Highlights
Pet care experience
Dog loving family!!
We will take the best care of your furry family members like they’re my own! My husband and I love animals, and have many years of experience caring for our own and friends/family members pets. The property offers a large fenced yard, and we can make sure potty breaks and outdoor playtime are provided every 1-2 hours as needed. We have two dogs of our own that will be in the home, and have therefore limited the number of pets we can watch at a time to assure they will all receive my full attention. They are fine and very friendly with other dogs! The one is a 55 lb Golden Retriever, the other a 10 lb Bichon/Shih Tzu, both males. We both work from home, and make pet care a part of our regular routine! We’re up by 6:30am for breakfast, which is the same time I feed my own dogs. Your pet would be on the same schedule (unless requested otherwise), and then they are let out after breakfast to run/play in the backyard. Lunch is around 12:30, when we either go for a quick walk in the neighbourhood or more playtime in the backyard. Cuddle time is also a great option at lunch too! Dinner is at 5:30pm, which is the dogs last meal time for the day. Your dog would also be the same (unless requested otherwise). We go for a walk after dinner on nice days, and on not so nice ones, we stay in for extra cuddle time or a good run in our big backyard. The yard is large and fully fenced to allow for lots of playtime, and we have designated spaces inside for free space to play/run around if we can’t let them out in the backyard.
Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
Stephanie was excellent! We have a bit of an anxious small dog, but she fit right in with the other dogs in the home. Stephanie was great at updating us on how things were going and sent lots of photos. We'll be using Stephanie again.
Dino enjoyed another wonderful day with Stephanie and family!! Love the pic/vids during Dino's stay. Dino is looking forward to future stays!
I had to find a sitter ASAP, Stephanie got back to me within five minutes and confirmed and it was the best decision I’ve made! Her family treats Roger just like he is a part of theirs! Plenty of pictures and videos throughout the day and tons of updates and cuddles for Roger! Thank you and we will absolutely be back!
Stephanie and her family took such good care of our girl. They were in touch sending photos and videos daily. Rosie loved playing with their cute pups. You can tell Rosie was treated like part of the family. We would definitely book with Stephanie again. A++
Based on today's experience. Definitly would have Stephanie look after Dino again. Was calm and typed when picked up! Thank you!! 🙏
Our Athena spent 4 days with Stephanie and family and I could tell our girl was well taken care of. Stephanie sent updates and pictures daily. We never had one worry as to leaving our girl with Stephanie and her family. Athena was able to have lots of exercise time and play time with Stephanie's puppies. I highly recommend Stephanie and family to take care of your fur family.

Schedule
Both my husband and I work from home so my dogs’ schedule throughout the weekdays is very consistent: 6:30am breakfast and playtime 12:30 lunch and playtime 5:30 dinner and playtime We are more flexible with times on weekends, but for the most part stick to this!
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
We have a large fenced yard and are in a quiet neighbourhood. Your dog will be kept company by two very gentle dogs, who will love having extra playmates. Indoors we have a designated space for indoor playtime and sleeping. Your dog can be crated/kennelled if necessary (would need to bring your own crate/kennel).

A typical day
Watching dogs explore their environments is so fun and exciting! We will be able to take them out frequently to do just that, including walking around my neighbourhood and parks nearby. For longer stays, there are excellent walking trails that can mean long relaxing walks on nice days!
Prices include all fees.
