Safety, trust & environment

During the week, I work from home, allowing the pups plenty of opportunities to head outside for potty breaks. Calvin and visiting pups can usually be found on my lap or at my feet while I’m working away at my desk in the home office….Or any of the other seven dog beds in the house. Their choice! 😀 On the weekend, I may venture out for a few hours, but home in time for snacks, a potty break, and belly rubs.

Information Nickolas J. would like to know about your pet

Knowing about your pup’s food, medication, and bathroom needs will be most helpful. Of course, we love to know more about their special toys and sweet spots for scratches! :)

A typical day

We are a home for lazy pets with light exercise needs. All kidding aside, we are a low-key home, best for around the clock cuddles.

Best Home for Lazy Dogs

Pet care experience

If you’re looking for a laid back home for senior and/or lazy dogs, you’ve found the right place! Calvin, our 18 year old chihuahua, is usually found napping, eating, or snacking on treats in our house. Our vet has lovingly titled him a “pampered pooch” - and we must agree! Our weekends are usually lounging around the house, watching Disney+, baking cookies, and heading outside several times a day. We aren’t a “dog park for 3+ hours a day” kind of home. Senior dogs would enjoy a weekend getaway to our home, though, all are welcome!

Nick, thank you for taking such good care of Winston. We really appreciate having you care for our little guy in the comfort of his home vs having to be boarded. Thanks again!
