Thank you to Nicholas and his family for taking very good care of Butters! She enjoyed her stay hanging out with their kiddos!! Nicholas was easy to communicate with and we highly recommend. We’re already rebooked!

Thank you for taking such good care of our shy boy!

As always, you were amazing. Thank you guys so much.

They were very kind and flexible with our travel plans. They sent photos of the dogs and they seemed to have had a great time.


Very grateful I was able to find a wonderful sitter last minute.

Nicolas and his family watched our 2 high energy dogs for the first time. They did such a great job, followed our typical schedule and gave us updates. I could tell they truly cared for them like they were their own. I will be rebooking in the future.

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
As a former military detection dog handler turned devoted dog dad, I combine professional structure with genuine love and patience. Whether it’s boarding, walks, or drop-ins, I tailor each experience to meet every pup’s needs — ensuring safety, comfort, and plenty of play. With me, your furry family member gets structured and loving care wrapped in warmth, snuggles, and happy tail wags.

A typical day
love keeping pets active and happy! We’ll go on walks, play fetch, enjoy brain games, and have cuddle breaks. For pups who love routine, I mix structure with fun — from treat puzzles to gentle training refreshers, every moment is full of joy and engagement.
