Pet care experience

I have taken care of pups (and the occasional cat(s)) for about 5 years+ and I have owned and cared for dogs all my life. Currently, my husband and I together are parents of three (3) rescue Pups Ivy, Tinkerbell, and scrappy and one (1) human toddler, Elliot. Together we make an awesome team and make sure the dogs that visit us are well taken care of and all their needs are met. You can expect your pup to lounge or play all day and always have a hand to scratch their bellies. We are able to administer oral medications if needed and are usually pretty flexible for all other accommodations. Please feel free to reach out with any questions and we hope to meet you one day!

Sweetest family ever! My Pomeranian Jack always has a great time and I’m calm that he’s being very well looked after! Very communicative, adaptive and caring! Always appreciate her!

Mirka was a great sitter. This was my first time ever hiring a dog sitter and I was so nervous. But Mirka made me feel really at ease to have her dog sit. She sent me pictures throughout the stay and even video called me so I could see my dog. She made my dog feel like family. I would definitely recommend her to anyone who needed a dog sitter. She was absolutely wonderful and I would definitely use her again and again!!

Let me know if your dog has any special needs or behaviors that I can account for. We can usually accommodate most needs, but it can be discussed further during our meet and greet.

Availability

My husband and I currently work remotely and occasionally go into the office in-person. When your dog boards with us you can expect them to be walked a minimum of three (3) times a day, sometimes 4. They will be well loved and cared for, and I ensure always to send an updated photo of them every day so you can travel calmly and not have to worry. Feeding guidelines will be instructed by you (owner/pet parent).
