Dog savvy and experienced!

Pet care experience

I know it must be hard taking a gamble on someone you may not know caring for your dog that means a lot to you. With us, I promise your dog will be well cared for from a safety aspect to also making sure your dog is either mentally or physically exercised. And with plenty of pictures and videos! The profile is under my name, Tim, but I do this 50/50 with my wife, Jessica. While I am working from home, she too has a flexible schedule which means we have plenty of time to devote to your dog! A little about us: Tim: I started working at a doggy daycare/boarding/training center back in 2012 which has shaped my love and passion for all things dog. I am currently in the process of starting my own business (work in progress) so I can provide a bigger place to accept more boarding dogs, daycare, and take on training clients. I also do multiple dog sports but doing schutzhund with my Malinois is my personal favorite. Jessica: I too, started working at the same doggy daycare/boarding/training facility as Tim. I then shifted slightly and went into veterinary medicine and worked as a veterinary assistant for many years. I have recently decided to get back into my first love which is doggy daycare and boarding. I also enjoy dog sports, dock dive is one of my personal favorites, and fostering dogs and helping them find their forever home. As for our home, it is on the smaller side but we do have a fairly large fenced in yard. We have a stable pack of personal dogs that help assist us in fun play time to tire your pup. We also enjoy walks and exploring new hiking trails which is another option to tire your pup. We also have a 2 year old daughter, who has been shaped to be very respectful of other dogs. We have also fostered dogs who were a little unsure of her which we were able to adjust and plan day to day activities accordingly (whether that be keeping them separate or close monitoring). We also have 2 cats in the home but they do have a closed off area that they are allowed to escape to if they ever feel “threatened” by a dog. I work from home currently. And my wife is also home and has a very flexible schedule to make sure dogs are pottied and exercised daily. I have a fenced in yard, and I have a stable dog pack of my own. The dogs can mingle and play to burn some energy. If needed or preferred the dogs can also be crated and let out separately and exercised separately.

Tim and his wife did very well with our puppy! I appreciate upon arrival Tim met us outside and slowly transitioned Moose with the other dogs. He communicated well and asked questions where necessary. So far I’ve used this app 3 times and Moose really enjoyed his time there. Would definitely recommend.
