About: We are a couple with a golden retriever and chocolate lab that love boarding. We know how stressful it is leaving your fur baby home and we are happy to care for your dog knowing they will never be left alone. We adore our fur babies and have catered our vacation schedule dependent on pet sitters and so we understand the importance of feeling the trust that your fur baby is in good hands and will be the only one looking after at all times so you can be totally stress free. I am in my 50s and will be the primary dog caretaker. I grew up in France with dogs and cats at home and always with pets around with my family and friends. I then worked and travelled many places around the world and now live in Thunder Bay with Yogi, Choco and my wife who is a physician at the hospital and travels for work. My dog motto is a balanced, healthy and happy dog through exercise, discipline and affection. Using dog psychology with calmness and assertiveness. Dogs are my best companions and great teachers of love awareness. Yogi and Choco are certified therapy dogs with St.John's Ambulance and visit various long term care homes in Thunder Bay providing dog therapy. I am home full time so your furry friend will be looking after at all times. I will cater my day around your dog stay and his/her needs. We will do our best between me and my wife to supervise your dog all the time. Except during long boarding when I will do some errands (no more than 2 hours). For safety your dog can be created at that time. We have a large fully fenced backyard to play and chill. We will board and care with one or two dogs from the same family only. If your dogs is needing to be crated for his/her comfort that will be available in our home. Specific dog training can be added to our daily routine.

Kunika has been excellent with my small breed dog. She was in constant communication and also provided confidence by sending pictures of the walks and meals. I would definitely recommend Kunika as a sitter in the future! Leo was with her for almost 12 hours and she was able to handle him with lots of care!

About: I have a 1 year old golden doodle (Dezi) and we would love to take another dog for our walks or have a dog stay with us! She is very social and plays great with other dogs. I’ve lived with dogs all my life and firmly believe of positive reinforcement training methods. I go on a variety of walks each week to keep the dogs stimulated. I love to include time off leash so dogs can play, explore, and work on their social behaviour within a pack setting. I am a student currently studying my Masters through McGill University so I have a flexible schedule with weekends off. I am a dog mom and will care for your precious babies how I care for my own.
