Availability

Peter and I mostly work from home so your dog will have both human and canine companionship the majority of the time during their stay with us. When we both venture out, we are not typically gone for more than 4-5 hours. We go on daily walks and frequent excursions with Violet and can easily accommodate the routine needs of your dog(s) as well.

Let's Connect! We would prefer to host a meet & greet to personally connect and provide and opportunity for your dog to meet us & Violet and ensure that we will all be set up for ongoing successful visits. All dogs must be house or crate trained.

A typical day

We typically wake between 6:30-7:30 and have some time in the backyard for morning relief, stretches, and play before breakfast. During the workday, we take multiple breaks, including a mid-day walk, and will ensure the dogs take a nice walk or trip to the park in the late afternoon/evening. We are frequently enjoying a relaxing evening including dinner, backyard time, and lots of affection/play. During the weekends, we enjoy going to Doran or Dillon beach, Russian River, or taking walks on the nearby Santa Rosa river path. We will, of course, discuss your dog's particular activity needs & preferences.

Pet care experience

Hello, we are Peter & Shannon. We have both had pets throughout our lives and, over the past decade +, have taken care of own dogs and others' dogs in all stages of life. From puppies to seniors with special needs, we know that every dog is special and we aim to provide care, affection, and play to is unique to each dogs ability and preferences. We are comfortable providing medications and incorporating any medical necessities into our daily routine as needed. We do not have children and our dogs (and yours) are absolutely our babies. Currently have one dog, Violet, a very friendly and outgoing doodle who loves meeting and playing with new friends. Violet is quite intuitive and has shown gentleness with more senior or less energetic dogs but she also can "turn it on" and play, play, play with those who are interested. We recently lost our 10 year old labrador, Charley, to cancer and have so much extra love to give to your fur baby.

Shannon is a great sitter! Her years of experience as a parent of cats and dogs mean she has the skills and the love as a qualified sitter. She has taken care of my 60lb Pitbull (my cherished child) numerous times. Figgy gets so excited to see her, it’s clear they have a bond. This is so meaningful to me when my dog is comfortable and happy with a sitter, and the relationship is not purely transactional, and I can trust someone. I am grateful for Shannon’s amazing care.

Shannon and Peter are two of my dog’s favorite people. Penny loves spending time with both of them and I know that she will get cuddles, good activity and well taken care of when she is with them. Their dog, Violet, is also very sweet and plays well with other dogs. Highly recommend!
