Weekend Doggy Getaway 🐶🐾
I'm Toby's dog dad—a Golden Retriever trained to near-service-dog standards. That taught me how to read a dog's body language, earn trust fast, and lead with calm, steady energy. Confident or shy, your pup gets the same patient care I give Toby every day. 💛

Ratings and reviews
We are extremely happy with the care and service Max provided! He took such great care of Kion, kept us updated with lots of pictures and videos, and made sure Kion got plenty of walks and attention. It was wonderful to see how much fun Kion had playing with Toby. ❤️ We felt completely comfortable knowing Kion was in such good hands. Thank you so much for taking care of him and making his stay so happy and enjoyable. We would definitely recommend service and will happily book again!
Max took care of our dog while we went on a 2-day trip. He sent us pictures and videos multiple times a day, graciously took her on a walk three times a day (more than we asked for), and also fed her pumpkin puree when he saw soft stool. He took care of my dog better than I did! Thanks Max again!!

Max was great, he took care of my puppy like his own. He kept sharing a lot of photos and videos with regular updates. My puppy had a great time playing with his adorable dog Toby! Will definitely consider booking again!

Max, his wife, and Toby are great. He was flexible with our pickup and drop off times, and was willing to do a meet and greet for our dogs prior to the booking. Max made sure to ask us about our dog's needs and schedules so that he could ensure a comfortable stay. He was communicative throughout the stay, sent updates and photos. He seems very dog savvy and I felt comfortable with him as our sitter from the get go. We would definitely book with Max again - highly recommend!

Jupiter had a great time staying with Max and Toby!

Max was great with my dog! He made me feel comfortable, and Toby is such a sweet, friendly dog. My pup came home happy, and I really appreciated the care and attention. I'd definitely recommend Max! 🐾😊

Schedule
Your weekend getaway is your pup's getaway too. 🐾 Weekends are all I do—so your dog gets my full attention, not leftover time squeezed around a workday. 🦴 Friday: late afternoon onward 🦴 Saturday & Sunday: all day into the evening Perfect for a weekend trip or a single overnight. Reach out and let's see if our dates line up!
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
The main attraction: a private, fully-fenced backyard with a grassy lawn to run on, shade trees for cool rest, and a dog cot for lounging. 🌳 It's Toby's favorite place, and your pup is welcome to make it theirs. Inside, my home is tidy and hazard-free. I supervise closely, follow your dog's routine, and send photo updates throughout the stay. I just ask that guests be current on flea/tick prevention and core vaccines (Rabies, DHPP, Bordetella).
Pets
A typical day
Mornings open with a walk, then grass play—fetch, tug, and zoomies in the sunshine. 🎾 When it heats up, there's shade or a cot to cool off on, plus enrichment toys and a quick training refresher. Afternoons are for naps and cuddles. We wrap up with an evening stroll, dinner, and a calm bedtime—so your dog winds down happy and tired. 😴

- Every stay starts with a quick Meet & Greet so your dog and Toby can say hello and make sure it's a great match. 🐶 Just give me a heads-up about any special needs, medications, or quirks—the more I know, the smoother the stay. My goal: a tail-wagging weekend your pup will be excited to come back to!
