Pet care experience

Extended family to your fur babies

Hi there! We’re a dog-loving couple (my fiance Jake) with a lifetime of experience caring for pups of all shapes, sizes, and personalities. From energetic goofballs to shy rescue dogs, we’ve seen it all—and we truly love them all. Growing up around dogs taught us not just the joy of endless playtime, but also the importance of structure, training, and patience. Whether your pup is a high-energy adventurer, a timid cuddlebug, or working through behavioral challenges, we’ve got the experience (and the heart) to make them feel safe, happy, and loved. We specialize in caring for nervous or rehabilitating dogs, and we always take the time to earn their trust. We’re so excited to share our passion and provide a second home where your furry friend will be treated like family.

Great sitter. Caring, calm and patient. All the skills you want in a sitter looking after a puppy! Followed the instructions and Arlo had a great time whilst being taken care of.

Valentina was excellent and really lovely. She arrived early, ready to start on time. Our mini dachundsund Flynn can often be nervous with new people but he settled in with her right away and was very happy. She shared updates and photos throughout the day, and did everything as agreed. Highly recommend

I’m always nervous to have anyone care for our nervous, reactive dog but Valentina is so good with her & made me feel very comfortable leaving our girl in her care which is lovely. Thank you!

Valentina and Jake came to look after our dog Parker while we were away for 10 days. They are so lovely and I immediately felt at ease after our meet and greet. We got regular updates and I think our house was tidier than when we left it!

Valentina and Jake did a fantastic job of looking after Betsy at relatively short notice. They came beforehand to meet her and they are clearly dog lovers. They came on time, sent various updates with photos and a video. I came back home to a well looked after dog. I would not hesitate in using them again and would thoroughly recommend them.

I couldn’t be more grateful to Valentina for the incredible care she provided for my dog, Falange. Over the 15 days they spent together, Valentina went above and beyond, not only meeting his basic needs but also helping him with his anxiety and reactivity issues. Her genuine love for animals is evident in everything she does. Falange came back calmer, happier, and clearly well-loved. Valentina's patience, attention to detail, and understanding of dog behavior made all the difference. I felt completely at ease knowing he was in such caring and capable hands. I would be more than happy to book her again in the future — she is truly a gem. Highly recommended!
