We were very happy with Stefan and Elvia taking care of our Labrador for 10 days. They sent lots of photos and our dog had lots of fun with them. It was easy to communicate with them and overall a very positive experience.

June starts wagging his tail as soon as we turn onto their block! They were super communicative and caring as always. June doesn’t stay anywhere else.

Lots of photos showed us a comfortable dog on some hot days. Especially liked seeing her play with another dog on the second day. When we picked her up, she was glad to see us, but not crazy. This was great! We will be back.

Safety, trust & environment

We provide a safe, calm, and structured home environment where dogs can relax and feel at ease. Dogs enjoy a cage-free space with freedom to move around, always under supervision and with clear boundaries to ensure safety and harmony. Our home includes a secure, fenced backyard for supervised outdoor time, play, and exercise. We focus on maintaining a balanced, stress-free environment where every dog feels comfortable, safe, and well cared for.

A typical day

Each day is structured around the dogs to ensure a calm, safe, and enjoyable experience. Mornings start with outdoor time in our fenced yard, followed by walks around our quiet, dog-friendly neighborhood. Throughout the day, dogs enjoy supervised play, socialization, and plenty of attention. We balance activity and rest, allowing each dog to relax comfortably inside the home — whether that’s on the couch, a bed, or their favorite spot. Every dog receives personalized care based on their energy level, routine, and personality, ensuring they feel at home from the moment they arrive. Sleeping arrangements: Dogs are free to sleep wherever they feel most comfortable — beds, couches, or their own space — just like at home. Time with your dog: We are with the dogs throughout the day, providing constant supervision, companionship, and care.

To ensure a safe and enjoyable environment for all dogs, we are best suited for well-socialized, friendly dogs who are comfortable around people and other dogs. We provide a cage-free home environment, so dogs should be comfortable relaxing freely in a home setting. Please let us know about your dog’s personality, routine, energy level, and any special needs so we can provide the best possible care.
