Pet care experience

Trusted neighborhood dog sitter!

We've been watching dogs for friends and neighbors for years. Our whole family really loves dogs, including our 8 year old son who has grown up understanding how to love and respect dogs. We love taking dogs for walks, as much as 3 times a day, regardless of weather. With all the dogs we've watched for neighbors and friends, we've gotten very skilled at walking multiple dogs at once. For those furry friends who prefer a leisurely pace, we have a nice sized, fenced in backyard as well. We're happy to provide your fur-baby a home away from home in ours :-). To note, after our beloved bichon of 14 years passed away this summer, we decided to bring home a new puppy to our family. He's still learning to socialize but so far he's been cautiously curious. We fully intend to continue to socialize him regularly.

We so appreciate Suzie and Ben! They took great care of Lucy and even braved the foul weather to make sure our pets and home were safe. Thank you.

We could not be more pleased with our experience. Suzanne and Benjamin were great. Timely communication, thoughtful care and clearly a love for animals. When our flight was delayed they were flexible and were able to adjust their schedule to help us out. Thank you!

This is the second time our dog stayed with Sue and Ben and we had another great experience. They provided adorable photos and updates throughout the stay. And they were flexible with drop off and pick up time. So nice to have someone we trust to watch our dog!

We have a fenced in yard and keep close eyes on pups in our home. Happy to accommodate pups who are more comfortable with crate training.

I myself have allergies, so we do prefer hypo-allergenic breeds. Were the visit shorter, we can non-hypoallergenic dogs. We also try and get an idea of every dog's routine before we watch them, to try and ease them into our house and schedule as best as possible.
