Retriever's Retreat

My husband and I have had pets our whole lives. We love dogs. We only watch Retrievers in our home (Golden and Labradors). We live in north central Austin close to a great dog park. Your dog will be treated like one of our own pets. Spoiled to the core.

Poppy loved her stay with her Golden friends at Todd & Stephanie’s! His updates made us smile and happy to know she was well cared for. Will definitely use them again!

I work part-time and my husband does volunteer work but someone is home almost all of the time. Our day begins with a morning walk and the evening includes a trip to the nearby dog park. We are also available to come to your house to walk your pets or take care of them in your home.
