We live closed to the trail.

Pet care experience

Husband and I both grew up with dogs in our homes and are looking forward to having one of our own again but until we do settle amongst ourselves which breed we’re scratching our pet itch by wept sitting for others during our free weekends. We’re active and Love to go out for weekend walks and runs on the bike trails just blocks from our dog friendly apartment building. Dan rest assured if your pup likes to play or enjoys the outdoors we are more than happy to oblige them. We’re equally comfortable with small/medium/large animals, all breeds, high and low energy. Our availability is usually over the weekends but we’re flexible to longer stays as long as our schedules permit us to give your pet the necessary and preferred level of attention.

Bentley had a great time with Rafaela and Henry! As a senior dog, it is hard to find a good sitter that will attend to all his needs (diapers, medicine, etc.), but Bentley seemed to have a great stay here! Definitely recommend for your fur babies!

Rafaela was great! Took great care of Marley and kept me updated with pictures during her stay. Marley got plenty of exercise and I picked up a tired, happy pup.

Chelsea loved staying with Rafael and Henry! They took her for long walks, gave her lots of lovin and treats and even let her sleep on their bed with them. She has found her second set of parents ?
