Full-time care for just your pups!

Pet care experience

We are a dog-adoring couple who have worked with over 100 dogs in the course of over 5 years in roles as boarders, fosterers, house sitters, and professional dogs walkers. So we can give your pet all the attention it deserves, we only post availability when we know one of us will be available for an extended time. We are currently only available as house/pet sitters in your home so that one of us can stay back home with our own elderly dogs. Each visit of under eight hours will include at least one 30 minute walk, anything beyond that will include an hour walk or two 30 minute walks, in addition to pee and poo breaks. We keep doggie doo bags, organic treats, and dog toys on hand. Note that we will always keep dogs on leash, even in off-leash parks. We especially welcome dogs with special health needs (which we have a lot of experience with) or those who would not do well in settings with children or other animals. Thanks for looking!

Kelly was amazing! Had a last minute holiday trip and saw the positive reviews and was able to schedule within 2 hours for a 4 day stay. We received regular updates and photos, our little girl was happy as ever!

So glad to have found such wonderful dog lovers. Took excellent care of my pooch and I am so grateful. They are also talented dog photographers; took better pics of my puppy than I’ve ever been able to take. Haha. Thanks so much.

Realized I never reviewed this particular stay a year ago. Kelly was awesome with ROMA. I went overseas and was worried about how she would do over such a long stay. She seemed at ease coming back to stay with Kelly (she had a prior stay) and seemed at ease when I picked her up. Kelly sent me updates and kept great care of her.:)

Let us know if your pup has any special needs or behaviors, and any issues that came up in prior pet-care environments. Please also let us know if it has any dietary restrictions.

We love to take pups to Rosie's Dog Beach (though, always on leash) and for walks to explore the neighborhood. We will often bring pups with us on excursions for outdoor dining and cafes if we're certain they'll be comfortable in those environments.
