Highlights
Pet care experience
Your Best Substitute Pet Papa
After my wife and I bought our first home together, we adopted our first shelter dog, a shepherd husky mix named Roxy. Later we became a doodle household. We've laughed during puppy play and shed tears at the rainbow bridge. We've enjoyed how dogs mellow with age and medicated fur babies dealing with lymphoma and lung cancer.
Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
Great spot for Max to be while we were away. Kent is kind and knowledgeable about the pups. Terrific communication. I felt mamas was in a safe and loving environment. 5 Stars.
We felt very reassured that Osler was in capable hands during his stay. Kent is very knowledgeable about pet care and cares a great deal about them. Our dog is older and is timid, but acclimated to Kent’s pack very well. We would not hesitate to have Kent care for Osler for longer periods of time in the future.
Kent sent regular updates and took great care of Loki. Loki had plenty of playtime with Kent and his dogs. He was flexible to accommodate extra days as well.
Kent has been a good cat and dog sitter for our neighbors for so many years. He walks our dogs one by one every night and feeds them twice a day giving them their medications, vitamin supplements and brushes their teeth with enzyme toothpaste on a daily basis. Dogs prefer to be around him more. He keeps my dogs safe and he loves them as much as family means to him.

Schedule
If you choose to book with us, your best friend will be our only guest while you're away. Our three friendly doodles will offer congenial pack hospitality. We'll welcome your dog with care and attention for a temporary family member. You get a substitute Pet Papa, and I get to spend time with your buddy, while earning a little extra income for gardening supplies and painting classes. It’s a Win-Win.
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
Only one dog at a time for boarding and day care. We have a large, dog safe yard in a quiet gated community. We border open space. Since rabbits and squirrels sometimes visit, I suggest you include Leptospirosis in your updated vaccination portfolio.
Pets
A typical day
We have an abundant supply of fetch and tug toys. Our youngest, Coco, is always up for a game of chase. On hot Brentwood days, we welcome the crew to cool off in a splash pad. After the activity we have comfortable spots for lounging and snuggling.

- Knowing your best friend's skills, temperament and needs helps me maintain continuity with the care you provide at home. Does your dog know particular commands or rituals around walking, eating and potty breaks? Do we need to give medications during the stay? Will flea / heartworm treatment become due? What about daily or weekly teeth or ear cleaning?
