Information Nitzan S. would like to know about your pet

Please let us know your dog’s temperament, routines, or any anxieties up front—whether they’re shy, energetic, or have favorite toys or quirks. We want your pup to feel safe, seen, and comfortable in our home. We’re best suited for small to medium-sized dogs who enjoy a slower-paced, homey environment.

A typical day

Your dog’s day will start with a walk during school drop-off, followed by relaxed time at home with us. We take breaks throughout the day for backyard play and walks. In the afternoon, they’ll join us for another stroll to school and wind down with cuddles and quiet time at home. If your pup loves fetch, snuggling on the couch, or watching the world go by from the window, we’ve got it covered.

Pet care experience

We’re a warm, dog-loving family in East Arlington offering a cozy, calm home for dogs to stay. We’ve cared for family and friends’ pets for years, and our 8-year-old daughter Ella is a gentle animal lover who loves joining in walks and cuddles. We work from home, have a fenced backyard, and host just one household at a time so your pup gets full attention. Whether your dog loves to play, lounge, or stick to a routine, we’re ready to make them feel at home!

Vinny had a nice stay with Nitzan and family. I left him with them for a week, and he was well taken care of. He was anxious when I dropped him off, but happy and calm when I picked him up. I could tell he really bonded with their kids and vice versa. :)

They were very attentive and responsive from the very first contact, which immediately made me feel more at ease — especially since my dog can be quite anxious. They did everything they could to accommodate Lia and also my concerns, which meant a lot. The whole family is very kind and they treated Lia with so much care! They also sent photos and updates throughout the day, which made me feel even more comfortable. When we picked her up, she was very calm, and she came home just as relaxed and happy — which says a lot about how well she was cared for. I would definitely leave Lia with them again 💛
