Love, play, and two walks a day!!

Pet care experience

******************************************** We are a family of dog & cat lovers. I have taken care of dogs ever since childhood, and my two girls have inherited my love for animals as well. I’ve owned & cared for all types of animals throughout the years - puppies, dogs, kittens, cats, guinea pigs, hamsters, birds, fish, and I have ridden horses since I was 5 years old. My girls especially love meeting new animals & we'd love to have your pet join our pack! I’m totally happy to do a free meet-and-greet anytime (and believe these are really important to make sure everyone’s a great fit for each other!). Just send a message and let's meet up!

Thank you, Margy and family, for caring for our beloved 4 legged girl dog! We have no doubt that Rosa was very well cared for and loved in our absence. We look forward to seeing you again really soon.

I had so much fun with Margy and her family! The human pups played and played and played! I got lots of nighttime snuggles and had fun performing my best behaved tricks for doggie cookies! My human mom said they sent lots of cute photos of me while they were away so they wouldn't miss me as much. I can't wait to go back to Margy's "doggie camp" again! ~Bandido

Safety, trust & environment

Our adorable home is on a private, fenced property. The backyard offers plenty of space to run and play, and the neighborhood connects easily to local walking trails and parks allowing for adventures close to home. Not only will your pup have the run of the house, but we even have a comfy dog bed and toys for those pets that prefer a quiet space of their own. We don't have any other pets at this time, so there will be no competition for human cuddles. We'll take your pup on 2 walks around our neighborhood each day in the morning or lunchtime, and again in the evening. We frequently visit nearby parks and can't wait to bring your pup on adventures with us. Thanks to our home-based work schedule, your pup will have company in our home most of the day. We’ll even bring your pup along when it makes sense when we leave the house (soccer practice, going to the park, etc) because dogs make everything better! Since we don't have any other pets at this time, there's no need to worry if your pup will get along with other animals. We keep a tidy home, so kids’ toys will be put away so they’re not mistaken for a fun new chew toy!

Information Margy & Mike B. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know everything about your pup - no detail is too small. Items such as medications, physical limitations, specific fears, typical feeding & potty schedules, bedtime routine, crate-training history, separation issues, and preferences are all incredibly important!

A typical day

Between our fenced-in backyard, our quiet neighborhood with lots of interesting streets, local walking trails and a town park right down the road, your pup will have lots of options for fun experiences! We’ll want to know your dog’s favorite games, of course, and we’ll include those throughout the day. Catch, fetch, exploring on long or short walks, and more can all be added to your pet’s daily activity schedule!

Your dog will have plenty of attention while staying at our home. For pooches staying at their own homes, we can do lunchtime and evening walking and drop-in visits in the Lamorinda area. If we need to leave the house for an errand or similar, we’ll make sure your pup is settled, calm and happy before heading out. Our goal is to make your pup feel at home and fully cared for the same way you do!
