I currently work early mornings and get home by early afternoon. My wife works from home and can care for your dog during the day. Then when our 3 kids get home from school they will be cuddled and loved right until bedtime. We can offer 1-2 walks per day. We reside in a lovely neighbourhood with walking paths, parks and green spaces. We can look after your loved one during the week or on weekends - whatever you need!

Big loving family!!!

Pet care experience

We had a lovely Shih Tzu named “Sydney” (aka Syd The Kid) who passed away 4 years ago. She was a huge part of this family. We were lucky to have her for 12 wonderful years. Since losing her, there has been a void in our family. We are not quite ready to get another dog to replace Syd The Kid but would love and enjoy taking care of yours for a day, or two, or week while you go away. We feel pet boarding is a great opportunity to bring a pet back into this family and look after your loved one for as long as you need. :)

What a wonderful family and excellent dog sitters. We were kept advised on how our dog was doing and I have to say she was having so much fun I was worried she might not want to come home. If you want a reliable dog sitter you will not find a better family. They are truly marvellous.

This beautiful and kind family took such great care of our Standard Poodle Chloe. She didn’t want to leave them. I’m sure she’s already excited for her next visit.

I can't say enough good things!!! From the moment we met this family we knew they would care for our dog as if she was theirs!!! They are so kind and welcoming. Our dog has never spent a night away from home and they supported her ( and us) though it!! Lots of updates and photos shared. It was enjoyable experience for all!

Amazing family! Christoper and Karen are great and together with their girls gave Stanley lots of love, cuddles, and walks. He was happy, relaxed, and loved like he was a part of the family, which made us feel secure knowing he was well taken care of! Highly recommend!
