Dog Loving Family!

Pet care experience

Are you seeking a caring, experienced companion for your beloved pup? Look no further! With over 14.5 years of dedicated pet parenting, along with dog-sitting for others, I bring a wealth of expertise in raising Shih Tzus and navigating the joys and challenges of caring for senior dogs. My journey with my own Shih Tzu has been nothing short of a heartwarming adventure. From playful puppy days to tender moments in their golden years, I've been there every step of the way, ensuring their happiness and well-being. I understand the unique needs of senior dogs, from administering medications to providing gentle care and attention. Nestled in a serene, quiet neighborhood, our home offers the perfect retreat for your furry companion. With ample walking paths and a spacious backyard, there's plenty of room for leisurely strolls and playful romps. Your pet will thrive in our loving environment, surrounded by a family who shares a deep-rooted passion for dogs. Since having to let our beloved dog go over the rainbow bridge, our hearts have been filled with an abundance of love and time, eager to share our nurturing spirit with other dogs in need. Your furry friend will be welcomed with open arms and showered with the same affection and care as our own. Rest assured, your pup will receive the utmost love, care, and attention in our home. Whether it's cuddle sessions on the couch or adventurous outings in the neighborhood, every moment will be filled with warmth and joy.

Wiki had a pleasant say. He even hesitated to come back home during pickup and was willing to stay another night 😂

Andrew and Vanessa were a last minute booking as our previous rover person had to cancel last minute, but they were a godsend! Everything went extremely well, they took care of Peyton as he was their dog!…they sent me pictures and updates everyday, and that put me at ease. He had a great time with the whole family, and they are sooo wonderful. I’d be lucky to have them pet sit Peyton again.

Vanessa and her family took great care of our 1-year-old mini Aussie while our family went away for a long weekend. They have a clean and comfortable home in a safe, quiet neighborhood. Our dog has A LOT of energy, and Vanessa's family gave him lots of love, attention and playtime. They even gave him some new toys! Vanessa asked about our rules at home and was conscientious to keep those rules at her house so that he would maintain those habits when he came home (even though she didn't have to do that!). She also sent a few texts and photos of Bolt throughout the weekend, which reassured us that he was doing well. I would definitely feel comfortable leaving Bolt with Vanessa again. She and her family would take great care of any type dog who came to stay with them.
