Large family to love your pet!

Pet care experience

We have a large house and yard with lots of space for your dog to roam and explore. There is a beautiful wooded trail behind our house where we would love your dog to join us on walks. We have cared for many dogs in our neighborhood and always treat them as a member of the family. We have 2 kids that live at home ages 16 that love to walk, love and care for your pet - they will never be lonely. We are unable to own pets due to financial reasons - so your pet will get 100% of our love and attention. I send daily pics and updates unless asked not to, so you can always know how your pet is doing. Please note: I will watch 2 dogs from 1 owner. 10% discount for any stay over 7 days. 25% discount for any stay over 14 days days. 50% discount for any stay over 30 days. There is a two night minimum stay.

Thank you so much for taking such great care of our timid dog. This was the first time that he spent away from home

Information Valerie M. would like to know about your pet

Any breed, however the dog must be house trained. If there is anything special about your pet, please let us know. Drop off vet information in case of an emergency. Of course I will always contact owner first if there is any issue.

A typical day

We would bring the dog with us wherever we are allowed to bring pets - whether it be outside while we are washing the cars, a car ride to visit a friend, a soccer game, or wherever we may be. My husband and I love to take long walks together around our neighborhood or on the trail behind out house.
