Cozy Canine Retreat!

Pet care experience

Oh, the joyous, tail-wagging adventures of life with Golden Retrievers! Four—count 'em, four—floofy, lovable Goldens have graced my home over a quarter-century of pure, unadulterated puppy love! Each one, a ray of sunshine, a bundle of barks and boops, bringing dog-tastic delight to my world! But wait, there's more! A backyard, vast and verdant, fenced to perfection, awaits all manner of canine capers! Romping, frolicking, playing fetch in a doggy wonderland—oh, what fun! And the best part? I'm here, at home, ready to shower each furry guest with love, love, love! Alas, the plot thickens! For I, an intrepid traveler, journey to distant lands, exploring the globe with zest and zeal! A full-time pup of my own? Not in the cards, dear reader, not while wanderlust beckons! But fret not, for a splendid solution is at hand! Behold! A grand invitation to four-legged friends far and wide! Come, stay, be pampered in a home where doggy dreams come true! While I'm not gallivanting across continents, my abode transforms into a haven for hounds, a sanctuary for snoots! In a world of twists and turns, of boundless excitement and curiosity, I find solace in the company of canine companions. Together, we'll embark on a journey of joy, of wagging tails and heartfelt woofs, until the next grand voyage calls me away!

Archie does such a great job of taking care of Miso. This is his second visit and will be using again!

Archie took great care of our dog and was more than accommodating when our travel plans changed unexpectedly. We received numerous updates, and he was an overall joy to work with.

Archie was quick to respond to my initial inquiry and was able to take on a pretty last-minute overnight stay for our dog. We received updates, photos, and videos daily. Archie was very amiable and accommodating. He has a great fenced backyard that our dog enjoyed! We are keeping him on our short list of go-to sitters and will likely have our dog back over to Archie's very soon!

Archie was great to our dogs! We felt that he took such good care of them! We have two collies, so they enjoyed his beautiful backyard which is fenced and safe for them. He kept us well informed, and frequently sent pictures and videos. We highly recommend him, and will take our dogs there in the future

Information Archie B. would like to know about your pet

We kindly ask that you inform us if your dog exhibits aggressive chewing behavior or has a history of damaging furniture or carpets. As our upstairs area is carpeted, we'll take precautions by keeping your dog in the downstairs area if such behavior has been previously observed. Your transparency helps us ensure a safe and comfortable environment for both your dog and our home.

A typical day

In my home, your dogs will find a welcoming environment filled with enjoyable activities. We'll spend time in my secure backyard playing fetch, where your dogs can run freely and have fun in a safe space. When we're indoors, there's no shortage of entertainment—we'll have playtime with a variety of dog toys that are sure to keep your furry friends engaged and content. In addition to playtime, we'll take leisurely strolls around my neighborhood, giving your dogs the opportunity to explore and enjoy the outdoors. While I don't visit dog parks, I'm committed to providing a fulfilling experience through personalized activities and attentive care. With a blend of outdoor play, indoor fun, and calming walks, your dogs will receive the care and attention they deserve during their stay with me

In the delightful whirl of my day, each moment is a chance to sprinkle joy into the lives of my furry guests. Home is my haven, and I'm here most of the day, weaving a tapestry of care and companionship for each wagging tail. With the early morning sun as my cue, I spring into action—walks, playtime, and a dash of spontaneity set the tone for a day brimming with possibilities. Attuned to the unique quirks of each pup, I revel in crafting experiences that spark joy and contentment. Whether it's a playful romp or a serene cuddle, the day unfolds like a kaleidoscope of canine delight. And as twilight descends, the adventure continues—I'm here, a reassuring presence, as the dogs nestle in for a cozy night. In the ebb and flow of my schedule, the well-being of the dogs takes center stage, and I'm wholeheartedly committed to making their stay a heartwarming and enchanting journey.
