Safety, trust & environment

Your dog will love our spacious, secure fenced yard in our quiet neighborhood, perfect for zooming around and playing safely. We also have a large interior space for them enjoy. We’re just steps away from walking trails, parks, and a neighbourhood lake with dog-friendly paths, so daily adventures and fresh air are always on the agenda (weather permitting). We offer boarding and daycare for potty-trained dogs over 1 year old, with a focus on small and medium breeds up to 40 lbs. To keep things personal and fun, we only host up to two dogs at a time—ensuring exclusive attention, from belly rubs to supervised playdates. We’re comfortable administering oral medications as needed, and we promise daily photo and video updates so you can see all the tail-wagging joy! What makes our home special? Our Westies love making new friends, turning every stay into a lively pack adventure filled with playtime, naps and cuddles. Whether it’s a quick daycare drop-off or a longer boarding getaway, your pup will head home happy, tired, and spoiled. Let’s chat about your dog’s personality and needs—we can’t wait to welcome them to our pack!

A typical day

We’re dog parents who understand that some dogs like to sleep all day while others want to play frequently, and we love them all the same! Need to go outside often? Not a problem. Want to play tug, fetch or chase-my-tail? Let’s do it!

Pet care experience

With a lifetime of loving and caring for dogs—from our childhood pets to our own energetic Westies, Luna and Ariel—we’re well-equipped to handle a variety of needs. We’ve successfully managed high-energy pups by channeling their zest into fun, structured activities like daily walks on nearby trails, interactive play sessions in our secure fenced yard, and engaging games to keep them happily tired out. For dogs requiring medications, we’re comfortable administering oral doses as scheduled, ensuring precise timing and gentle handling to make it stress-free. We also accommodate special diets as instructed—whether it’s portion-controlled kibble or allergy-specific foods—to keep tails wagging and tummies content. Since we both work from home, we’re always available to provide attentive, round-the-clock care, adapting to any unique requirements your furry friend might have for a safe, joyful stay!

Thank you for taking such good care of my senior dog. He came home tired! After picking him up, he slept for the remainder of the day. As they say, a tired dog is a happy dog. I also appreciated your timely updates - sending photos and a video of his stay.

I highly recommend my brother-in-law as a dog sitter. He has a genuine love for dogs and a natural ability to connect with them. He’s very attentive to their individual needs and understands that every pet has its own personality and requirements. Our dogs absolutely adore him! He’s responsible, caring, and fully appreciates how important our pets are to us. I trust him completely to care for my four-legged family members, and I’m confident he’ll be just as wonderful with yours.
