Doggie Love and Backyard Fun!

Pet care experience

We are a dog-loving family with many years of doggie care/training experience. We fostered and ultimately adopted 2 rescue babies, bonded siblings, Bella & Scout. They are super cute and love to play with other dogs. We also recently included Rugby into our family, They all have full reign of the house as will all other furry friends who come over to play and stay! We have a roomy single family home in a pretty tree-lined neighborhood with a great 100% fenced in backyard which makes for plenty of exercise and fun (take a look at our pics). We would love to host your babies and would treat them with lots of love and affection. We have plenty of training treats for positive reinforcement, lots of cuddles, and plenty of toys to go around. We offer a true family home experience for your little one! **We do require a meet & greet before a stay, so please contact us today!** Discount for additional pet from same family. Additional fee for late pick up. Holiday rates apply (ask for details). Sorry, unable to host puppies or dogs that are not neutered/spayed, or fully housebroken (no wee-wee pads). Apologies, but we do not host pit bulls, pit bull mixes, dobermans, mastiffs, rotweillers, great danes or similar breeds. Other large breeds hosted at our discretion. We especially welcome and have a special place in our hearts for rescue doggies! In the interest of our safety and the safety of the other dogs for whom we care, we will NOT accept any dog that shows dominance, doesn't play nicely with others, is aggressive to humans & other dogs, or will not obey basic commands when given.

I can't recommend Stephanie highly enough. My husband and I don't have kids, so our 5 year old lab is our baby and I'm a little neurotic about how she's taken care of. I worry about her a lot and am super critical of other people when it comes to her b/c she's so important to me. That said, I didn't worry about my pup at all when I was away. Stephanie sent pictures and videos, and was receptive to my two-page list of instructions for my dog, ha ha ... It's tough to leave your dog with a stranger, but having left my dog with her for 7 days, I can say that Stephanie's responsible, kind and caring. It was our first time using her, but definitely won't be our last.

Stephanie and her family did a wonderful job taking care of our dog, Chester, while we were on vacation for 8 days. She sent pictures and videos daily to ease our minds, and did everything possible to make him feel at home. We would entrust Chester's care to her again in the future.

This was Gizmo's first stay, and he LOVED it. He had a great time playing with Stephanie, her family and the other pups! Stephanie sent me pictures, videos and updates several times a day. Gizmo really had a great time. Stephanie has a beautiful yard for the dogs to run around any play in, as well as a beautiful and a very comfortable dog friendly house. I had no worries leaving Gizmo with them, and he will definitely be back! Thanks again for making he stay so fun, and worry free for me.

Stephanie and family were great! They treated our little Bailey as family. They sent so many photos and we could tell how happy she was during her stay! They were extremely flexible about her anxiety being home alone and worked out a schedule that made all of us more comfortable. And when we picked her up-their bond with her was clear! we will definitely be going back to them next time we are go out of town!!
