Information Tonya A. would like to know about your pet

I would primarily like to know your pet's breed, general energy level and physical needs, habits (good and bad), and especially how they are with other dogs (and other animals ie. cats) as we take up to 3 dogs at a time, as well as ALL special requirements. Please also let me know if your pet can come for car rides and be left for SHORT periods of time in the vehicle alone (10min max - ie. quick run into store if necessary - weather dependent of course!).

A typical day

We do out best to keep dogs mentally and physically engaged. As much movement as the pet requires as well as toys, games ,and love. We typically do a big loop around our property with pups every morning and night as well as lots of time outside to play during the day.

Pets

Animal Loving Family Trio!

Pet care experience

We live out in the country with ample room to run and play. Our house has two separate homes so our family cat can be fully separated from other animals. Every pet we care for becomes a temporary part of our family and is treated as such! The rules in our home are whatever rules the pet is already used to in their own home and as instructed by each and every owner. This applies to being allowed on the bed/couch or not, walking on or off leash, treats, or what have you!

Tonya and her family were wonderful sitters for my fur babies. Great communication and helped put me at ease by sending some photos of them safe and sound on their first night. You can tell the family loves animals and cares for them like their own.

We have difficult dogs but Tonya was amazing with them. She had the exact calm energy our dogs need. It was clear when we picked them up that they had a great time. Thank you!

I was impressed by Tonya’s quick reply and her willingness to work with us on short notice, including rescheduling our drop-off plans! The regular photos of my puppy enjoying walks and play sessions confirmed she was in great hands. Tonya and her daughter were caring, flexible, and responsive. I’ll definitely reach out again when we need services in Kelowna!
