Good to Know

We intentionally keep our guest list small to provide a quieter, more personalized experience. Most often, your dog will be our only guest! We're happy to welcome siblings from the same family and, on occasion, may accommodate dogs from different households. When considering overlapping stays, we carefully evaluate each dog's temperament, needs, and compatibility.

One of the benefits of George's House is the flexibility of our schedules. Brittany owns a private therapy practice, and Kevin works in real estate, allowing us to thoughtfully coordinate our days around the dogs staying with us. We'll discuss your dog's needs, including how they manage time alone, before confirming their stay.

We want your dog to feel as comfortable and at home as possible! Before their stay, we'll learn about their usual sleeping arrangements and nighttime routines so we can create a familiar, cozy environment. We encourage families to bring their dog's favorite bed or blanket for a little extra comfort.

We have firsthand experience caring for a dog with separation anxiety and ongoing health challenges. Our years with George taught us the importance of patience, flexibility, and understanding each dog's individual needs. We're happy to discuss your dog's specific requirements to determine whether George's House would be a comfortable and appropriate fit.

Absolutely! We understand how important it is to feel comfortable with the people caring for your dog. We'd be happy to arrange a meet-and-greet so we can get to know you and your dog, discuss their needs and routines, and help determine whether George's House is the right fit.

Your dog's safety and well-being are always our priorities. We take the time to understand each guest's temperament, routines, and any special considerations before their stay. We also carefully consider compatibility when accommodating dogs from different households and tailor our approach to help each guest feel safe and comfortable.

our dog's health and safety are incredibly important to us. Before their stay, we'll collect important information about their health, medications, veterinarian, and emergency contacts. Should a medical concern arise, we'll contact you promptly and coordinate appropriate veterinary care as needed.

Of course! We know how much peace of mind comes from knowing your dog is happy and well cared for. We'll share photos and updates during their stay so you can see how they're settling in and enjoying their time at George's House.

We provide at least three walks per day, with additional walks as needed. We tailor the length, pace, and frequency of walks to your dog's age, energy level, physical abilities, and usual routine.

Of course! We do our best to keep mealtimes as familiar and consistent as possible. Simply provide your dog's usual food and feeding instructions, and we'll follow their regular schedule, including any special preparation needs.

Absolutely! In addition to daily walks, your dog will have opportunities to enjoy our backyard throughout the day. Whether they love playing fetch, exploring, or simply relaxing in the fresh air, we'll tailor their outdoor time to their preferences and needs.

A little George's House tradition! Each evening, we offer our overnight guests a complimentary homemade doggie ice cream. We'll share the ingredients with you in advance and only serve it with your permission, taking any dietary restrictions or sensitivities into consideration.

Lots! We intentionally keep our guest list small so we can provide plenty of personalized attention and companionship. Whether your dog loves cuddling on the couch, playing together, or simply having someone nearby, we'll make sure they feel comfortable, cared for, and loved.

Yes! We love sending our guests home with a little something special. Each dog receives a complimentary toy, thoughtfully selected with their preferences and safety in mind. It's our small way of saying thank you for staying at George's House!
