Pet care experience

I’ve been taking care of dogs since I was a kid. I’ve taken training classes with my own family dogs and can continue to work with your dog if needed while in my home. Throughout my adulthood I’ve had 2 GSP’s and I currently have a 5 yr old GSP and a 5yr Doberman. To say I’m good with active dogs would be an understatement. I have a 1 acre yard where our dog has full access with the utilization of an inground/invisible fence. I have two children as well as my husband at home who love dogs as well. We love to take walks and play fetch in the backyard.

This was the first time we left our dog with Stephanie and Matthew and it was for a 5-night stay, and we couldn't have asked for a better experience. Because we were away, we were naturally a bit nervous, but they made us feel completely at ease. From the very beginning, the environment was incredibly warm, welcoming, clean and spacious, giving our dog plenty of room to feel right at home. It was clear from the daily updates that Ollie was receiving top-notch care and exercise every single day. We loved getting the pictures and comments daily—it truly brightened our trip and showed us just how well cared for and happy our dog was. We will absolutely be booking again. Thank you for treating Ollie like family!

Stephanie, Matt & their boys are amazing. Jake was very happy their while we were in the Spain & Italy for 18 days. They made him feel at home. I don't think he wanted to leave but did. Was Lost for a couple of days without the boys and dogs to play with. Thank you all so much. Highly recommend them to take great care of our Jake!

Our dog Ringo was taken care of so well. They spoiled him like we do. So nice to leave him with a loving family instead of a cold kennel. He'll be back again someday.

Stephanie and Matthew were incredible with my dog, Jet! They were extremely reliable, sent me sweet updates, and Jed was calm and happy when I got back. I’d trust them with Jet anytime and highly recommend them to anyone looking for loving dog care!
