Ratings and reviews
Me: Hey Tuukka, what was the highlight of your stay this time? Tuukka: You been besides the baby possum, the black cat and my Houdini disappearing skills? Me: In other words, you had a 5 star stay again, right Tuukka? Tuukka: 6 star, Mom. 6 star.
Another wonderful stay for Ollie. We totally trust Craig for all of Ollie’s needs. No worries when we’re away and Ollie is there. We are booked for another stay this fall.
Maggie had a lovely stay with Craig & Aaron, as always! Love getting daily updates with a few pics throughout her stay.
Tuukka: Hey Mom. I really missed Craig and Aaron. It was fun to have a sleepover again! Me: That's great to hear, Tuukka! What was your favorite part? Tuukka: I got to hunt wild boar in their backyard! You should see all the stuff back there! Me: It was a rabbit, wasn't it Tuukka? Tuukka: *ignoring me*
Pipo always has a great time with Craig. We know he’s in very good hands.
Tuukka: Mom, you didn't bring me back a t-shirt or a doggy bone or anything from your trip. Me: You're right, Tuukka. I feel shame. Tuukka: Ya, well Craig and Aaron would have! Me: Craig and Aaron are the best.

Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I have a very secure large back yard. Dogs I host pretty much get the run of the house. They can spend as much time outside or inside as they like depending on the weather.
A typical day
Heaps of attention and affection. Visits to the off lead dog park/walks. Heaps of outside time. Socialization. Play with toys, fetch and retrieve. Very large fully secure yard where dogs can run and play.
