We will update you with pics throughout your dog’s stay. Please bring whatever your dog needs to be comfortable—food, dog bed, special treats, sweaters or booties if cold weather, calming chews, etc. We take care that our dog and our guest get along well. Your dog will be the only guest in our home, alongside our resident dog. Our dog is mostly indifferent to other dogs but occasionally finds a playmate. We do feed dogs separately and place them in separate closed-door rooms when we leave. We’re happy to have the dogs meet for a short walk prior to booking.

A typical day

In addition to long walks in our nearby park, we’ve got plenty of toys and mentally stimulating treat puzzles at home. And we’re always ready for a cuddle break and snuggles on the couch. If you’re dog needs more activity, longer walks take us to an enclosed dog park.

Pet care experience

We are two dog-smitten people who, after adopting our own dog Olive a few years ago, have continued fostering dogs and volunteering through local shelters and are now sitting for Rover. We love meeting new dogs and showering them with love and attention while they’re in our home. We have a soft spot for seniors and have experience working with shyer/anxious dogs.

Another great stay with Abigail and Christopher! Daisy was so eager to see them, she ran to the door when we dropped her off. We received daily updates, and were so happy to know our doggo was doing well. Thank you! Liz, John, and Daisy

Our go-to pet sitters! Always so communicative and on top of it. Our dog loves being with them and it gives us such piece of mind when we leave town. The best!
