Holiday Resort for your Dog!

Pet care experience

We specialize in small toy breeds and smaller dogs. Rest assured that your pet will have all the care dedicated to their unique needs. Our home will become your pets home. Dog services and rescue is what we do. It's our full time job! This is not a side hobby, we are dedicated to ensuring your pet gets the care and love they deserve while staying in our home. We do our best to ensure that your pet becomes part of our family! We have rescued and cared for dogs for many years and one day plan to open a sanctuary. We are both vegan and care for everything animal. All dogs that stay with us are offered interactive experiences (playing fetch, peanut-butter-filled Kongs, walks in the park, chew-toys). Your pets tail will be wagging long after they have left. If you have a high energy dog, we will ensure lots of off-leash fun to make sure they will be relaxed when they return home. We have a 3000sq foot home with a large (multi-level!) fully finished and fenced backyard, where your dog can play and interact with our family. We provide a loving supervised and controlled environment. Your dog can gain confidence and independence knowing that there will be lots of play and toys waiting for them around each corner. This is our job, so there will always be someone 24/7 to care for and look after your pet. We can't wait to meet you and your pet! See you soon. - Tina and Pino

My rescue dog Forrest has only ever stayed with my parents when I've traveled, but we recently traveled together so I needed to find a sitter and was very anxious about it. I am so thrilled that I found Pino online here! Pino and Christina are both very kind and professional, and I know they took great care of my dog while I was away for three days (Aug 2018). Their property is beautiful and clean and I knew from the moment we had our meet and greet that I could trust them with my little guy. I will definitely call on them again and recommend them to others without hesitation. Very happy!!

We left our little Jacky with Christina and Pino during our 18 day vacation. Both Christina and Pino are kind, compassionate people who truly love and understand dogs. Their home is spotless and lovely and truly feels like a home. They followed our detailed instructions for Jacky's meals and medications perfectly and we could see Jacky was happy and healthy when we picked her up. We received daily photos and updates about Jacky that we looked forward to receiving. If you are looking for a loving home away from home do not hesitate, you will find it with Christina and Pino. We had a wonderful experience and fully recommend these lovely people and their home.

Pino and Tina took amazing care of our little guy! My only worry was that he wouldn't want to come home! The daily pictures/videos we received was an added bonus! 100% would recommend.
