I think that our dogs had a better vacation than we did! Maria and Matt were very much involved with our dogs and their needs and shared lots of photos with us of the walks that they went on. It was a great relief to know that our dogs were well cared for while we were away.

Safety, trust & environment

Our home is calm, clean, and pet-friendly. We have a fully fenced yard with cameras so dogs can play safely, and we’re always close by keeping an eye on them. If a pet needs their own space to feel comfortable, we have a separate area ready for that. We make sure every pet feels secure, relaxed, and cared for during their stay.

Pets

A typical day

Our days are pretty relaxed. We start outside in the fenced yard so they can sniff around, play, and ease into the day. In the afternoon we go for a 30-minute walk, and depending on the dog’s energy, we also take them to the dog park so they can burn energy and socialize. Meals are given exactly on the schedule you tell me. During the day they hang out with us, play with toys, or nap wherever they feel comfortable. We let them choose their favorite spot, and most of them end up sleeping on our couches. They get attention and affection all day so they feel safe, calm, and at home.

Before the stay, I like to know their routine, how they eat, what they enjoy, and anything that makes them feel comfortable. It also helps if you tell me about any meds, health needs, or little quirks they might have, like being nervous with new dogs or not liking loud noises. The more I know, the easier it is for me to keep their routine and make sure they feel safe, relaxed, and happy while they’re here.
