Pet care experience

Stay with a dog living family!

We're a dog loving family of 4, 5 if you include our sweet and calm labradoodle, Gus. Our 6 year old loves dogs so much that she wants 100 more and our 1 year old is quickly becoming the same way. We thought this would be a great way for the kids to "get" 100 more dogs.

Elissa and the family took great care of our young, anxious pup. Despite some regressions in behavior from our first trip away, she treated him with compassion and care and updated me daily on how he was doing. Thanks so much!!

Elissa and Andy are the real deal. From the moment we dropped Charlie Brown off, it was clear he was in caring, attentive hands — they treated him like he was their own. They sent plenty of photos and kept us updated throughout our trip, so our minds were completely at ease. Charlie came home happy, healthy, and clearly loved every minute. We wouldn’t hesitate to book with them again — highly recommend!

Elissa and Andy were absolutely exceptional sitters for Coco. From day one, they provided detailed daily updates with photos and thoughtful notes, which gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. Coco was clearly treated as part of their family. It was heartwarming to see how loved he was by everyone, including their kids. He received constant attention, playtime, and affection, and it truly showed in how comfortable and happy he looked throughout his stay. When Coco came back home, he looked incredibly well cared for – clean, happy, relaxed, and clearly content. It was obvious that his routine, comfort, and wellbeing were a top priority the entire time. Elissa and Andy are communicative, reliable, and genuinely caring. Their home is warm, safe, and ideal for dogs who thrive on human connection and family energy. We would trust them again without hesitation and highly recommend them to anyone looking for sitters who go above and beyond in every way.

Schedule

My husband and I both work from home so we have plenty of time to take your sweet pup outside. We live 2 blocks from John McLaren park and can go for nice scenic walks. Gus does sleepovers with his best doggie friend most weekends, so he's not at home from Friday afternoons till Sunday mornings, so if we watch your dog over a weekend, they will get all the love and attention to themselves.
