Loving Care for Your Furry Friend

Elizabeth - Having cared for various neighborhood dogs since childhood, I bring a wealth of experience to my dog-sitting services. My beloved chocolate lab lived a long and joyful life, which has given me valuable insight into the unique needs of senior dogs. Joao - Growing up in Portugal, I've had a lot of pets in my lifetime including dogs, cats, birds, turtles, chinchillas, hedgehogs and fish. I especially love dogs. I trained my current dog to sit and lie down using hand signals without any professional help. Recently, we've expanded our services to include dog-sitting in the comfort of our neighbors’ homes. Your furry friends will receive love, companionship, and professional care while you’re away. We are completely smoke-free and will keep your home just how you left it. We look forward to providing a safe and happy environment for your pets :)

Chunky had a great time with Elizabeth and João! They sent daily updates and pictures and both Chunky and our house were well taken care of. We’ll definitely be using their services again!

Elizabeth and Joao were amazing. They sent us pictures and updates that made us feel at ease. Our dog needs activity and we felt like they took great care of her and gave her lots of walks. I know they did a good job, because our little scaredy cat came out of hiding. They were respectful and tidy in our home. Very trustworthy!

Caring, kind, gentle, flexible, dedicated and loving are just a few words to describe Elizabeth & João. Anyone who books this couple to care for their family member will be very lucky.
