Nathan and Paula took such great care of our dog. They would send pics everyday and update us on how he was doing. They are so sweet and I definitely recommend them and will continue to use them. Thanks again!

Friendly, sweet and took care of my dog the way I would’ve hoped. Sent several cute photos of them playing in their beautiful home. Highly recommended!

Nathan, Paula and their family couldn’t be better in any way. I am so genuinely happy and grateful for them! Sasha stayed with Nate and Paula for 8 days and had a literal blast. Walking twice a day wasn’t just a stroll or poddy break- Sasha got to go to the park and the back bay, get real exercise that she needs and have FUN exploring and playing. I can always tell by Sasha’s tongue and smile how she’s feeling; and, whether she was resting in their backyard, having fun with the kids, or on a walk with either Nate or Paula Sasha literally looked like she was having the time of her life…after 7 1/2 years of raising her I could tell that she was literally on a vacation. I got pictures and updates twice a day that included how Sasha was feeling and what she was doing. Sasha was well entrusted, and I could feel at ease about her safety and the knowledge of Nate and Paula about what was best for Sasha. Their attention to detail and their genuine care is so clear. Nate and Paula are warm and animal lovers, who keep a light positive energy that also means a lot overall in today’s busy world.

Nathan and Paula were amazing! Were were out of town for a little over a week and felt so great knowing our two dogs were in such great hands! They kept us updated and took our boys on lots of fun adventures. Even a few days after picking them up, they are still tired from all of the fun! Highly recommend and will 10000% be rebooking with this family!

Schedule

We both work from home and have time throughout the day to take dogs for walks at the Back Bay or around the neighborhood. We both get up early around 5am daily and can attend to your dog’s needs first thing if need be. Our large, fenced backyard is always available for your dog(s) to play, rest or lounge throughout the day. Our two daughters also love dogs and will certainly enjoy spending time playing with them.

Safety, trust & environment

Our fenced back yard offers plenty of space for your fur baby. Our mud room, which was a new addition as part of our re-model, is connected to the backyard and is where we will house your dog overnight (our preference). However, we are flexible with dogs sleeping in our house if they are well behaved.

A typical day

We love getting to know your dog by interacting and playing with them in our backyard. We will also take them on walks around the neighborhood and at the beautiful Back Bay trails just a short walk from our house. There’s also a big park just few blocks away that is great for playing fetch and meeting other dogs that love the open space. If your dog enjoys long runs, I'm more than happy to take them with me on 3 - 4 mile runs at the back bay and have done this with a fair share of visiting dogs so far. If your dog is high- energy and has good stamina, then these runs are a great option.
