9. Dante & Quincy J.
About: We have been fur parents to multiple fur babies both individually and together. I am currently a bather, and for the past two years I have bathed (and nails) dogs off all sizes and ages. We treat each dog like our own, creating an environment that is warm and inviting for them to stay, play, and feel comfortable. While I do work during the week, my partner works from home, so we work together to make sure that the pets are cared for around the clock. Usually I do mornings before work, and he does during the day and evening while I work, and then we work together during the night. We have a fully fenced in yard for the safety of the pets, as well as multiple sized crates to fit any size dog. . We also have 2 friendly pets of our own. Multiple dogs have visited and stayed in our home, and our dogs get along great with others. For dogs who are not as social, we will provide individual play for them as well.
