Highlights
Pet care experience
Let Us Care for Your Dog!
I grew up with dogs that loved to play. I am a full believer in positive reward style training and bonding to create trust (crate training, potty training, etc). In the world of pet-sitting, some dogs need specialized attention to details and extra care/protection compared to their counterparts, but they can be just as loving and empathetic. My wife and I will make sure they're in an environment where they feel safe and nurtured while living their best life! Priority is for everyone to feel happy, comfortable, and safe.

Ratings and reviews
Derek and Catharine were excellent. Took us on last minute but made it work. Thanks. Does seem happy and I got lots of pictures.
Derek and Catherine took great care of our dog, Cooper! We received updates about his stay and they were accommodating with our drop off and pick up schedule. Would book with them again!
Couldn’t ask for more caring treatment for Frankie. Very grateful for Derek & Catherin’es attention and affection!
Frankie’s new best friends are named Derek & Catherine! She was so well cared for and loved during my trip, better probably than I can do. Lots of care, cuddles, and updates. Could not have been better — thank you so much!!
Derek is a true animal lover! It’s clear he has grown up with pets. He’s incredibly responsible and will treat your pup like his own. He even has a flexible work schedule allowing for more interaction and mid day walks! You won’t regret booking Derek!

Schedule
My wife and I alternate working remote from home to working in office, so we will coordinate one of us to be looking after your dog at our home while we work during the day. If preferable, we can also look after your dog in your home/housesit depending on location.
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
We have a small shared fenced condo yard as well as easy walking distance to the local dog park near L Street Beach, and Joe Moakley park. My wife and I enjoy leisurely walks along Carson to M-street beach as well as to Castle Island. We will enjoy walking your dog as we love fresh air and the beach!
A typical day
We love to play games with dogs such as fetch, squeeky toys, tug of war, etc. Your pet will also enjoy walks along the beach and visits to the park.
