La vie de famille pour votre toutou
"Un bon husky est un husky fatigué", voici ce qu'on nous a dit lorsqu'on a adopté notre chien... ce qui s'applique finalement à tous les toutous, surtout les plus énergiques. Après avoir été famille d'accueil d'un chiot de service (au Québec, via l'organisme Mira, qui "équipe" les personnes en situation de handicap d'un chien d'assistance), nous avons donc adopté notre husky chéri en 2016. Et nous nous sommes appliqués à le rendre très heureux ! Depuis, nous avons gardé des chiens via Rover, alors que nous vivions aux USA. Installés à Venerque en famille désormais, nous avons le plaisir d'accueillir de nouveau des copains chiens à qui nous faisons vivre notre vie de famille ! Toujours en se disant qu'un bon chien est un chien fatigué donc... chemin jusqu'à l'école, promenades plus sportives et gratouilles à prévoir !! Nous avons un enfant de 4 ans, un chat et notre chien de bientôt 10 ans, un brin grognon, qui a besoin de sa bulle. Nous aurions hélas du mal à répondre aux besoins d'un chien surexcité, non dressé ou agressif envers les enfants et les chats. À bientôt ! My husband and I believe a good husky is a tired husky - and we guess it works for every kind of dog. So we make sure our dog has enough active time, fun with humans, socialization with other dogs, time to smell everywhere, nice grat-grat massages and also try to make him resolve problems (how to catch the treat into something, feeling he has to "hunt" the treat). We'll do the same with your dog. With my husband, we try to walk, play at the dog park, run or bike with my dog 2 to 3 hours a day. We commit doing the same with your dog as if he was ours: fun time, mind and physical activities, safe rest also and a lot of love. Our dog is a bit grumpy, not aggressive but he needs his bubble... so not a good fit with puppy energy unfortunately!

Ratings and reviews
Our dog Blizzard had such a great time staying with Julie. They took him for several runs, bike rides, and trips to the dog park and we came home to a very tired pup which is always great! Blizzard also enjoyed playing with her husky Wapta. Julie is very responsive and sent us a lot of funny photos while we were out of town which gave us total peace of mind. We will definitely be using Julie in the future!
Julie, her husband and Wapta are so great with Semilla. She loves them so much. Julie is great with photo updates and keeping your mind at ease !
We left our beloved Boxer with Julie over the weekend while we attended a wedding. It was our first time using this service and we are very impressed! Julie sent us picture updates regularly and took our dog on walks every day she had her (3 days, 2 nights). Now she's home and completely tuckered out. We would defintely recommend Julie to anyone looking for a great dog sitter!
Julie was great with my dog Kelso. I got many photos and it was easy to tell Kelso was having a blast. Thanks!
Julie was wonderful about checking in and sending pictures throughout the day!
Kiki had so much fun with Julie, she was a happy and tired pup when I took her home :) Julie was great about communicating and took and shared great photos during Kiki's stay with her.

Schedule
Les chiens nous accompagnent dans nos déplacements et sports à pied et à vélo (récurrents), nous sommes une famille qui a besoin de sa dose de plein air quotidienne. Nous préférons garder un seul chien (en plus du nôtre) en semaine, nous pouvons exceptionnellement augmenter en week-end. With the experience, we realized that we prefer to host just one pet at the time (+ our dog). Occasionally, we can increase for the weekend.

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
Le jardin est cloturé, mais les chiens nous suivent souvent (dehors, dedans, etc.). Hors de question de considérer le jardin comme le seul moyen de prendre l'air, nous sortons. Si vous êtes confiants (et nous aussi!), nous pourrons aller sur des chemins où la laisse n'est pas obligatoire... on s'en parle :). The garden is fenced, but most of the dogs just follow us in the house, and specially appreciate the office's sofa (pet friendly) to watch me working! We try to save the living room sofa free of fur and mud, not always a success. We are used to bring our dog(s) where ever we are going, they live our family life as a member!

A typical day
Début de la journée en chemin vers l'école. Une fois le "colis" déposé, c'est parti pour une longue promenade, ou un petit jogging dans les côteaux. Retour à la maison, travail pour les humains, repos pour les chiens. On s'aère aussi à midi, petite pause en laisse. Rebelote le soir (école, promenade, etc). On weekdays, we always start the day by a morning walk, mostly at Dakota Ridge, for about 1h hiking (off leash trained dogs are the happiest there). Sometimes, depending on the dog we host, weather and our schedule, my husband enjoy a bike ride with the dogs, to let all the extra energy out. Then, when cooled down, feeding and relax inside or outside. If weather cooperate, we take an outside break at lunch. Then we go out again after work, for dog park, hike, walk, play, whatever !
