Pet care experience

Furry Friends Welcome Here

While it can be hard to leave your furry loved ones behind, we would love to invite your dog or puppy into our home and help them feel comfortable while you are away. There is lots of fun to be had in our fenced back yard with our now 7 month old Rottweiler, who loves to socialize with people and dogs alike. Lots of love and cuddles are definitely part of the deal. We will follow your rules, feeding schedule, and medication. If your dog is allowed on the furniture at your house, they will be here also. If no, that's ok too. We will make it a top priority to care for your pet as if they were a member of our family. We are willing and able to care for your special needs dog or puppy. Our experience is with mostly large dogs, like Dobermans and Mastiffs, but also care for our GSP grand dog on occasion. We have had dogs for 40 years as a couple. We do have 4 cats. It is possible to keep your dog and our cat's separated, if they are not cat friendly.

10/10 - our pup has stayed with Steve and Diane multiple times now and loves it! We love dropping him off here because we are so confident they will love him up. He comes back ready to sleep for the rest of the week! If you have a pup that likes to play, their pups will wear yours out! Thanks again guys!

Steven & Diane are, without fail, amazing dog people. They know Alice so well and always take excellent care of her. Priceless!

Steven & Diane treat Alice like family. They didn’t blink and I when I needed to board her just a few days after having her sutures removed and long surgical recovery. They gave her all the attention she needed and she was back to her normal self within a few days! So grateful!

Diane & Steve took such great care of our two dogs while we were away. We were updated daily with photos and messages. After almost two weeks with them, we came home to two relaxed, happy dogs. We would absolutely book with them again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for someone trustworthy to care for their pets!
