Hi, I am Alexia, a big animal lover, as well as an aspiring farmer, potter and plant lover! I moved back to Vancouver Island after studying Environmental Horticulture in Santa Barbara, California. I am thrilled to be back on the island where I grew up. I have extensive experience with animals particularly dogs, cats, horses & goats. My mom Shelley & I share in caring for our four Golden’s along with any other fur babies that we are looking after; we both ensure special attention & love are given to all our furry friends while they are away from their owners. Our home is on a 1/2 acre located in private neighbourhood of San Pareil, steps from Rathtrevor Provincial Park, the beach, Englishman River and many forest/river trails for exercise. Shelley has done dog healing/ therapy work with those who suffer with anxiety, loneliness & recovering from health challenges who may need a friendly greeting of tail wag or a kiss with the help of our Golden’s. We are a good team with big hearts & soft spots for our furry friends that come to stay or just visit for the day. We are both comfortable and happy around all ages & breeds of dogs; our goal is for your fur baby to feel equally comfortable and happy around us. We both enjoy hiking and running around in nature, especially joined by a furry friend or two; daily we go exploring the abundant nature on Vancouver Island. We can’t wait to meet & care for your pet(s). Our Golden’s are super happy & content playing with new friends. We have separate spaces for our visiting senior furry friends who prefer a more peaceful stay. Otherwise, lots of open space to run and play for our younger more active visitors. Many beds available too. Can't wait to have your pet(s) as our guest(s). *Please check our rates before reaching out as they reflect the level & high quality of care we provide, which creates seamless transitions from your home to ours, in addition to offering guests organic treats, we also can accommodate all needs, offering many specialized spaces for various guest ages/ or energy levels; from quiet places to a 1/2 acre to play. We do everything in our power to ensure your fur baby is happy & loved with an entire family sharing their hearts & arms /or laps with guests. We will follow any/all routines to also ensure seamless transactions. We offer premium pet care services in a warm and inviting environment to create laid-back luxury for all our furry guests.
