Information Kaitlin & Verle D. would like to know about your pet

Let us know if your dog has any special needs: reactivity, triggers, or special accommodations that are needed. It's also helpful to know any commands that your dog knows. Verle is familiar with common English commands, Kaitlin with some common English and Spanish commands, but we would be happy to learn commands in other languages if you can provide a pronunciation guide.

A typical day

Each dog has its own needs, so we would love to get to know your dog and its needs. Some enjoy puzzle games, some long walks, while others just want to be by your side. We truly believe that owners know their dogs best and look forward to hearing from you about what your dog enjoys.

Perfect for Dogs with Extra Needs

Pet care experience

My husband and I cared for our dog-reactive dog for 11 years before her passing last January. Previously, we also took in my father's chihuahua-dachshund mix when he died and cared for her until she passed at 16 years old. We love meeting the needs of pets. For instance, we've previously laid down rugs so senior dogs could feel comfortable walking on hard surfaces and help them keep their grip when getting up. LGBTQIAS+ friendly.

I can’t recommend Kaitlin and Verle highly enough! We sent our anxious, escape artist pup Maxine to them for 2 weeks while we were abroad. They took her needs very seriously and sent updates daily. Very empathetic and genuinely sweet people to leave our fur baby with.

I had a last minute need for someone to watch and board my dog-reactive German Shepherd for a few hours while I had cleaners coming to clean my house this sitter was great, extremely communicative, arrived on time and took good care of my animal and I would definitely use their services again.

Such an amazing stay for our fur baby. They’re super caring folks who take wonderful care. Woody enjoyed his stay and I really appreciated their flexibility with a last minute schedule change.
