We are retired and are extremely flexible with our daily routine. As a result, we have plenty of time to devote to your pet so that they will quickly adapt and enjoy their new environment. Walking is part of my daily routine and we can adapt to suit your pet’s requirements whether he or she is a walker or not, or would just like to play or sit a home and chill.

Pet care experience

My wife and I are a team and together you get both of us to look after and care for your pet. We have loved and owned wonderful cats, and have loved and looked after small and mid sized dogs over the years. Most have become part of our family and have brought much joy to us. Walking dogs is also a joy and your dog will be welcomed into a warm, cozy, peaceful home.

Richard and Ellen provided wonderful care for our little daschund, even coming up w a new technique to get her to eat ! Picky little princess lol. Tahle was drawn to their energy immediately and felt very comfortable in their home.

We had such a great experience leaving our dog with them in their home. She was clearly so comfortable and well loved, and we got updates that made us feel totally at ease while we were away. Millie came home happy, relaxed, and very well cared for. We’re so grateful and wouldn’t hesitate to have her stay with them again—highly recommend!

Rick and Ellen are experienced, loving and generous caregivers for our yorkie, Rocky. They have boarded Rocky from short term to several week stays. They are patient and understanding. They also keep Rocky active by several daily walks. I would recommend them without reservation.
