Hello and welcome! Please read full profile for more info 😊: Need a home type setting for your dog while you are away? We offer peace of mind dog boarding to make your pet feel at home while you are away. We are a family with a two young kids and two older dog of our own. I am very fortunate to work part time from home while raising our kids , which gives me full time availability with your furry pet during their stay with us. We have a large fenced yard that backs on to green space and our dogs get walked twice daily. My husband and I both grew up in dog loving homes in rural Alberta. We understand how hard it can be to leave your furry family members behind when you can’t take them along. I also offer text and picture updates to anyone who wishes to have them sent to them during their pets stay with us . Feel free to contact me anytime for more information. Please do note: At this time we are not taking in pups under two years of age . I leave my calendar as open as possible so please just inquire about which days or nights you need your poochie cared for and we can chat and book from there . I do ask to do a meet and greet before committing to any overnight boarding which will give you a a good idea of where your pet will be staying and it gives us a chance to see if your pet is a good fit for us for extended stays . Please call or message me with any questions and we look forward to meeting you and your pet!

I cannot say enough good things about Livia and her family! From the moment I met her, I knew my dog was in great hands. She went above and beyond to make sure my pup felt comfortable and loved while I was away. It was clear that she truly cares for animals—she treated my dog like she was her own. Daily updates with photos and videos made it easy to see how much fun they were having together. My dog was happy, calm, and well-cared for when I returned, and I couldn't have asked for a better experience. I highly recommend to anyone looking for a sitter who treats their pets like family!

Excellent experience! Got daily pics and updates on our dogs. Dogs came home happy and content! Livia also was kind enough to administer one dogs daily medications. Using this service and Livia in particular was the best decision we have made regarding care of our dogs while away. Highly recommend!!

Livia was an amazing host for Dozer. She welcomed him into her home as one of her own. So warm and joyful, just an all around great experience for Dozer and I. Updates throughout his stay where an added bonus to put your mind at ease while your pet is away from home. 10/10 recommended!

Livia is one of the most caring people I have ever met. She loves & cares for her fur babies just as well as she does her human baby! She spends ample time outside, playing and exploring with her pups, she has a large yard but she often takes them to different places to play aswell. She is very easy going, pays great attention to detail & is super responsible. Leaving your furry friends in her care will be an easy choice & one you won’t regret.
