I am a retired teacher/dog owner

Pet care experience

We have a lifetime of experience of raising and providing for our own pets. I am now retired and have plenty of time to provide a loving space for your pet. We have a fenced in yard with open woods beyond that. I will be more than happy to provide any service in pet care to your loved one we consider our pets family and would love your pet to become a part of our extended family! I do require a meet and greet prior booking therefore a week to ten days notice is preferable for new pups. Repeat customers, this is not required. It is almost impossible to watch a new pup with a day or two notice. During the meet and great, you will sit with us to go over other requirements during the stay, such as vet info and emergency contact info. Please understand that if you choose to bring your pup over while othe boarders are here, I will do my absolute best to keep them separate from your pup but there are times when you may meet other boarding pups. We are home at convenient hours. We care for your pup as if it was our pup while you travel or just need a break We have a fenced in yard and your pet lives in our home while you travel. They can swim as well as long as they are used to a pool

This was the first time leaving our dog with a sitter. He is a large puppy and we wanted to make sure he was not only well cared for but that they could handle him. Steve and Deb took great care of him. They sent photos every day. They wanted to know all they could do to make him happy and comfortable. He seemed to enjoy playing with their dogs. We will definitely use them again.

My 4 year old rescue Oscar is a very nervous pup. He is a mamas boy to the core. Had to leave him in CT to travel to FL for my sisters wedding. Orignally was planning to kennel him until I heard about Rover. Steve had over 100 return customers so we scheduled an interview. His home was comfortable and he allows full access to the dogs. We received pictures of Oscar daily and he made himself right at home lol. As long as Steve has space, next time we travel, Oscar will return.

As an anxious dog mom we looked for a while for the best option. My dog LIVELY to say it nice so we needed a place for him to play and exercise. Steve & Deb were perfect for us! We got pictures all week! I never doubted for a second he wasn’t being taken care of and loved like I would. I think this is best vacation my dog will take. Ha!
