Pets are allowed on the minimal furniture I have, but plenty of rugs that dogs seem to absolutely adore rolling around in! I have a comfy corner I set up near my window that dogs love to relax in and stare out and watch people and cars go by! I don't have personal dog supplies, so supplies like bowls, crates, food, leashes, etc would be needed!

Information Theo K. would like to know about your pet

If there's anything specific I need to know about your pup, let me know! I've dogsat for dogs with strict diets and routines, as well as spoiled couch potatoes who've got no rules!

A typical day

My apartment is generally small with not too much room to run around in, but my neighborhood is great for walking! There are lots of other dogs being walked as well though, so if you want me to avoid that, I know some less walked routes as well!

Theo has cared for my dog Mango several times at doggie daycare and is one of her favorite people!! She’s always so excited to see him. He’s very communicative and provides timely and detailed updates as well as plenty of photos!

Theo took such great care of Gus! I got lots of photos while I was away and Gus looked so happy in all of them and he wasn't anxious at all when I picked him up. Theo also suggested we do a meet and greet beforehand which eased my own anxiety about leaving Gus for almost a week. I would definitely book with Theo again!

Princess Nova absolutely loves Theo. I was pleasantly surprised and relieved with how quickly Princess Nova acclimatized to her weekend getaway home away from home. Theo was also good in keeping me updated on Princess Nova and her behaviors and Theo also was excellent about sending me pictures of how my baby was doing. I also like how Theo was informative and helping me understand better ways to train Princess Nova so that as she gets older she can be more aware of how big she is. I’m so happy that I chose Theo and as long as Theo is willing, I’ll be bringing Nova back for her continued home away from home getaway experience. Thank you Theo, and I look forward to seeing you again soon!

Stephanie was an absolute lifesaver when we brought home our golden retriever puppy, Gus. Like most puppies, he had endless energy, and on days when we couldn’t quite keep up, Stephanie made sure he got the exercise and stimulation he needed. What stood out most was the genuine love and care they showed him. Gus was always so excited to go to daycare, which says everything about how comfortable and happy he felt there. It gave us real peace of mind knowing he was in such good hands. I wholeheartedly trust Stephanie with any fur baby and couldn’t recommend them more. Truly wonderful!
