Where Tails Come to Wag

Experienced in the care of several dogs, my husband, Bryden, and I provide attentive and compassionate services tailored to each pet's needs. From soothing anxious pups to catering to the energy of active dogs. Our late pup suffered from anxiety due to deafness but was very active and hyper. Having said that, we have learned how to calm nervous pups and how to focus high-energy into enriching tasks. Proficient in caring for both senior dogs needing gentle attention and high-energy companions craving active outings, we ensure a safe and comfortable experience for furry friends under our care.

Joey stayed with Joelle for two weeks. We got so many lovely photos and updates! Joey had a wonderful stay and will be excited to go back.

Joelle and her husband did another amazing job of taking care of our Eva. She was always fast to communicate, send photos and videos often, and truly treated Eva like one of the family! Eva and their dog Minnie are the best of friends and it made us so happy to know she was loved and cared for while we were gone for 3 weeks. They truly did a wonderful job and we can’t recommend enough!

We dropped our dog Joey off for a weekend with Joelle and she had a great time! Joelle provided updates and pictures which we loved. When we picked Joey up she was pooped from a weekend of playing. We would be happy to leave Joey with Joelle again in the future.

Our pup had another great stay! We really appreciate the photo updates and the quick communication. Minnie is Eva’s new best friend and we’re so happy she has a happy place to stay.

Didn’t know Joelle was going away the day we brought our dog, but she had made sure there was someone who would be equally as competent as her. Bella seemed to have a good time
