“John knew that Sadie liked to fetch tennis balls thrown with a Chuck-it, so he did that for her. Twice! In very cold weather & it hurt his shoulder. I really like that he only takes 1 dog family at a time. He treats my dog like his dog. Has a wonderful big fenced yard, during warmer weather has dog doors so they can go in & out at will. His dog Peaches is very sweet.”
“The first time ever my dog didn’t wanna leave sitters house, Stormy loved it there! Highly recommend, huge fenced in back yard, very kind and courteous, and you can tell Victoria is a dog lover herself.”
“I was initially worried about the other dogs with my crippled older dog... but that ended up not being a problem at all! Barb is very sweet, will use again for my loved one”
“Jacqueline and Uriel sent me photos and videos and kept me updated though out the day. When I picked up Queenie she was so happy and relaxed. You can tell she had an amazing time and was comfortable in Jacqueline and Uriel’s care. When we were leaving she was going back to them for pets and affection. I will definitely book with Jacqueline and Uriel in the future. Thank you so much! 🙏🏽🤗”
About: It all started when I was 5 and my sister and I convinced our animal loving parents to add to our family, we got a golden retriever puppy and a kitten in the same year. I have never lived a day without a pet in 35 years! I have open availability. I have 2 smaller dogs and a parrot. I live in a nice, quiet neighborhood perfect for walking furry friends. Ricky and Lucy (cavapoos) love a good slumber party :) I do not have a fenced in yard. My pups know the perimeters. I do take leashed potty breaks and walks with pup visitors. I am familiar with "runners" and an capable of making sure that doesn't happen!
“June came to our rescue as we had an emergency and needed her last minute and saved us with watching pablo and her new fur friend Veloui! Thank you so much! SHE IS THE BEST!!!”
“This was the first time we've ever taken our puppy to Doggy Day Care and we were very nervous to say the least. Ben was amazing. From the meet and greet to the first morning we dropped her off, he put us at ease. He sent pictures and gave updates throughout the day. He made this whole experience great for us and for Charlie. Charlie was so worn out after the first day, that she (and us) finally slept through the whole night that night 😁We'll definitely bring Charlie back!!”
