I work at home watching dogs.
Pet care experience
I am a self employed work from home mom. We have always had a home full of dogs, cats, and other kinds of pets. I've spent many a childhood summer at our family farm where we had horses, cows, and other livestock. Our dog friendly home is set up to accommodate multiple dogs with individual needs. We have a large fenced yard where dogs have access to run and play. There's even a seasonal doggy door so dogs can get as much outside time as they want. We offer a picture window to lounge in the sun or keep an eye on the neighborhood. There are plenty of toys to entertain the dogs and multiple beds for napping. We are part of a dog foster group and we usually have a dog or two here that need good homes. We associate with several local vets and have access to many resources for dog care and behavioral specialists. Our goal is to ensure each dog in our care is as healthy and happy as possible. Our personal dogs are social butterflies and love meeting new friends. Kokomo and Luna are great hosts and help new foster and guest dogs learn the house rules. The girls even help train other dogs to use the doggy door. My husband and I love spoiling our four legged kids. You can rest assured while you're away that your furry kids are in good hands. You can even check out our FB page 'Koko's Dog House' to see your pup in action. We look forward to meeting you and your pet!

Our dog had the best time! They posted pics and videos on Facebook to let us know our baby was in good hands. These people love dogs. And they will screen your day as much as you’re screening them! We will be using them again for sure!
Shawn was so great with making sure our two dogs were comfortable in her home with her two dogs and the other dogs in her care. She also sent us pictures during their stay and kept us updated on how they were doing. We will definitely use her again! She has a nice big yard for the dogs to run around in and it was very helpful that we didn't have to bring our kennels and dog bowls. Even though our dogs had no medical issues when we first did the meet and greet, she still asked us again if there were any changes, medications or updates to be aware of when we dropped them off. Super conscientious and we could tell our pups had a great time. They came home exhausted from all the play time!
Great stay! AK will be back!
River and Aspen had a great time with Shawn and Roland. They not only love dogs, but KNOW dogs... how to manage them in groups, introductions, all the little things that make their day fun and puts our minds at ease leaving the girls with them. Already have their next stay booked and plan for more!
