WFH dog parents, pet friendly home

Pet care experience

If you're looking for someone to take care of your furry friend while you're away, my wife and I would be happy to help! We've grown up with dogs, so we know how to keep them happy and healthy. We have a friendly miniature schnauzer of our own who loves to play and is up to date on all his vaccines. We live in a pet-friendly apartment with plenty of room for your dog to run around, and we have lots of toys to keep them entertained. We're also close to Fred Anderson Park, so we can take your dog on a walk there if you give us permission. If your dog needs to be walked separately, we're happy to accommodate that too. We've completed puppy training, so we can help your dog learn new tricks and behaviors. We're a loving family who works from home, so your dog will have plenty of attention and care.

Hootie loves staying with Jamie and Ritz. They are always so diligent about sending updates and pictures and our pup always looks so happy in their care!

Jamie and Ritz watched my dog for a week while I was out of town. They were very communicative and gave great updates. My dog loves playing and hanging with their dog, and had the best time! I trust that they’re taking really good care of her. Thank you!

Safety, trust & environment

We live in a dog friendly apartment and give them a lot of care and attention throughout the day. We also have a social miniature schnauzer that will keep your dog entertained. If you dog is more on the shy side, we can also separate the dogs into different playing areas. We keep our apartment very clean and the dogs will not be able to reach any objects that may potentially harm them. We do have a balcony but it will be locked at all times. There are plenty of grass areas that we can access near for their potty breaks. There are also two dog parks that we often visit - if the owner allows - we will be happy to bring them to the dog park and dog friendly parks near by for their walks.
