“Great set up for the dogs! We loved getting pictures of our happy pups during their stay. They had so much room to run and play. Great communication. Definitely recommend.”
“These two are phenomenal. Daily and sometimes twice a day updates (pics). Everyone of them my fluff ball was happy. Human interaction was great as well. Even got a gift bag with treats to take home. Thank you guys!!!”
“Honey was amazing! She was not only attentive to my puppy’s needs but also sent regular updates keeping me in the loop with how everything was going. It was very reassuring to receive updates and photos showing just how happy and well-cared for my puppy was. She also takes photos as a hobby so we got some really nice photos of our puppy! It’s clear that she genuinely loves animals and goes above and beyond. Highly recommend!”
“Natalie and her husband were very accommodating to our little baby! Their babygirl was the perfect match for ours! 10/10 recommend for anyone needing a Dogsitter. I felt at ease knowing they had our babygirl in their care❤️”
“My babies loved their staycation! Christian kept me updated daily with multiple pictures and I could tell they were happy and well cared for. It had been 2 years since we took a vacation without them and were a little apprehensive, but after meeting with Christian I was sure it would work and it did. They really enjoyed playing with Khaleesi her dog. I can't wait now for next vacation.”

About: My husband and I have cared for dogs our whole lives. We have experience taking care of dogs of all sizes and ages. We also have experience with leash training, teaching commands, and crate training. Between Chad and I, there will almost always be someone at house watching your dog. Our fully fenced in yard allows us to let your dog run around and play at anytime. We typically feed all of our animals 2x a day, but can feed your’s on a different schedule if needed. All dogs are taken out every 4 hours during the day. At night, the last potty break is around midnight, and the first one around 7am. Since we have 4 dogs of our own, we are used to building our time around them. If we are ever gone from the house, we put the dogs in their crates for their safety and comfort. As mentioned above, we have a fully fenced in lot with ample space for dogs to run around and enjoy. We love dogs and any dog that we care for will be treated as if it is our own. We love snuggling with them in bed, throwing the ball outside, and taking them on walks. Our goal is to make your dog feel as comfortable and as at home as possible. Due to our schedules, one of us is always home unless we run an errand together, so your dog will always be in great company. We have 4 dogs: 1 fixed female dachshund 4yo, 1 fixed male dachshund 8yo, 1 intact male bloodhound 8yo, 1 intact male hound mix 1yo. All of our dogs are up to date on shots and have ample experience playing with other dogs. The dachshund’s tend to do their own thing, and the hounds love to spend as much time as they can outside. None of our dog’s are aggressive, but we are prepared to separate any of our dogs from the main living space, if ever needed. We also have an indoor/outdoor cat who is up to date on shots, he usually stays in our room, closed off from everyone else when inside. We have a 1.5 year old son who adores all animals and will love your dog. We take precautions to make sure he is never getting into a dog’s space and disturbing their space. Our son’s room is gated off from all animals. We have a fenced off area in the back of our property with chickens.
“We felt very comfortable leaving our two babies with Mary and her husband. They were part of her family for two weeks, socialized and played well with her pups and visitors. They were part daily pictures gave us good peace of mind that they were well cared for.”
