Pet care experience

Full-Time dog & cat lover

My name is Ryan and on the picture you can see my wife Maelle! I’ve had dogs my whole life and I am very excited to watch your dog! I go hiking often so your pup will get plenty of exercise with me! We love going for long walks in our neigbhood or in rock creek park when the weather allows it and penny makes the perfect companion to play indoor in case of heat wave or rain. Maelle works from home but we are both available all days of the week as well. We will gladly host your dog for extended periods where they will get plenty of attention, a prime spot on the bed and lots of love! We will gladly pick up your puppy and drop them off as well. Dogs any size and temperament are welcome!

Ryan and Maelle were very attentive to our dog’s needs over a weekend stay and provided frequent and detailed updates. Would highly recommend!

They took amazing care of our pup while we were out of town. We felt safe and confident he was getting the same love at his overnight that we would have at home. We will definitely be booking with them again

Ryan and Maelle are awesome! They always take time to engage and play with my shy kittie who likes to hide and they communicate well with me. They were also very understanding about key confusion on my part and were flexible with schedule. I really appreciate their excellent care for my cat and their kind patience with my schedule confusion. 👍

They took such great care of Harvey! He had a blast while we were gone, we got lots of pictures of the fun he was having, and always felt like Harvey was safe and in good hands. They really took care of our guy.

A typical day

We usually walk penny three times a day, if your pup needs more than that, it’s not a problem, everyone is pretty flexible at home. During the week, walks mostly happens around the neigbhood but we usually like to hike during weekends especially with younger pups unless it rains or the weather happens to be too hot.
