We love pups!

Pet care experience

Hello! We are a husband and wife who have the sweetest and friendliest pup on the block. We rescued Tokyo (named after our favorite city) from Tijuana 4 years ago. He is friendly with every single dog and human he meets. He will quickly become your dogs best friend. My husband, Blake, and I both work from home so there is someone always around and available to give your dog all the attention and playtime they need. Even though we have a fenced backyard we still take the dogs out 3+ times a day (so they get their steps in ;)). We hope your pet has the best time and truly hope they become a regular. Please note that Tokyo, although incredibly sweet and friendly, gets spooked by high energy pups and large dogs. We want to keep our little guy comfortable so please let us know if your dog is friendly and sweet with others before booking. We won't accept aggressive or loud/barking dogs. Blake and I work from home and are always around for a dog walk, playtime or a snuggle. We are usually up around 8:30AM, take our pup on a morning stroll. We take a lunch break at noon for another doggy walk and end the work day around 4/5PM for some high energy doggy playtime - we love throwing the ball, playing hockey or frisbee in our yard or sometimes even taking our pup for a river swim. Around 10PM we'll take the pup out for a final walk. We have 6 acres of land so there's plenty of room for the pups to play. It is fully fenced but for new dogs, we keep them close to the home and take them on strolls through the land attended.

I can always tell how my dog’s stay was based on his mood, and Lenny was so relaxed when I picked him up from Darina and Blake. I think that alone speaks highly of how he was treated. They’re responsive, friendly, and flexible on planning - I definitely foresee more doggy boarding with them in the future.

Our labradoodle is sometimes sensitive to travel and new places. With Darina and Blake she seemed perfectly content and at home. We would be glad to go back again!

Darina & Blake helped me with last minute doggy day care for my special rescue dog who currently has separation anxiety. They work from home which is puuurfect for pets who can't be left alone. Their wonderful home seems to be a good place for dogs, surrounded by natural forest beauty for sniff walks. I recommend them to help you and your fur babies!

Lovely home and welcoming people! Darin’s and Blake welcomed Rio into their family for the day and Rio was much happier than being home alone.
