Safety, trust & environment

We are aware that many animals are escape artists. We are very careful to ensure your pet is safe before, during and after our care. First, we follow all instructions provided and like to ensure we have proper communication in place in the event something comes up. While under our care, we treat your pups like the kings and queens they are! This includes regular "conversations" with them, playing their favorite games, and providing as much pets and scratches as they'd like. We understand how stressful it can be for you and your pets so we try to make it as stress free as possible for both. We like to keep you updated by sending photos and texts throughout the visit, but will also discuss beforehand what type of communication you would prefer. :)

Information Stephanie C. would like to know about your pet

Please let us know if you have any specific commands or words you use for your pets. If your pet has a history of aggression, it is best we set up at least 2 meet and greets to get comfortable before providing services.

A typical day

We like to give all pets the space to get to know us first. Some pets warm up slowly to new people and we want to ensure they feel safe before engaging in an activity. Once this trust has been established we like to match the pups speed! With our high energy pups, this can look like taking long walks, playing fetch, or even chasing in the yard. For our cats or seniors it can be lounging in the sunshine with lots of belly rubs. Most visits include refreshing the water bowl, feeding, outside time and lots of pets and conversation.

Amazing care by Stephanie and Devan:) Jack was well taken care of and he always gets a lot of attention and love from both of them. I’m really happy that they send very detailed updates and cute pictures. They are wonderful 🥳- I couldn’t ask for a better care.

Stephanie and Devan were great at taking care of Jack. It feels good to know that Jack is in good hands while I’m away. Jack loves seeing and playing with them, as he gets a lot of attention and cuddles from them.!

Devan took great care of our anxious older dog. We requested multiple drop-ins over three days while we were away. It was hard to leave him but we knew he was in good hands. She was a great communicator and provided him the love and attention he needed. Highly recommend!
