Riverside Retreat for small dogs
We are retirees who love dogs! Both of us have had dogs for over 35 years. We have a 2 year old Cavapoo who is extremely social with dogs and people. Abby is currently working on becoming a therapy dog. We have used a sitter from Rover for the past 18 months, and now we have the time to give your pup a retreat while you are away from home. As a retired nurse, I miss taking care of people, so I would be honored to care for your little one (under 15-20 lbs)! We will be taking up to a maximum of 2 dogs at a time, so your pup will gets lots of love and attention from both of us! Puppies under 1 year are welcome. We will be glad to continue working with your pup for potty training. (Additional charge for pups not potty trained) Give your pup a “play date” and book a day care. Socialization is so important!

Safety, trust & environment
We have a fenced yard and are near a park and the Ganatchio trail. We can give medications as required. We do not use chemicals on our lawn. Your little one is welcome to be on the furniture and in bed! Feel free to bring anything (toys, blankets, bed) that will make your pup comfortable. We will update you as often as you would like - text, photos, videos. Our pup Abby has all vaccinations and monthly flea and tick prevention. We will require proof of vaccinations and flea prevention at the meet and greet. *No high energy dogs due to our Abby - she’s a gentle soul!
Ratings and reviews
Mable was tired when she got home from her walk with Jon which was great!! He sent me pictures and was on time. Would definitely book again with him!
They made our visit very pleasant, and took good care of Lola!
Jon and Stacey are loving, caring and passionate about their responsibilities of dog sitters, and provided very personalized care to our little Sprout!!! They paid very close attention to all the small details like her routine, favourite toy, eating habits…, but most of all making sure she was happy and felt safe. This in turn made us feel content about leaving her. Brian & Shelley
Magnificent sitters! Jon & Stacey are warm-hearted and extremely knowledgeable. Lovely home. Their dog Abbey is a sweetheart and made Gertie feel very comfortable. They communicated clearly with updates via text, pictures and videos. Gertie took quickly to Jon & Stacey as they are very interactive and caring. Definitely worth the peace of mind.. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Jon & Stacey and Gertie will absolutely return to their care again!
Did your favorite team win the Super Bowl? Did you ever win big at the casino? Did you find a beautiful little being with 4 legs who you love to no end? Well, then you hit the jackpot! And, that’s what it felt like when I found Jon and Stacey…I hit the jackpot in dog sitters or, like I call them…my dog guardian angels! I am a lawyer and I am very particular as to whom I would let take care of my little furry family members. I haven’t used a dog sitter in years since my best friend did the job immaculately. Well, when I spoke with Jon and Stacey, I knew that they were the ones who I would chose to watch my little dogs. The surpassed all of my expectations. They are loving, compassionate, intelligent, thoughtful, and detailed-oriented guardians who not only care tremendously about giving your animals the best experience, they ensure that you feel secure and safe at all times. I immediately felt connected to both Jon and Stacey as did my dogs. Their little Abbey gets along with everyone so my dogs had an immediate new friend. They sent wonderful videos and pictures which confirmed that I chosen the best dog guardians as I could tell that my dogs were happy and safe. They don’t stop caring after your animals leave their care. They went beyond the call a duty when I needed their advice and help upon my return. I can’t even tell you how much they helped me. Stacey, being a retired Nurse Practitioner, has a wealth of knowledge and experience and Jon is intelligent and a rock when you need him. Clearly, I could go on and on. Simply put, you need not look anywhere else. These are your people. These are your animals’ people. These are my and my dogs' people!
Perfect choice for extra worried parents, as Jon and Stacey will do their best to make sure that dog is feeling comfortable and parents stay calm and stress least. Will definitely use their help again

Schedule
We are both retired and home full time. Your pup will receive a minimum of one walk per day. We are available for pick up and drop off if needed. We give lots of playtime to burn off that energy. :). We require a meet and greet before day care or boarding unless it is an emergency.
