UPDATE: unfortunately due to a large number of bookings showing up hours & hours late we now have to add a $20 late fee if you are more than 30 minutes late dropping off your dog or 30 minutes late picking up your dog. This is because we run a tight schedule throughout our days, running meet and greets and so on. Due to the respect of our time and yours we would like to have a consistent schedule where we have adequate time for drop offs, pick ups and meet and greets. I.e if you are 30 minutes late picking up your dog, we may have scheduled a meet and greet for that time and then suddenly the house is too busy and chaotic. We hope you understand. UPDATE ON MEET AND GREETS: we now have to limit these to 10 minutes, if you would like longer we ask you book in for a 30minute drop in visit. We are beginning to book out fairly far in advance. If you are an existing client and the date shows as unavailable please go ahead and send a request through anyway as we may have the dates booked out for existing clients. We can't guarantee we will accept new clients. We have trained and worked with dogs for over 20 years. We currently own a Dutch Shepard and a Chihuahua mix. We have previously worked with and/or owned Beagles, Miniature Chihuahuas, Dachunds, German Shepards, Labradors, Cocker Spaniels, Boykin Spaniels, Retrievers, Shih Tzus, Bichon Frisés, Jack Russels, Huskies and Chows. We are always excited to meet and love on new pets and get to know and enjoy their unique personalities.
Reviews
Matt has been a life saver! I had a tragic death in my family and had to leave town within 24 hours notice. Matt was available and was even able to keep him longer than we expected. He sent videos and kept me updated on him almost daily. I will definitely use Matt again if he's available.
Willie must have had a good time. We dropped him off healthy and he was the same when we picked him up. Matt was personable, polite and obviously a dog lover. Can't wait to book him again.
Matt took great care of our Teddy! Communication was easy and drop off/pick up was super easy as well!
Matt J. cancelled a booking within a day of the start date.

Safety, trust & environment
Our home is very pet friendly, we have a large fenced in backyard with a very high fence (raised so our Dutchy could no longer jump it) where we can keep your pups safe whilst we play. We have ample time each day for drop in visits and walks.

A typical day
We love to keep dogs active, we live in a great neighborhood with lots of grass. We go for walks down a lane and have a huge park nearby. Our own dogs practice their training daily. Our Chihuahua is working on 'Shake' and your pups are welcome to try it too. When not active the dogs can snooze on the couch or if little they can snooze on Lous lap whilst she works on her laptop.
