Our dog had a wonderful stay! We received regular updates and photos throughout the week, which we greatly appreciated. It gave us peace of mind knowing he was well cared for and enjoying his time. We would definitely book with Robert again and recommend his services.

Millie loved her stay at Robert’s house! It was my first time leaving her for two weeks so I was nervous, but Robert checked in daily with updates and photos. Millie loved his backyard and their daily walks/ runs. Definitely plan to use Robert again in the future!

Robert is great! Millie seemed to love her walks with him. Looking forward to having him watch her for a couple weeks in the near future! I was very nervous to leave her with anyone for that long, but I feel reassured knowing that Robert will take care of her like his own dog.

Robert was wonderful with our dog. He was a great communicator both before and after the booking. It’s so hard leaving our pup behind but we felt reassured he was in good hands with Robert. We hope that when we need to board again Robert will be available!

Safety, trust & environment

I have a large fenced backyard which has always been the dogs domain. My home is dog friendly. My canine guests are as welcome (sometimes more welcome) as their humans.

A typical day

Your best friend would enjoy taking a walk or a run with me. My backyard is perfect for playing ball or Frisbee. Inside they are welcome to sit by me on the couch or whenever they are comfortable.
