Information Santa V. would like to know about your pet

If your dog needs any medication I am able to help with that. Your dog needs to be able to be good with other kids 14 and under.

A typical day

They will be integrated in our family life. In the morning we do a first walk, later I will take the to the beach. During the day they can cuddle up while I work or we play. Night time a last walk and the dogs can sleep on our bed at night time

Pet care experience

We've owned and loved our cockapoo until the end at 13 yo and we cared for her deeply. After she passed the house was so empty that we started fostering dogs. The first dog we got gave birth 4 hours after she arrived at our place and it was magical. We've also fostered a lot of kittens , baby rabbits and a guinea pig and we respect all animals and want to make them feel loved and secure

⸻ We love having Santa watch our Bella. She is incredibly caring and sweet. We’ve used her several times, and it gives us such peace of mind knowing our four-legged family member is in trustworthy hands. I highly recommend Santa — Bella always has a wonderful time and truly enjoys her stays. We also appreciate all the adorable photo updates throughout her visit.

Absolutely amazing! My Koa Bear was in great hands and they were amazing. I received many updates and they took excellent care of my pup. He has a wonderful time with them and had lots of room to play. I would 100% recommend and will definitely rebook in the future.

I can’t imagine better care for your pup than Santa and her family provided while we were out of town for a long weekend. Communication was excellent and we got so many updates with videos and photos, we were totally assured he was in the best hands and it allowed us to relax even more on our vacay. They really treated our pup like part of their family and it was really obvious he enjoyed himself thoroughly.
