Safety, trust & environment

I welcome ur dog in the comfort they need to keep anxiety away while their owners are enjoying a good vacation! While my bulldogs are crate trained I do not require your pup to be crated but will continue crate training if that’s what your request are. We never leave dogs out roaming unsupervised and I have a seperate space for each dog including “the dog room”. Safety is my #1 priority!

Information Stacey D. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know what makes your pup happy- and anything I should be aware of so I can be sure ur pup is safe in my place. I specialize in bulldog and short snout dog care as all I have owned is bulldogs- and I know special requirements they take!

A typical day

My younger daughter we call the dog whisperer why because she hasn’t found a dog yet that she can’t make “sit like a pretty girl/guy”. We also mirror the routine that fits your dog…

Pet care experience

We are back! Hello and thank you for consider the Dorsey family to take care of your pet while you enjoy a vacay! i have two girls who help me with caring for your animal while you are away, so your pet will get plenty of loving. In addition to my girls, I also am the face behind Stacey D’s Bulldogs. So I have some bulldogs that reside here in my home along with a litter of pups from time to time. So I am experienced in all bulldog or short snout breeds and their needs. We also specialize in those new pups that are still potty training and learning the ropes!

Stacey and her family have done a wonderful job watching my pug puppy, Scout. I’ve left him at Stacey’s several times, and she always makes sure that he doesn’t overheat and that he’s cared for exceptionally well. Stacey is a “dog person”, and I am confident in her ability to look after my pup. Scout always comes home happy and tired. I really appreciate the level of care Stacey provides, and I will continue to use her for Scout in the future.

Stacey and Jeryn took such great care of Tuna! Tuna really bonded with Jeryn especially. She had some tummy issues while she was staying with them and Stacey took excellent care of her and was so good about communicating with us. We got regular text and photo updates. We would definitely have Tuna stay with them again.
