Safety, trust & environment

It depends on the dog. Our last dog was a senior dog for many years and became deaf and blind so we had to carry him outside for walks almost every 3 hours. He was always more playful than affectionate so we played with him a lot and then he would go and nap. When we dog sit for my Parents, their dog never wants to play. He just wants to snuggle and be scratched all day. Special diets aren't an issue either.

Warm house, loving family

Pet care experience

I've raised dogs since I was a child. Our last dog, Brady, passed away this year at the age of 18 and although we will probably adopt a new pet at some point, short term care of dogs seems like a better fit for our lifestyle at the moment plus we aren't ready to "replace" Brady yet. Except for running basic errands, I will be home with your pet almost 24/7 and we have 2 daughters (ages 11 and 13) who are really looking forward to playing with new dogs on a regular basis.

Andrew and his family provided such a wonderful and warm home for an anxious pup like ours. It was Colters first time at a sitters home and they made it go as perfectly as possible. We can’t thank Andrew & co enough and highly recommend him to all pup parents!

Parker’s second visit to Andrew’s place, and she’ so relaxed and happy. Andrew is very professional and takes time to understand the dog’s specific needs and concerns. And he sends the best pictures! We really appreciate his willingness to accommodate a random midweek overnight stay.
