Pet care experience

We love dogs

We are always available. We've had two different dogs previously. One dog named Lucy, and a dog named Jack before that. They were awesome. We always stayed on schedule for their walks, feeding, and naps. We live in Venice where there are many pets in our quiet neighborhood. We lost Lucy due to illness, so we'd love to take care of some new furry friends to fill that void.

Ray took my pup Charley on 1 day notice when I was in a bind and did a great job taking care of her. She is a handful and im deeply grateful for taking such good care of her. I would definitely use him again.

Hank had a wonderful time staying with Ray and his son! Ray sends frequent updates and photos, so we never needed to worry. Even without a dog of their own, they had plenty of supplies on hand and clearly adore dogs - Hank was welcome on the couch and bed the whole stay. So glad we found them when our regular sitter wasn’t available!

Ray and his son were great with our dog! She made herself right at home and they were very welcoming, offering her treats and a bone right away, which made her very happy and not at all sad to see us leave. I appreciated the texts and pictures Ray sent us throughout the stay. Ray was quick and easy to communicate with. I would use Ray again for watching our Arya!

Haley has been my constant companion since my husband died. She is getting old and is anxious around other dogs so I needed a pet sitter without other dogs or young kids. Ray and his son took great care of Haley, sent me daily texts and photos, took her for walks and rides and I think that she enjoyed staying with them. I will definetely board Haley with Ray again.

We always spoil the dogs that we watch. We love giving them treats and toys and we always take care of them based on their needs.

A typical day

We have plenty of things for your dog to do, from playing with toys, to walking them, to giving them dog snacks. Me and my son are playful with playful dogs and calm with calm dogs.
