Information Joel V. would like to know about your pet

We recently lost our best friend Thurman. We do have a puppy so if your dog is not cool with little guys this might not be the best fit for you.

A typical day

Your pup will enjoy walks around Arvada olde town and down the Ralston Creek trail. We are always in the yard playing and giving tons of cuddles on the couch.

Pet care experience

Hi! We're Sami, Joe, Penelope and Bronx! Our pups are our best friends, and we love playing with other doggies when their best friends are away. We love to share, play in the yard or take a stroll around the neighborhood. We’ll always treat your dog like one of our pack. Our dog had Addison’s disease so we know how to care for and love dogs with special needs. We also know how much you love your animals cause we love ours just as much. Someone is usually home with the kiddos so your pup will always have company and we’ll always be available to keep you posted about your doggies well being. Sami volunteers for the MidAmerican Boston Terrier Rescue. We have been dog sitting for over 8 years and want you to know your pup is safe with us. We have thankfully become so popular we cannot guarantee your pup will be the only one here. But we can try however sometimes there is an overlap of 1-2 days depending on our schedule. We are vaccinated and please ask if you are not you wear a mask if you choose to come inside.
