A typical day

When your lucky dog gets to visit our boarding and daycare home environment there are no crates. Each pet will get special one on one time constantly. Have a needy pet? We can accommodate! Have a pet with dietary/medications or other restrictions, we can accommodate! Does your pet have separation issues, not cage/crate friendly or require additional care? We specialize in senior dogs so we know just how they need to be treated! We also have a separate puppy pen and can accommodate puppies less than 1 year old.

It was the first time using dog sitting with Richard. During our meet and greet he was kind and very reassuring. We have an elder dog and a younger girl, both with different needs. I heard that he was experienced and willing to meet their needs and I believe he did. He was also very accepting of our digs homes feeding style and understood our goals. We will absolutely use them again.

We were very nervous leaving our puppy for the first time since she is only six months old, but she came back looking so comfortable and well cared for. It gave us such peace of mind knowing she was in good hands. Thank you for taking such great care of her and making her feel safe and happy. If we have to travel again, we will definitely book with you again.
