A Happy Home Away From Home

Pet care experience

Hi! Welcome to our home 🐾 If you need a home for your furry friend while you’re away, where they’ll be treated as part of our family, with daily walks to the playground, playtime, and snuggles on the couch (or floor) during story time, then we are a perfect match. I have always been totally obsessed with animals (especially dogs and little cuties like cats, bunnies, and chickens) but as a family we’re not quite ready to have our own pet just yet. And since we don’t have any pets of our own, your pup will most likely be the only furry friend during his/her stay. I have 2 boys, and together we have participated in a pets program at a local animal shelter, deep diving about animal care, sheltering, adoption, and more. The week-long program at our local animal shelter, thought us about veterinary care, animal behavior, training, and overall pet wellness. It was a great experience and gave my children (8 and 9) even more confidence to be around someone else's pet. Since I'm a stay-at-home, finishing my finance degree online, there will be plenty of potty breaks and playtime. I'm not away often, only for errands or pick up my kids from sports, classes etc. I also go on nature walks when the weather is nice, so it will be nice to have a pawfriend with me :) Whether your pawfriend wants to cuddle in our couch, play fetch or just relax on its own, your fur friend will be treated as part of our family.

Very reliable and easy going with my 2 little pups. They can be a handful but she was very understanding.

Tucker had a great day at Kathilin’s house. She and her adorable boys tired out my busy dog! Thank you so much. I will connect again for another play date!

A pet fits really well into our family’s routine. Our family lives in a single family home with lots of windows for your pup to watch squirrel/rabbits/birds outside. As we are always home, everyone gets daily walks and plenty of time for play, snuggles. My kids love animals and are gentle and involved, so your pet will get a lot of attention and love throughout the day, while also respecting their personality. Caring for pets is something we truly enjoyed would love to make it as part of our everyday life!
