Pet care experience

We miss the Love of our own pets.

We have had pets our entire life. Now retired and travel a few months a year, so currently without a pet because of our travels. Missing the love of our own pets (Scruffy lived to 17 and Cedes lived to 16). So we have decided that the love of your pets, would be lovely and would benefit all involved. We live 2 blocks from the beach, which gives the dogs a great run and or swim permitting of course :)

Douglas and Janice are amazing! They take such great care of Linus and Lucy. I really appreciate knowing they are well looked after and can be away from them and not worry. Thank you Douglas and Janice.

Doug and Janice took amazing care of our dog Jack while we were away from two weeks. They sent lots of updates and photos and made us feel so comfortable leaving our little guy in their care. You can tell they really care about animals and treat them like they would their own. We will most definitely be reaching out to them any time we need pet care.

Doug and Janice were amazing dog sitters. They truly care for your dog like it was their own. I received pictures and updates regularly and my dog looked so happy in all the captions. I would highly recommend Doug and Janice to anyone, they were wonderful :)

Schedule

My wife and I are both retired and walk to the beach everyday, would be nice to have a dog to walk with us. For the evenings it would be nice to cuddle up to a dog or cat.
