Pet care experience

Vibrant Senior who enjoys animals.

Your fur Baby will be the only fur baby in the house during their stay and will get my undivided love and attention. I have had many dogs, in my life and have taken care of dogs of friends and family when they travel. My wife and I enjoy having dogs in and around the house and dogs are welcome on the furniture and can sleep in the bedroom if they need to. We are comfortable with overnighting dogs in crates if that is their comfort. Non Smoking House Please let me know if your pet is up to date on all their vaccinations if their pet profile is not up to date. Drop off/pick up: I am flexible with drop off times. Pick up time should be near/close to the same time that you dropped your pet off. If you need to drop your pet off earlier or pick them up later please let us know and I will add the applicable charges to your booking. Please bring: -their favourite foods, treats and snacks along with a feeding schedule and their food bowl. -their favourite bed and blanket -their favourite toy(s) -their leash -any oral medicine they may require along with guidelines.

Jack enjoyed his time with Benjamin and it looked like he was very comfortable with him from the looks of the pictures that were sent to us. Appreciated the updates from Benjamin.

Ben was amazing and provided regular updates throughout the day. He was so easy to work with, and his home was a wonderful environment for our dog. We will definitely be repeat clients!

Ben and his wife Deb were such kind people. Ben was very diligent every step of the way. He arranged the meet and greet to ensure that the pet and he were a good fit. This made me feel much at ease as I don’t want to leave my pup with someone irresponsible. The meet and greet was structured very well, chatting with us, having a checklist of questions, and then leaving our dog with him for several minutes to check his behavior without us around. Afterwards, the follow-up messages prior to our pup’s arrival were also sent timely. Finally, when we dropped off our doggo, Ben gave us lots of updates and photos, which were reassuring to know that my pup was safe and having a good time. Will definitely be sending our boy to Ben again! Thank you for being so great with Rafa!
