Pet care experience

Hi! We are Didier and Elizabeth and we love dogs. We live with our 2 pups, Roxy (Minnie Aussie) and Kaya (Aussie). We have cared for/raised dogs for a collective 75 years. We have experience with large and small breeds and special needs dogs. (Our minnie aussie, Roxy, is blind and still works on agility skills!) We also understand that each dog breed comes with special inherent traits. We have lived experience with huskies, boxers, German shepherds, poodles (all sizes), border collies and aussies (all sizes). We also have experience in working with special needs dogs. We approach our work with dogs using only positive reinforcement. It is our job to see the world through 'their eyes' not their job to see the world through ours. Meeting a dog on his/her level increases understanding and helps in bonding a relationship with the animal. We like to keep our dogs stimulated mentally with games and physically with exercise. Whether high energy or just being able to chill on the couch, rest assured, we will meet your pup on his/her level to make sure his/her care is top notch while you are away. We do dog care because we love dogs and we have lots of time to spend with them. Our schedules allow us to be home all day to be sure your pup is surrounded with the love and care you would give him/her yourself! What we would like to know: -Key words that your dog knows -Routines for food, potty needs, exercise -Special needs (some dogs just don't want to be touched behind the ears, we get it!) -Vet information

Our dog, Mia, has stayed with Elizabeth and Didier several times and each time she is treated with so much love! We always know she’s in great hands with them and their sweet dogs.

Elizabeth and Didier are wonderful caregivers to our senior Boxer Ziggy! He has great fun playing with Kaya, Luna Maya and little Roxie ❤️. Ziggy is just a fun, chill 😎 guy.

This was our dog’s second stay with Elizabeth and Didier, and everything went very well! They are super responsive, sent us updates on how she was doing and overall we just know that they treated her with love and kindness! Highly recommend!

Information Elizabeth & Didier C. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your dog has any special needs (medications, recent surgeries, specialized foods, sensitive areas on his/her body, training needs, interactions with other dogs). We have lots of experience training dogs too! Let us know if you would like us to work on any particular skills while you are away.

A typical day

We love to keep dogs stimulated with physical and mental play. We only use positive reinforcement training and meet a dog on his/her level. Our typical day involves meals, play outside, rest inside, play again, walks as needed. We live one block away from a wooded area with a creek and walking path and about 1/2 mile away from a park with large pond. From our house, it is about a perfect 3 mile walk. Our fenced in backyard is spacious enough for zoomies or just to lounge in the sun. Your pup will have as much of a vacation as you do!
