Tailored Care for Every Pup – Let’s Make Their Stay Perfect! Your dog’s well-being, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. To ensure they have the best, stress-free experience, I’d love to know everything that makes them unique. Special Needs, Medical Considerations, or Dietary Restrictions? No problem! Let me know, and I’ll make sure their stay is safe, seamless, and perfectly suited to them. Quirky Habits, Favorite Toys, or Specific Routines? Whether they love a bedtime cuddle, need a specific walking pace, or have a favorite snack, I’ll make sure they feel completely at home. Anxious, High-Energy, or Senior Dogs? I specialize in customized care, adjusting activity levels and comfort to match each pup’s personality—whether that means extra adventure or extra snuggles. The more I know, the better I can tailor their VIP experience. Let’s chat to make sure your pup has the best, most enjoyable stay possible. Every Pup is Welcome, But Adventure-Loving Dogs Thrive Here! While I love caring for all friendly dogs, my services are especially ideal for active, high-energy breeds that love outdoor adventures. From spirited retrievers who thrive on hiking to agile terriers who love to explore, I enjoy working with dogs who share my passion for the outdoors. That said, whether your pup is a high-energy explorer or a laid-back cuddle buddy, I provide customized care to match their personality and needs. If your dog enjoys company, adventure, and personalized attention, they’ll feel right at home with me. House Rules – Potty Training & Behavior Expectations 1. Dogs must be non-reactive and safe around other animals and people. Safety is my top priority, and I only accept friendly, well-socialized dogs who can enjoy a stress-free stay. 2. All guests must be fully potty trained. While your pup will have plenty of outdoor opportunities for bathroom breaks during our adventures, frequent indoor accidents may result in additional cleaning fees. I understand that accidents can happen, especially in new environments, but to maintain a clean and comfortable space for all guests, I require owners to be upfront about their dog’s potty habits. If your pup has occasional accidents, let’s discuss a plan to make their stay successful!

A typical day

A Day in the Life of Your Pup’s Ultimate Adventure Morning Adventure: We start the day with an exciting outdoor hike, covering 3 to 12 km of scenic trails. Imagine your pup bounding through lush forests, exploring open fields, and discovering new scents—all while getting the exercise and mental stimulation they crave. Whether they love sprinting ahead, taking in the fresh air, or sniffing every blade of grass, this is their time to unleash their inner explorer. Midday Fun and Enrichment: After a thrilling morning, we continue the fun with interactive games, social time, and enrichment activities tailored to each dog’s needs. Whether it’s fetch, scent tracking, agility exercises, or just lounging in the sun, I ensure they get the perfect balance of play and rest. Evening Relaxation and Cozy Vibes: As the sun sets, we wind down with cuddles, belly rubs, and a peaceful night in a home-like environment. No kennels, no stress—just a warm, loving space where your pup can feel completely comfortable. After a full day of adventure, they will be ready for a cozy and restful sleep. Bonus: Throughout the day, you will receive high-quality photo and video updates of your pup’s adventures, so you never miss a moment of their fun. This is more than just pet sitting—it is a full-on adventure retreat for your pup. Limited spots available—message me now to book your pup’s VIP experience!

Joseph once again took very good care of Maggie and this time, our little guy Stanley too! He was super flexible with drop off and pick up times, sent us amazing photos of our fur babies on the trail, and they came back to us tuckered out, fed, bathed, clean and happy! Thank you for the quality of care and attention you give our little ones! We are so grateful for amazing sitters like you who provide such exceptional service.

Jospeh & his wife were fantastic dog sitters. They watched our golden retriever for 2 days, took him on hikes, sent us many photos & truly cared about the wellbeing of our dog. I would recommend choosing them to watch your pup!

Joseph, Andrea and family accommodated my very last minute boarding request for my golden Ellie. They were communicative and kind throughout. Ellie got to have lots of fun and adventure with pictures provided (great photographers too !). Highly recommend, 5 stars isn’t enough! Thanks so much again :)
