Dogs In My Home

unknown

Besides the fact that we have known the owners for years, this service is really a wonderful niche business. Our Corgi, Gracie, has stayed here a few times and I often wonder if she wants to come home.  :)   When I drop her off and remove her leash, she is off to play with her fellow canines. I know she is loved as she is at home. There are no crates. She seems to love running in the big fenced yard and she always makes a new "buddy" or two during her stay.   Leave your anxiety about leaving your pet behind...Dogs in My Home is a great place to care for your dog!

   I recently moved to the area and was nervous to change around all of the doctors and providers for my dog since I travel frequently. I was pleasantly surprised with Laura's flexibility and availability to evaluate my dog at a time convenient for my husband and I and then to take my dog for a week so soon after I moved here. He was not only happy and healthy when I picked him up but he seemed really well-exercised -he's a husky so that's always a plus for me. I definitely recommend Laura and Dogs in my Home and plan on using them going forward!

Dogs in my Home is a wonderful loving provider of dog boarding services. We have been taking our dogs there every time we have needed boarding services over the past several years. While on vacation, we know that our dogs are being well cared for, loved and having fun. The owners are super easy to deal with, and always accommodating to your desired drop off and pick up times.

We used to feel guilty when we left our dogs at a kennel, where they were confined to a pen or small run. But this is never the case at Dogs in My Home, and in fact, our bill Is often less than what we paid at the kennel, because we can pick up on Sunday to avoid another night's charge, and we don't have to pay any extra for things like 2x per day feedings or recess. We always feel as if our dogs are getting to enjoy a vacation too. Laura even posts pictures of the dogs on Facebook, so that you can log in and see what new friends they are meeting and what fun they are having while you are away.

We have a few short trips a year for work, and also a few longer trips of 2 weeks+ when we visit my husband's family in Australia. Finding the right place for our babies to stay while we are gone makes all the difference in us being able to travel worry-free. We did not want our babies to be in cages, and truly doubted we would find anywhere that would give them all the love and attention we do at home. That is until a fellow dog-lover told us about Laura and Jeff!

Knowing they do a temperament evaluation with all of the dogs and are willing to turn away those who aren't the right "fit" gives us all the peace of mind we'd ever need to know our babies will be in good hands and will enjoy themselves interacting with "like-minded" non-aggressive happy pups while we're gone. Our once shy and timid puppy first stayed with them when she was only about 6 months old, and I honestly think her time with Laura and Jeff and all the other wonderful dogs made all the difference in her personality.

From quirky food requirements to medications to schedule changes, nothing is ever a problem for Laura. She has been a true lifesaver for us, even making room for us last minute so that we would be able to attend a family member's funeral out of town. We will be forever grateful, but for them it's just what you do.

And at the end of the day, all the writing I could do here won't do Laura and Jeff justice. The dogs really speak for themselves. Every time we get out of the car at their place, they are beyond excited to get in the front door...and for us to leave so they can get to the business of playing! And when we pick them up, of course they are happy to see us, but they also always run back over to Laura for some pets before we leave, telling her "thanks" in their own special way. What more could we ask for?

We have used Dogs in Our Home several times over the passed few years. The dogs have a huge, fenced back yard with run and play with all the other dogs. The dogs are treated like extended family and get treats and attention while lounging on couches and dog beds in the family room. The owners are always accommodating when it comes to drop off and pick up times. No extra charges for play time, treats or medicine. I like catching an occasional picture of my dog having fun while I'm away when the owner posts updates on her Facebook page. Its a stress free environment for your pet to stay.

Laura and Jeff at dogs in my home are amazingly caring people especially with my "fur baby." They provide such a unique service that is invaluable to me! I work 12 hour shifts so to crate my dog for that long would just be almost in humane, because of what they provide I'm able to be a pet owner and not have a crazy, hyper dog when I get home because he is out all day playing with them and all the other dogs staying! Laura wakes up bright and early for me to drop Bentley off and always has a smile on her face. Along with this, she'll post pictures to her Facebook page so you can see your dog playing and interacting with all the others, which is great to see, especially if your dog is there for an extended stay while your on vacation. You can tell how much passion they have for these dogs and I'm so happy I'm able to have them to take care of Bentley when I'm at work or out of town!
