LOVE above all, but much more too

Pet care experience

My husband and I love animals. We have two furry babies of our own, a playful Aussie and a loving Dachshund. While two dogs are great, we are always happy to have more! As long as your furry friend isn’t afraid of other dogs he or she will have a wonderful time playing with Nora (our aussie) and lounging with Lucinda (our Dachshund). My husband and I both work hybrid at the moment, so your pup will be with one or both of us at all times. Given our recent transition back to hybrid working (rather than at home) we will have limited availability on some days, but are happy to be as flexible as possible! Our apartment has a very large fully enclosed balcony with a patch of grass for the pups as well. We love to take the dogs on long walks in the three parks surrounding our home, and are happy to take them to the dog park as long as mom and dad are okay with it ;) We also spend a lot of time playing and cuddling with dogs, so if you want your pup to get lots of love look no further! We can administer oral medication if necessary and are happy to feed your pup as instructed. If you cook for your pup at home, we are happy to do the same while he or she stays with us for an additional fee. Finally, we can provide a doggy bath for dogs under 35lbs for an additional fee as well. For boarding and day care we only accept one pup at a time or two pups from the same family for the safety of all our furry babies. For walks, if your pup doesn’t enjoy the company of other dogs, we are more than happy to leave Nora and Lucinda home. When we are looking after your pup they will be with me or my husband at all times. We both work partially from home and are happy to find an arrangement that works for everyone! We kindly accept drop offs after 8:30am and pick-ups no later than 9pm unless otherwise agreed upon. Our home is fully dog proofed and includes a large fully enclosed balcony where the dogs are allowed to play and go to the bathroom (though we also take them on long walks and potty breaks outside). While in our care we will make sure your furry baby is safe, well taken care of and that he or she gets lots of love and cuddles!

So let me start this review off by saying: LIA IS AMAZING!!!! I rescued my dog Levi a little over a year ago and haven’t left his side since. So when I wanted to book an overnight trip, I panicked because I didn’t have someone to leave him with, and I also feared leaving him with someone (his previous family abandoned him). Luckily, I found Lia and she suggested we do a “Meet and Greet” first just to see how Levi got along with her girls. All went well but still just to confirm that Levi felt safe, I also scheduled a walk. Although I would only be away overnight, Levi being comfortable and safe was my upmost concern. Fortunately the walk went well so I continued on with the overnight boarding. Lia treated Levi as if he was her own; sending pictures and giving updates on his day every couple of hours. I could tell from the photos that he was enjoying himself. Seeing that, after confirming with Lia, I decided to extend my trip a few more hours. Levi also bonded with Lia’s husband; it is evident that they are TRUE dog lovers. Levi returned to me just as happy as he was when I dropped him off - that is a huge green flag for me!!! I will, without hesitation, use Lia again whether it be for dog walking or boarding. I heart is finally at peace knowing that I can book a trip and board Levi with such a loving, patient and flexible couple!!! THANK YOU SOOO MUCH LIA ♥️

Took great care of my dachshund when I was in Europe for 2 weeks. Her dogs are very friendly and Lia updates you frequently. Highly recommended.

Lia took exceptional care of our dog. She spent all day playing and came back exhausted. We'd send her back in a heartbeat :)

She took care of my baby & he returned to me safely. Felt comfort in leaving my puppy with her because she assured me she will update me with photos and she really did. My puppy being in safe hands is important to me so thank you!
