Highlights
Pet care experience
Animal rescue volunteer, happy home
My kids and I volunteer at Tri Valley Animal Rescue, and have a nice house at which we'd love to host your dog(s). I tend to travel for work so having dogs of our own doesn't work so much, but we'd love to get to take care of yours sometimes! We have both indoor options and outdoor options. We've lived in the Tri-Valley for 20+ years. I moved from Niagara Falls NY area, which is beautiful in the fall and you get four different seasons, no complaints here. I've got an SUV with a good amount of space and the seats fold down if needed for dog activities. It's fully paid off and I don't mind using it for dog activities a bit. Hope to hear from you!
Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
Chris and Tamara were amazing with my dog Dashi, who is paralyzed and requires special care. they took the time to learn what he needed and handled everything perfectly. They communicated daily, and were incredibly caring and attentive. I truly appreciated their dedication and would highly recommend them! We’re looking forward to Dashi’s next stay with Chris and Tamara!
Chris and Tamara took great care of Tony! We are so particular about who we leave him with, and they did a wonderful job of sending us photos/videos and putting our minds at ease. Tony came home happy, and so did we. We look forward to Tony’s next stay with Chris and Tamara!
Chris and Tamara were so great at calming our nerves! They sent photos pretty much every day, they had they’re previous week extend their stay, and did a great job at introducing the dogs to each other safely. My husband doesn’t trust just anyone with our pup, but he does trust these two!
Chris and Tamara took wonderful care of my furry kids Bucky and Chewy when we were on a vacation. From the meet & greet, it was already clear that they had natural connections with dogs, which made us feel completely comfortable leaving our dogs with them. They kept us updated with tons of photos and videos everyday and we could tell Bucky and Chewy were happy, relaxed and enjoying their time with Chris and Tamara! They also followed all our feeding instructions and ensured that our dogs’ daily routing was consistent! I could tell our dogs received great care and attention they needed. We highly recommend Chris and Tamara to help taking care of your dogs if you are looking for someone who will treat your furry kids with love and care while you are away!
My little Yorkie is a bit skittish and has anxiety, so I am always a little stressed when I have to leave her, but from what I could tell, she had a great stay with Chris and Tamara. They sent tons of pictures and videos and I could tell they took wonderful care of Casey. She seemed happy and content in all of the photos so I was able to relax and enjoy my vacation. Thank you Chris and Tamara. Casey looks forward to staying with you again.
We couldn't have asked for better dog sitters. Chris and Tamara went above and beyond to make sure Cinnamon was comfortable and happy during his stay. They kept us updated with daily text messages, photos and videos, which was such a lovely gesture and helped us feel connected to Cinnamon while we were away. We knew that Cinnamon was in good hands, and this gave us peace of mind during our vacation. They followed all of our instructions, and even went the extra mile to make sure Cinnamon felt at home. They took the time to understand his individual needs and preferences, which made all the difference. All in all, we were extremely happy with Chris and Tamara's services and would recommend them to anyone looking for a friendly, reliable, and caring dog sitter. We can't thank them enough for taking such great care of our furry baby, and we look forward to booking with them again in the future. Thanks again, Chris and Tamara!

Schedule
We don’t have pets of our own due to my travel schedule, so we enjoy boarding other people’s pets for our family to enjoy whenever possible!
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
We make sure to adhere to food and outdoor schedules including play with other friendly dogs when possible. We aim for crated sleeping but also can usually adjust to other needs.
A typical day
Plenty of yard running around, plus there’s a park a few minutes away for when that gets boring. Every once in a while we try to get out for a run, too!
