Pet care experience
DROP-OFF/PICK-UP TIMES: 7:30-9:30 11AM-12:30 and 4PM-6Pm Over the years I have loved and raised many dogs purebred and mixed breeds. I spent more than 30 years boarding and training Hunter and Jumper show horses on a national level, dogs came with us to the horse shows. My horse customers owned dogs as well and would bring them to the horse shows, dog care, and safety became a natural extension of my business. When I retired from the horse business and moved to Florida I thought about opening a bed and breakfast, but my home and background are far better suited to dog care, I don't cook people food. I have rarely met a dog I did not like, small medium or large, from Miniature dachshunds, Corgis to Labradors, Shepherds and mixed breeds. The dogs that are here under my care are kept on their normal schedule as closely as possible. I feed the dogs twice a day and I am here with them on a full-time basis. My yard is fully fenced my dog is friendly with all dogs and a great play pal when the dogs are outside I am outside with them
Reviews
I had a last minute cancellation of previous pet sitter and Vickie H agreed to take my two doxies for an overnight stay. It was an easy drop off , an easy pick up and my girls seemed to enjoy their stay. Thanks for everything... next time I am in a pinch I will definitely use her again.
I know Ziggy had a great time with Vickie because when we got home and he passed out immediately! Thank you so much :)
Bruce Wayne had a great time staying with Vickie H. Picked up a very happy dog after my trip.
First time visit with Vickie, but believe Carmella may have enjoyed her vacation with a fellow pet lover. Vickie provided excellent communication and pushed above the call due to flight delay. I appreciate her service.

Safety, trust & environment
I have several dog beds and locations within my home where the dogs make themselves comfortable. I also have crates as I found that some dogs like their crates and want to be in them.

I am here full time and the dogs are my priority. I rarely leave the property and the dogs are never left alone for more than an hour.
