We are happy to do a meet and greet. Both work from home so your pet will always be in good company. Our neighborhood also has many parksif your dog needs a little more exercise. We have a 2 bedroom apartment and the spare room has been turned into a doggy play space/room with doggy beds and toys. We are cage free and only use a crate upon clients request We also specialize in taking care of dogs with special needs especially abused or sheltered dogs or dogs that need meds, oral, or injections. We look forward to pampering your pet as if they were our own. About this sitter: We both work from home so we have the time to take care of your pet as if they were our own. Consider your pet to be in good care with the both of us Why I love dog sitting I have had several animals for the last 18 years, ranging from cats turtles birds, and dogs.

Sal was an awesome sitter for my pups. It was a relatively last minute booking & we were 1st time clients, but he was extremely accommodating & flexible, which we appreciate so much! We ended up doing a subsequent booking & the pups (yes 2, a handful!) were pulling to go into his place so they seem to have enjoyed their doggie daycare experience. Highly recommend!

My dog was safe and happy with his stay, and I loved getting pictures of him bonding with the other dogs. 10/10 would recommend & will definitely use their services again!

I definitely would be using them for boarding again. Everyday I received a photo and update on how my dog was doing and that meant a lot to me. It’s not easy leaving our fur babies with someone we don’t know. I am very happy and my big boy looked like he was well taken care of. Thank you Troy and Sal.
