❤️Your Friendly Local Dog Lover🐾
Hi there, I'm Brett just your local dog lover living in St. Johns! We are crazy about dogs around here and can't wait to meet you and yours! Please read through each section to make sure that our services sound like a great fit for you. Please note that request received after 8 pm will likely not be responded to until the following morning but we will get back to you! We provide short and longer term boarding for toy to medium sized adult to healthy senior dogs. Our services are best suited to smaller adult dogs who are comfortable with other dogs and enjoy a quiet low stress environment. Our space is small and welcoming oasis for your small adult to senior dogs. It is my primary goal to become your go-to sitter by gaining your trust and providing you and your pets with only the best experience possible! I offer safe, affectionate, and attentive care. So let me tell you a little more about me and why my services are a great choice for you and yours! My expertise focuses on building a strong and healthy relationship between people and animals by using positive reinforcement. I believe in reward-based training techniques that foster trust between animals and humans. I do not use fear or intimidation to "make your dog" do anything. Furthermore, I have cared for many types of animals throughout my life, including dogs, cats, horses, and even reptiles, spiders, and other exotic animals. I'm reliable, responsible, and compassionate. I've always been the go-to among my friends and family when someone needs their pet taken care of. I have worked hard over the past 7 years turning my skills into a small but growing business so that you can feel confident that your pet(s) are well cared for while your away. My partner and I both telework full time so we always have someone here to provide tons of attention to your animals when you are away! I have a small fully fenced and secure yard which offers a perfect amount of space for roaming and play for smaller adult dogs. We take a minimum of two walks per day and I have tons of toys, Kong's and puzzle toys to keep even the busiest dog minds happy! You are welcome to bring crates if your dog is crate trained and I have a quiet room just off the living room for crated pups to overnight. But overall this is small numbers homestyle dog boarding. All dogs sleep in the house just like the people. We don't have kennels or separate areas on the property where animals overnight unattended. Ask about free pick up and drop off within 2 miles of my location this is available to guest booking stays of 3 nights or more. Again thank you for your consideration and we looking forwarding to meeting you soon! -Brett, Angela, Bubs and Baby
Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
What an amazing couple! They set up a time for us to get the dogs acquainted and meet first, which I love. I received updates, pictures, and feedback on Henny behaving so well 😊. I will definitely book again and maybe even make it a routine. Their dogs are well trained, and very sweet! They also have a safe space for the dogs to free roam to get outside without fear of running in the road. I can tell they’re pros!
Brett and Angel are exactly the kind of people you hope to find to care for your dogs—mature, responsible, and extremely professional. Our dogs had a wonderful stay, and we felt completely at ease knowing they were in such good hands. We would absolutely book them again for future travels.
Nothing but absolutely wonderful things to say. They were willing to care for one of my babies that has some intense anxiety and were so good with her that she even accepted treats! Instructions and requests were followed perfectly. The amount of communication was just right: a little update here and there and some pictures to show everything was alright. So much patience when one of my dogs had some tummy issues. Would more than happily book with them again!
The pup did very well with them and we will definitely book them for our next trip as well. Great communication and I could tell that she enjoyed her daily outings. They were also very helpful when pickup times had to be adjusted.
Great sitter, always takes great care of our dog!
Brett and Angela were everything you hope to get in a dog sitter. I booked very last minute with them when my prior sitter fell through. This was our first time using rover and we were gone for 5 days while getting married (so I was already a bit stressed out). It was so incredible to not have to worry about my dog while I was gone. You can tell they take this very seriously and are truly watching your pet. 10/10 will be using again.

Schedule
I work from home and have a very flexible schedule. This makes pet boarding a perfect fit for my lifestyle! I am excited to bring years of pet care experience to the St.Johns community and beyond! I am available for drop off and pick ups starting as early as 5 am and as late as 8 pm.
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
My home and yard are secure my house has a tall wood fence around the entire back and side yard. Inside my home all exits are secured by additional 3' high retractable dog gates that are always closed when I am boarding dogs. When I transport dogs I do so in my van that is outfitted with a large and secure 4 sided dog hammock with dog seat belt attachments. Dogs never ride unsecured in my van. If you need transport some is available at no charge within a certain radius from my home and on days and times I am able to offer it. When they stay with me your dogs are allowed everywhere on the main level of the home and while I have lots of soft dog beds they are also welcome to hang out on the couch! I have a ample supply of toys, treats, seat belts, dog bowls and bedding at my home so below is a list of what you should bring with your dog for a typical stay. What Your Dog Should Bring for Boarding/Sitting: - A secure harness and leash for each pet. - Crate or cage if your dog requires one. -Their food, medications and any supplements they will need while here. Please label your dogs food and meds with their names, if you forget to do so that's fine and I will label them upon their arrival. - A bed or bedding, this is not required but if you feel like your dog would be more comfy with something that smells like you then please do bring their favorite bed, blanket etc. Please don't send the following items: -Favorite toys (I cant vouch for their safety from other dogs).
Pets
A typical day
A typical day of boarding has a pretty consistent routine. We are up early (around 5 am) for the potty, followed by breakfast routine and our first walk of the day. Mid day there is another walk and open play time in the side yard. Dogs always have access to fresh water both inside and outside the house. In the evenings we have dinner for dogs that require it followed usually by another short walk for the more active dogs. Before bed we all hang out in the living room watching TV and barking at our favorite scenes of course! Sleeping arrangements get worked out and clean bedding when needed is laid out for each pet. Around 8 pm we take one more bathroom break and then we all get some shut eye until 5 am rolls around again!
