I’ve cared for dogs for over 15 years — including my own pup, Blair — and I treat every dog like family. Whether it’s feeding, giving meds, or just some extra playtime and belly rubs, I’m all about personalized care. I offer safe, scenic walks around Lake Placid and always keep you updated with lots of photos. I also have a fenced yard for supervised playtime and flexible availability for last-minute bookings or weekend trips. Let’s give your pet a happy, stress-free experience while you’re away!

Wayne took great care of Dakota! His dog is very sweet and got along great with my dog. He sent a lot of pictures to keep me updated while I was away and was very good at communicating. My dog enjoyed her own vacation at his house. Will definitely be booking with him for my next trip

April 23 - 23, 2026 Once again, Wayne's dog sitting was on point!! I received daily updates via pictures of how my boy, Bear, was doing. Like I said before, I would highly recommend Wayne as a perfect dog sitter. Wayne has officially become my go-to dog sitter. Thanks again.

We left our dog Sammy with Wayne for 5 days for the second time and will keep using Wayne. We got pictures every day. Sammy got plenty of walks and treats and most of all love. Thank you Wayne Sammy will be back.

Sophie loves to stay with Wayne, Blair and Family. They are so loving and kind to her. I receive numerous pictures and updates daily. If you need someone to trust your fur baby with. I highly recommend using Wayne. Sophie has stayed with him numerous times and she is always happy and wagging her tail when we drop her off. Thanks for taking great care of our sweet Sophie😘

Pets

A typical day

I like to get up early and first thing is feeding and then a long morning walk and belly rubs. Pups normally love to explore the back yard and lounge outside. I have balls and toys to play with too. After they have an afternoon walk they will get an afternoon yogurt treat or lick pad. Until the evening, the rest of the day is spent roaming the house, going in and outside or napping. Dinner is normally followed by an evening walk or visit to the dog park. Before retiring we will spent some time watching tv on the couch.
