Puppy Playtime!

My partner and I have been dog sitting for over 7 years. We are incredibly enthusiastic, loving, and kind towards all animals. We love going on walks, and live in a very dog-friendly area. We hope you'll have your furry friend come stay with us! Kayla works full-time from home. Nothing is more fun for her than taking time to play with dogs throughout the day. It’s a stress reliever for her and fun for the both of us :) Vanessa is a former teacher and tutor, so her schedule is also fit for dog sitting! Attentiveness is the most important thing for us when with pets. In our home, we make sure that we can see the dog playing at all times. We put items away that are not dog-friendly and we recently purchased a house and set it up to have dog friendly rooms with space to play safely. On walks, the same applies. We are always attentive to the dog and how they feel, how they interact with other people and other dogs. Playing is fun, but we like to do it so that the dog and others are safe!

Kayla and Vanessa were wonderful hosts for our dog Cusco! They are super sweet and welcoming, and have lots of experience. They sent us cute photos the entire stay and Cusco looked very happy. Communication was topnotch--thorough and transparent. They really took the time to get to know Cusco's needs/schedule/personality. Peace of mind is priceless when it comes to care for our furry ones, and we definitely had that. 100% would rebook with them. Thank you ladies!!

We had an outstanding experience with Kayla and Vanessa. They went above and beyond in taking care of Oscar, and treated him like their own. 100% recommended, you couldn't find better sitters.

We were so fortunate to have Kayla and Vanessa take care of our two dogs. They went out of thier way to make sure that our dogs were comfortable and treated them with love and care. They communicated with us often to give us updates and lots of pictures. Vanessa even reached impressive step counts taking our dogs on long walks that our pups love so much. Would definitely reccommend!

Kayla was an amazing sitter. She was responsive and sent us pictures throughout the day. She even spent extra time and energy to help me fit my dog's huge crate into my car! Would definitely recommend.

They are the best! Was the first time that my baby was away from us and he had the best time ever! Kayla and Vanessa always sent pictures and we were really comfortable with all!

Safety, trust & environment

I have a partially fenced backyard which allows for lots of room to play with supervision or on long leads. Our downstairs is set up to acclimate doggy zoomies and play time with couches, open space and easy bathroom access since it is a walkout basement.

A typical day

Each day is different and we like to meet the dogs where they’re at. If they are high energy then we will play a lot and go for walks to work off some energy. For older or more sedentary dogs, we will have lots of extra cuddle time and make sure they are comfortable in a bed, a couch and have appropriate access to everything (such as dog stairs to the couch etc). We make sure your dog feels loved and attended to each and every day.
