We have a 2 year old toddler son and a newborn so we must know that your dog is OK with children. Our preference is to care for smaller or medium sized dogs vs. larger dogs.

Dog Loving Family!

Pet care experience

My husband and I are both grew up with dogs, and we counted down the days until we could have our own. We have two dachshunds that love all dogs and people. We live on 1.25 acres in Midlothian / Robious Rd corridor with a fully fenced in backyard and plenty of room for exercise and play. We'd love to help your pooch be as comfortable as possible while you're away, or walk/drop-in during the day for some visits! We are comfortable working with dogs of all ages and sizes and are available for meet and greets to introduce ourselves and our dogs Rocky & Piper to you and your dog. We both work from home, which allows for a very flexible schedule and am happy to accommodate any special needs or requests (feeding, bathing, bathroom, walking, training, etc.). Please reach out to us with any questions, thanks so much!

Taryn and family treat our dog like their own. We feel very comfortable leaving Thunder with Taryn. This is a great place for our dog.

Mini gives Taryn’s family eleven paws out of ten. They love her and treat her like their own and it is terrific. Thanks for another great stay!

Yeti is always eager to stay with Taryn’s family. He is tuckered out when he gets home.
