Pet care experience
NOTICE: Rachel has since graduated from university and is now working full-time so her retired mom Mei has since taken over the dog sitting! It has been a pleasure having the company of all your furry pals throughout my years studying 📚 We used to be a dog (terrier) owner until our move to Canada. We have been dog sitting since 2015 and we occasionally foster for rescues. Unfortunately we do not currently have our own dog... which is where yours come in! A home with a dog is a happier home, which is why we love having yours over! :) All payments are in CAD$. Potty trained dogs only. We can provide pretty regular potty breaks (~once every 3 hours). We board (24 hour cycles) large dogs (>=30lbs) for $55/night and daycare (max 10 hours) for $50. Overnight stays extending over the 24 hour cycles are subject to daycare charges. On Sundays, we only do daycare after 2pm. Regular drop off and pick up times are between 10:00am and 10:00pm. There will be a charge of $10 for drop offs/pick ups between 10:00pm and 10am. Pick up or drop off services are not provided. House with 2 (tile for bathroom + hardwood) floors, a balcony the dogs love to sunbathe in, and a fully fenced front and back yard that the dogs love to run around in. Three minute walk away from a park. There is a small flight of stairs that leads up to the main front door so if your senior furry friend may have trouble with it, feel free to discuss solutions with me! (eg: the back door that leads directly into the lower level of my house or we can carry your dog up and down!) Your pet will be loved - promise! We are a family of dog lovers and your pup is guaranteed lots of attention! We stick to the dogs' regular routine as much as possible so that they settle down as soon as possible. So please bring all their things!( food/beds/towels/toys/bowls/leash/poop bags/shampoo, etc...) We have 2 refrigerators each with a freezer as well so there is space to store any food. Your dog will never be off-leash beyond my yard (no matter how good their recall is!) as your pet's safety is our utmost priority. We also try to limit the # of stays we have at our place to max 3 dogs a day. Please do not hesitate to contact me if you have any concerns or inquiries! ////////////// - Intro to the household / fam - Retired parents: Dad [KC] + Mom [Mei] Sisters: Clare, Joyce, Rachel, Alice We have shared access to this account and all help with taking care of your doggy friends whether it be pictures/walks/feeding/updating/etc. Ideally you'd have all the most important notes noted down in your dog's profile :) //// Romans 8:19-22 For the anxious watching of the creation eagerly awaits the revelation of the sons of God. For the creation was made subject to vanity, not of its own will, but because of Him who subjected it, In hope that the creation itself will also be freed from the slavery of corruption into the freedom of the glory of the children of God. For we know that the whole creation groans together and travails in pain together until now.📚
Reviews
Got lots of videos and pictures during my dogs stay with Rachel and her family. Would definately recommend and send my dog back for boarding or daycare when in need.
bubu had a great time at Rachel's place with her family! They sent me lots of photos everyday, and updated me all the time on what he was doing.
Prompt communication. Took great care of my doggo during the day. Lots of updates with pictures and videos throughout the day
Our dog Charlie was well loved while staying with Rachel’s family. He spent the weekend there, and I was updated numerous times a day with photos. He even slept on his back and we all know what that means!
