Your dog's new best friend
Pet care experience
Hello! When my clients travel, I am their first choice for a pet-sitter. They trust that their furry friends will be in good hands, allowing them to be away without worrying. I am highly attentive to the needs of dogs, from feeding schedules to playtime, walks, medication and bedtime. With knowledge about various breeds and canine behavior, I ensure a comfortable and enjoyable experience for your pets. NEW! the stay is now a House stay with fenced backyard! For added convenience, as my long term clients live in the city, I offer transportation by car, with no added fee to the regular drop-off and pick-up (electric cars help the environments and YOUR wallet too). During the stay at my house right outside the city- provides more space and a fenced backyard, offering a fun and safe environment for your pets. (as well as MAX, my miniature dachshund). The house is also equipped with security cameras to ensure their safety. YOUR DOG DESERVES SPACE and A VACATION of his/her own WHILE YOU ARE ON YOURS, right? A minimum stay of two nights is required at the house, allowing your pets to settle in and enjoy a relaxing environment. I recommend booking in advance, especially during holidays, to secure your spot. It gets very busy! You can contact me 24/7 for updates about your pooch, as I understand the importance of staying connected with your beloved pets. Whether it's boarding or house sitting, my flexible schedule allows us to work out a suitable arrangement for your specific needs. Additionally, I handle visits to the vet and groomer seamlessly, ensuring your pet's health and well-being are a top priority. Whether you're at work or on vacation, you can rely on my responsiveness and reliability, providing your pet with a combination of fun times, love, care, and a healthy routine. Your pet's happiness and comfort are my number one priority!
Reviews
Great experience. Francesca treated our fur baby like her own and updated us regularly with photos and videos. This was not the first time we had our dog stay with Francesca and it will for sure not be the last time.
Francesca was amazing. She took great care of Mumu and constantly checked in with updates and photos. It felt like having a family member watching Mumu and it really meant a lot to us that she helped us out last minute when we needed boarding in a pinch. (Mumu says: 5 stars.) Highly recommend!
Francesca and her husband were absolutely spectacular! I was leaving on my longest trip since COVID, and my usual sitter had a family emergency (2 days before my trip); I heard back from Francesca almost immediately, and every step taken thereafter made me so relieved and thrilled that I had found them! Cortana is shy, submissive, and takes a little time to feel comfortable...but not with them; she was at ease, and at home, immediately - exploring, playing with their pups, and running around like crazy. Simply no greater joy than knowing your pup is safe and happy while on vacay - they gave me an incredible gift. 5 stars all around - just fantastic.
Francesca was absolutely amazing. She was so knowledgeable on care for pups and especially for my breed. I can’t wait to book with her again!

Information Francesca R. would like to know about your pet
Pretty much everything about them: feeding times, special needs, preferences, personality (dog lovers know they have plenty of it and each is unique). Preferred toy and games and walk times. I love all dogs. I may be more acquainted to certain breeds, but I am open and able to take care of all dogs.
A typical day
Your dog will get plenty of exercise and play time. For visits and house-sitting I am open to hear what the dog's favorite area for walks are.
