenty of walks or to the dog park. Or they can always run around in the fenced yard. My teen son can also take your fur baby on a run or a long walk if they are up for it. The neighborhood is great for nice strolls and walks. My dog is crate trained. For overnight stays, if your dog is crate trained feel free to bring it along. We have plenty of space in the house.

Shirley's sister took care my old and stubborn dog very well. She doesn't force him to walk long, she read the dog's needs. My dog is healthy and happy to see her everyday. She communicated well with me also, sent me not only pictures, but also a detailed description about Milo's behavior and status.

Another great experience with Shirley and her sister. Love the quick communication, regular picture/text updates, and that they remember the little things about our fur babies!

Shirley was absolutely wonderful with our two dogs, Pepper and Gaia! She provided daily updates and photos, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. One of our dogs is usually pretty skittish around new people, but Shirley was able to win her over quickly—a true testament to her gentle and caring approach. You can tell she’s very thoughtful and attentive from the questions she asked before and during her stay, and from the detailed updates she shared. We felt our dogs were truly in great hands and cared for like family. Highly recommend Shirley!
