Information Josh & Susan T. would like to know about your pet

We always try to get a feel for our guests personalities, temperament, and daily activities so we can do our best to mirror what they are used to. Dogs are highly adaptive, but we understand the shock of change and we try to mitigate that as best we can.

A typical day

Living near the St. Charles River Trail provides access to fun, safe, and any distance walk needed for just the right amount of exercise for your four-legged (Or less) companion. Is your dog not a fan of walks? Instead our fully enclosed modern zen garden provides countless tosses of the tennis ball, sun lounging, or even romping with the other resident k9's!

Professional pet service providers!

Pet care experience

We provide a combined 50 years of hands-on experience raising fur babies of all types. From cats, dogs, ferrets, rats and mice there is no end to the joy and companionship that we have been fortunate enough to share with our little ones throughout the years. Now let us share our experience with your favorite pet! We engage in many thrilling walks, games, massage sessions, and sing-alongs an a weekly basis in our home. We have experience with puppies, middle aged, senior and special needs dogs. One of our former little men was diagnosed with Mega esophagus, which Covid provided a means to not only understand but to learn to overcome on a daily basis. He was under 10 pounds and had a special chair that he would be more than willing to share with others of his particular disorder. Let our home be a welcome "Home away from home" experience for your favorite pet!

Our family was very pleased with the care our dog received from Susan and Josh. Walks, yard time, medicine distribution, and daily pictures and updates made us feel comfortable. Both Susan and Josh seem to love and care about the pets they watch as their own! I highly recommend booking with them if you want a worry free get away! We will be back!

Josh is fantastic. Very professional. Was very patient with my dog when she was a little unsure of him.
