Pet care experience
Your dog will find our home quite comfortable, and will have the run of our backyard, kitchen and living room along with our English Springer spaniel when we are at home, which is most of the time. Our backyard is enclosed with a 5 foot high chain link fence. When no one is home, we'll secure your dog in in our kitchen for safety, and of course will feed and water 2 – 3 times per day. About this sitter: Recently retired couple with single family home, large, fenced in back yard, many years as dog owners. We were approved for adoption of English Springer Spaniels by a national rescue network specializing in that breed. Long ago, Vince worked part time at Park Pet Hospital in St Louis Park, MN for two years. Why I love dog sitting Vince worked during two of his college years at Park Pet Hospital in St. Louis Park - really got to know the breeds and dogs during that time. Just a few months after we were married, 38 years ago, we bought our first dog, and have not been without canine companionship for more than a few months since then. About my yard Please see the attached photo. Our backyard is 100 feet long and 50 feet deep and completely fenced in by a 5 foot high chain-link fence on three sides and a 6 foot high fence in the rear where the neighbors's yard borders ours.
Reviews
Another amazing stay with this wonderful couple! Finn loves it here - we feel very lucky to have found them!
Vince and Sandy did a great job taking care of Sarah! They have a cozy home and were home most of the time. The fenced in yard and having other dogs to play with was great! Vince sent me several videos during our 10 day stay. Sarah was eating, sleeping and playing while we were gone. We would use them again!
Great communication and Amos always seems to enjoy the backyard and friends!!
We give the warmest recommendations to Vince and Sandy. They are the sweetest and kindest people, and you can clearly feel their great affection for dogs. Our dog Karla loved her stay with them for 10 days and came home happy and yet very tired. We will always use them as our dog sitter, and have signed up for the next holiday.
