Pet care experience
Hey there! My name is Lovie. My partner Christopher & I have experience with a wide array of pooches & cats whom have visited our home. I've had my hand in personal experience with animals for over 10 years as I've worked in doggy daycares & have a background of training. Christopher also has training under his belt along with constant doggo exercise he provides for the more active type of dog. Please be aware that we are working people, we have jobs that can vary from 7am to 5pm. If you know you have a high maintenance pet please be aware of this before booking. We provide flexible services as much as possible as we know times are hard- & we appreciate that you do the same! We want to make the stay as comfortable as possible, so of course they can have a vacation too! Those who are in their golden years, or babies that are new to the world it doesn't matter! We have experience for that sliding scale of age. Their comfort is important when being away from home so we rely on you to tell us everything we need to know to make that possible. Although they have the best time here with us we still make sure they have manners while they are with us as we like to have organization. We take pride in what we do- They are family too ◄We require vaccines for your dog/cat before boarding for the safety of other pets. ◄Please give your pet the necessary care of bathing & nail trims before boarding. ◄If you know your dates ahead of time PLEASE BOOK EARLY

Bones really enjoyed Lovie and Christopher!
Lovie was such a great host for my dog and I plan on continuing to work with her in the future. She made sure to ask great questions about my dog prior to the stay, gave plenty of attention, send lots of photos and videos throughout the stay, and went above and beyond.
Lovie was such an amazing sitter. She was able to look after my pup and cat on short notice. I booked her to housesit and couldn’t be more pleased. She came over and introduced herself and got to know Piper and Soskei before I left and kept me updated with pics and videos all week. When I got home I found the place spotless and both pets well fed and happy. Can’t recommend enough!

Safety, trust & environment
◄Boarding dogs are active from 6am to 10pm. We have constant walks & playtime throughout the day at the park or inside the home (Weather permitting). ◄Feeding is separate for every dog to keep any problems from happening between others while eating- even if they are not food aggressive, new behaviors can come up when around other dogs & new environments. ◄Housesitting dogs will have what they need instructed by pet parents at what time they need to be fed, walked, entertained, or given medication. The place will be clean upon us leaving. One of us is always there if we both don't have work.

Information Lovie S. would like to know about your pet
These are the things we really NEED to know when you have a pet with us: ►If your dog isn’t crate trained can they behave if we leave the home? ►Does your dog get along with others? Are they food aggressive? ►Are they leash aggressive? Collar shy? Destructive behaviors when alone? ►Do they have anxiety? Do they need a crate when left alone? ►Does your dog get along with cats? We own one so that's important to know for us.
A typical day
We love to stimulate the dogs with play at home or in bigger social activities at the park or on a walk around other dogs. Please bring your own items for your loved one as currently we don't own any community kongs or toys. We make sure they take much needed breaks & take the time to rest in the intervals that they need. If they get too rowdy we take the time to give them a time out of the craziness to calm down.

Availability
As we work different schedules it is convenient for us to have late night drop off's or early morning. We do ask for specific times of drop off or pick-up's that way we know who needs to be home for that exchange. The house shuts down at 10pm unless we say otherwise for a special event or occasion for a special pick-up or drop off.
