Pet care experience
Responsible & experienced
Hi Everyone! My name is Antoine. I am a HUGE dog lover and treat each as if they were my own. I have many years of experience handling and caring for dogs of all ages, including basic obedience training. I am constantly keeping myself educated with dog behavior and training techniques. I have been dog-sitting regularly for 5 years and all of my recurring guest dogs have become an extension of our family. I have a Maltipoo, Melo, who is very friendly and loving, and will help keep your pup happy and active when they stay with us. All dogs will be walked 2-3 times a day (weather permitting) for at least 30 minutes each walk, fed as needed, and provided with fun activities. We have a small, enclosed yard where your pup can enjoy some fresh air, sun-tanning, and additional exercise. We also have a beautiful greenbelt right behind our house where there is plenty of room for your dog to roam and play. I know first hand how stressful it can be to leave your 4-legged family member with someone (for both the human and the dog!) so I send daily picture/video updates during your pup's stay so that you can relax and enjoy your vacation! Please note the overnight rate applies to a 24-hour or less period (AM drop-off, AM pick up). Daycare rate may apply if stay is longer (for example, morning drop-off with an afternoon or evening pick-up) -An additional charge for puppies under 2 years of age and to holiday bookings Please do not hesitate to contact me with any questions, and I look forward to meeting you and your pup!

Ratings and reviews
Antoine is great. He's taken care of Oliver on numerous occasions. Dog comes home happy and tired!
You just cannot go wrong with Antoine and his care. My dog loves going there and leaps eagerly from car, barking and tail wagging. Very impressed and grateful pet owner here.
My dog stayed with Antoine for two days and nights. When I picked my dog up at 9pm, I asked him if Kai pooped that day. Antoine said he did not poop. I was very shocked because my dog poops at least 2-3 times in the morning and at least one time at night. When I came home Kai was whining and clawing at the door. I took him outside and he immediately pooped. The next day he woke up early and was clawing at the door again. We went for a really early walk and he pooped such a large amount that it makes me think that Kai didn't poop both days he stayed with Antoine. Antoine did not seem to care if Kai pooped or not when I brought it to his attention. I don’t ask for much when it comes to caring for my dog since he is low maintenance, but when you can’t care for his basic needs, that is NOT okay. Antoine also assured me that I would be receiving pictures and updates. I didn’t get any pictures and when I asked for updates, it was a one word response. Antoine does not respond in a timely manner either. I was eager to use Antoine because of his great reviews but after my experience I would not trust him with my dog again.
Antoine is a pleasure to work with! He is always very polite and my dog is so excited to see him. I am grateful to have a caretaker who lives close by and loves dogs so much.
Our Blondie had a wonderful time with Antoine! She is an energetic young puppy and he took very good care of her! We got video and pictures of her during her stay and she looked like she was very well cared for. She settled back easily into her routine back home...definitely recommend Antoine highly!
Antoine did a great job boarding and tending to our aging pup. We felt like our dog was in very good hands and his updates were appreciated. We highly recommend him!
