Highlights
Pet care experience
Your dog’s new best friend
We've been dog owners for many years, including caring for our senior boxer and helping with everything from daily meds to gentle exercise. We're attentive, calm, and genuinely enjoy being around dogs — whether it’s long walks, quiet cuddle time, or just making sure they feel safe and loved while you’re away. Our home is quiet and peaceful — perfect for dogs who need a slower pace, extra patience, or just a cozy spot to relax. We don’t currently have a dog of our own, so your pup will get our full attention, affection, and care. Every dog is different, and we're always happy to adapt to their needs and personality.

Ratings and reviews
Nicole and Joel took wonderful care of our big guy. Being a senior he was low energy but high maintenance, they took care of his eyes and wrinkles daily. From our 1st message they were prompt to reply and answer any questions. They offered a meet and greet prior to make sure we were all a good fit. While in their care they sent daily updates on his adventures including pictures. It was my 1st time ever leaving him with someone and I’m confident that he was well cared for . He especially enjoyed his time suntanning on their comfy sofa. I would recommend them to anyone looking for a lovely quiet home to board their pup.
Our dogs clearly enjoyed their week with Nicole and Joel! Highly recommended and will book with them again.
Nicole and Joel are lovely people who opened Sunny into their home with open arms. They took excellent care of her while we were gone, leaving us to enjoy our vacation and not worry about a thing. We got regular updates and photos and knew that Sunny was being very well cared for.
Nicole and Joel are awesome! They took excellent care of Sunny while she was there for the afternoon. She went on multiple walks, got treats, and even got to spend time with another dog.
Nicole and Joel were great with Isis. We met Nicole before leaving Isis with them to make sure everyone was comfortable which we really appreciated. They were communicative while we were away, sending updates and photos and we would definitely recommend them
Lenny loved his stay with Nicole & Joel, 100% will book with them again!

Schedule
Our schedule is very flexible. We are both self employed and can work from home or our studio in Leslieville. We make our own schedule which makes sitting and boarding much easier to organize and plan!

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
We don't currently have a dog in the home and although our yard is not fenced we have a large lawn for sitting and people watching (while leashed of course). We also live in a quiet neighbourhood with lots of parks and trails for great walks. We do have a medium sized crate in the event a dog needs to be crated.
A typical day
We'll get your dog comfortable with our home and check out all the new smells. We'll play with some toys and go for a walk to get to know each other better. We'll walk around the yard to get familiar with the area and have cute cuddles!
