Information Rachel B. would like to know about your pet

Please let us know: - What is your dog's energy level? - Do they bark when left alone? - How often do they get walks? - Do they pull or jump at people or animals?

A typical day

We wake up around 7-8am and go outside first thing in the morning. We love going for walks in the forest and around the lake. Rachel will take your pup running through the forest. When inside, it's a relaxing environment, quiet and nappish.

Professional Pet Care

Pet care experience

Nir is a talented dog trainer. Rachel is compassionate and sets animals at ease. Together we have ample experience caring for animals - house sitting for traumatized rescue dogs, rambunctious puppies, dignified elderly doggos, and everything in between. Please note that we have a cat, and we often host two dogs at time, so animals that stay with us should play nice with others. We also only host pups that are toilet trained.
