“Our dog had a seizure in his kennel before Nicole arrived for her visit. Nicole immediately let us know and did a great job of cleaning up. She was able to extend her stay to make sure our dog was OK before she left. This was very comforting to our dog and ourselves.”
About: We've been taking care of select dogs for many years for friends and family, knowing that dog owners tend to worry about their pets when they're away and want someone who understands that and will care for their pets as they would. we've always had dogs until recently, I also photograph dogs for fun. We often board a dog who has seizures and requires medication and have watched other unusual dogs including puppies and dogs still healing from surgery. For many years we volunteered at the local humane society. We have a fenced in yard that our late beagle mix of 18 years regularly tried to escape and repeatedly failed. Dogs in our home are considered guests and are treated as such. I currently work from home, so letting dogs out regularly and giving regular attention is no problem at all. I'm done with work in the afternoon which leaves me plenty of time to get dogs out for exercise and socializing. Dorothy, my wife, also has plenty of daytime open for play time and extra loving. I work from home and regularly take play breaks, Dorothy, my wife is home most days and offers lots of love. We try to get to the dog park now and then on the weekends. We have a modest fenced in back yard with a wooded lot behind us, I walk dogs regularly in several areas. We keep also keep a toybox full of dog toys :-)
“Lindsey was awesome once again! Our dog Ellie was being a little shy/timid this time but Lindsey sent us updates along the way and seemed to have won Ellie over by the end of the stay.”
“Katie is absolutely amazing! We have never used a pet sitter before and were nervous to find someone that we could trust. We could not have hoped for a more thoughtful, considerate, loving person to watch our cat, Jellyfish. She cared for her so well we were nervous Jelly would want to leave us for her. Lol! We are already planning to work with her again. She is worth every penny!”
