Your fur-baby home away from home

We have grown up with different breeds of dogs, cats and birds. We have grown so fond of all fur-babies. We would like to provide a space for your fur-baby when you have to leave them behind. Making them feel at home and comfortable while you are away from them is my goal. We are a close knit family of 3, that will make them part of our family. We have worked from home for the last past 10 years and will continue to do so going forward. If your fur-baby is with Gaston and I, I plan to use my time to walk around the neighborhood or make a point to take a walk in the backyard. We currently have a 4 year old bichon frise mixed named Maui, 3 year old male Figi and their baby Kona who is 2 years old. Your fur-baby will have a wonderful friend to make once here. They love everyone.

Bonita was wonderful as usual. She took Teddy on short notice and made her home his home. He was happy to be there and came home a happy dog as well. Thanks Bonita

Bonita was easy to communicate plans as we set up the boarding details. You can tell that she and her husband, Gaston, are very comfortable and experienced with all fur babies. She made Teddy a part of her family. Teddy had a great time playing with Fiji. Bonita sent updates and pictures as requested. Thank you, Bonita and Gaston for taking such good care of Teddy. He was calm and tired when he returned, which was nice to see!

Bonita and her husband Gaston did a wonderful job looking after my boy. He has a lot of anxiety (gets it from me I’m sure lol) so he was a little scared the first night but they did a wonderful job making him feel safe. Will definitely be reaching out to them again!
