Vacation for your dog close to home
We've taken care of small and medium dogs since we were very young. Now that we have a small furry friend of our own, we have space, time and love to pamper yours.

Ratings and reviews
Dolly was happy and healthy when I picked here up! Thanks so much!

Rafaelina was so loving towards our 1 year old Golden Doodle. We will definitely rebook when we need doggie care 🙏❤️🦮

Ziggy had a wonderful two-week vacation with Rafaelina. I was a little nervous about it because it was his first time being away from the family with a Rover caretaker for such a long time. My fears were unfounded: We received daily updates that showed that Ziggy settled in quickly and truly enjoyed himself. He especially liked the fenced-in yard, as it is full of interesting things to discover. Bonus point: Rafaelina (or her daughters?) is a really good photographer - the pics we received from Ziggy every day were stunning!

Rafaelina and her family took amazing care of Nala! We are so grateful for the care and we can’t wait to be back! Thank you.

Always a great stay with Rafealina !

Rafaelina takes such great care of our pups. She’s incredibly responsive and so flexible.

Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
Certified as a Fear Free Professional is our mission to provide your friendly fury friend a relaxed and comfortable environment to ease fear and anxiety during their stay. We believe in rewarding positive behaviors in order to correct unwanted behaviors. We will follow your own stablished routines/schedules to allow your baby to feel like as at home as much as possible. Your baby will have free access to all spaces in the house and the choice to sleep with one of us at night. We have a fenced in backyard to keep your baby happy and entertained. Provide close supervision during play, walks, resting time and eating. We use trackers to keep all our furry guests as safe as possibly during their visit. We go on walks two to three times a day and do lots of playing. Ellie would be happy to host a play date with a friend.
Pets
A typical day
Fist thing in the morning we take a walk for about half an hour or more depending on your dog. There is a walk around mid-day and they are always free to go into the yard since we leave the connecting door open for them. During rain time Ellie is happy to play inside running around and throwing her ball. Evening walk for about a hour where we go through special back roads and near a lake where you dog can pick up lots of new scents. At the end of the day your dogs may sleep in their bed or crate if they please and if their used to it they may sleep in one of our beds.
