Highlights
Pet care experience
Walks, Snuggles & Peace of Mind 🐶❤
We lost our sweet angel, Presta, in 2025 after having her for 11 years. We are not ready for another dog of our own but look forward to showering your dog with affection, a regular routine, and worry-free care while you're away.

Ratings and reviews
Their home has become our dog’s second home. She is so happy and comfortable there 🥰
Once again our senior pup had a wonderful stay with James and Lauren. They also went above and beyond when a medical issue re-emerged unexpectedly (thankfully not serious). We appreciated the regular updates about all the fun she was having!

Lauren and James were phenomenal! Spent good time with my dog and send updated photos and videos. Very loving couple. I would recommend them if you are in a need for boarding.

Absolutely wonderfull. I didn’t worry at all about the dogs, they were in such good hands. We will definitely be back.

Absolutely wonderful. They took such good care of two senior dogs. I absolutely recommend them. ❤️🥰. I will be a repeat customer.

We felt 100% comfortable with Lauren and James taking care of Chloe. From the videos and pictures, it looks like Chloe had a great time with them and we would definitely like to book future stays with them!

- A meet & greet and proof of current vaccinations are required prior to accepting a booking. Because we only accept one booking at a time and do not have children or other pets, we can easily cater to dogs that do well in as the solo pet in an environment of just adults. Our former dog was dog-reactive so we also have a level of comfort managing that type of behavior. Dogs do need to be able to be kenneled when we are away.
- These prices are for 1 dog.
