Dog loving home, on 2 acres.

Pet care experience

We are a family of 4 with kids ages 8 and 11 who have always had dogs around. After having to put our own family dog down, we were missing the companionship, routine, and unconditional love that we shared, but were not ready to raise a new dog of our own full-time. Having used Rover for our own boarding needs, it motivated us to sign up and has provided our family with a unique experience to welcome a variety of dogs into our home and create bonds with many furry friends. We have a 2 acre yard in rural Kanata with plenty of space for dogs to roam. We enjoy off leash walking but also provide on leash if that’s your dogs routine. We can provide multiple walks daily, and will cater to the energy level and current routine of dogs/owners.

Breton stayed with Giulia and family for a week recently while we were on holiday. This was our second time he stayed with them while we were away. He came home, happy and healthy:) they provided us with updates and pictures and we know he was being careful just like home . We would not hesitate to use Michael and Giulia again.

I would give 10 stars if it was an option. Mike and Guilia are amazing dog sitters, we met with them for a meet and greet prior to our trip and you could tell they genuinely love dogs. We kept in touch the whole trip, they sent us pictures and updates daily. Our dogs could not have been happier and this was their first time being babysat. They have a nice big house with a huge yard, they walked and played outside daily with our babies. Will definitely be using them for all of our upcoming trips. I Cannot stress this enough.. Highly Recommend. Your pets will thank you :)

Chip our 10 month old Golden was well taken care of, they were very accommodating taking chip for the day with less then 24hrs notice, updates were given and we didn't have to ask for them which is very important to us, we would definitely take Chip to Michael and Giulia again :) Thank you for taking good care of our fur baby.

Michael and Giulia are absolutely lovely and our dogs were in excellent hands. We appreciated the updates and photos of our dogs playing with the kids outside (first big snowfall!) and being spoiled with snuggles. We wouldn't hesitate to leave our dogs in their care again.
