Doggie retreat with big back yard

Pet care experience

I lost my boxer last year to cancer and miss having a dog around. I decided to open my home to dog sitting and walking to fulfill my human need for a canine. I would love to snuggle and play with your dog. I have a big back yard, dog friendly for fetch, frisbee, hide and seek or other games. I will hike and run with your dog in the neighborhood or local parks. If your dog likes to swim, we can go to the creek or lake. I am available some weekdays and most weekends. Your dog will be the only pet, full on attention. I hope you choose me to meet your fur baby. I will provide loving care with fun and exercise.

Sylvia took great care of my dog. She sent me daily updates and pictures. It was so nice knowing my dog was healthy and happy while I was on vacation!

Where do we begin? We needed to go out of town and had a dog with eating issues that were not yet diagnosed. We were, needless to say, apprehensive to leave Chewy. Sylvia took on the daunting task of caring for him. She was so sensitive and gave us feedback as to Chewy's progress. We are eternally grateful for the amazing care she gave to Chewy under not the best of circumstances!!!!

Xena had a great stay with Sylvia and we had no worries about her being well taken care of. She had Sylvia all to herself plus walks, a backyard, and was even allowed to crash on the couch. Sylvia stayed in touch with us via texts and pics to let us know how Xena's stay was going.

Sophie stayed with Sylvia almost 4 weeks while we were on vacation. She is not an easy dog and I'm so glad we found Sylvia who truly treats my girl like her own. It's such a great feeling to know that Sophie is in loving hands when she can't be with me. ♥♥♥
