Yamilka took very good care of our dog. She made us feel comfortable and confident in trusting our dog’s care to her. She sent pictures and updates everyday. We feel we have found a very reliable sitter and family who we can trust to take care of our furry family member. Thank you, Yamilka!

This family is so kind and great at communicating! They took great care of our dog. They were also willing to keep him longer when our flight was cancelled.

Safety, trust & environment

We have a completely fenced spacious back yard, and a safe and happy place for your doggie. Our two daughters, ages 11 & 14 years old will be the perfect company and play partners for your pet. We believe every pup deserves personalized love and attention. That’s why we typically welcome one furry guest at a time, so your dog feels right at home and gets all the care they need. We also know some pups feel their happiest when they’re with their sibling or a special buddy. In those cases, we’re happy to make an exception and host two dogs together, as long as they’re a good match. To be sure everyone is safe, we’ll schedule a meet and greet first. This gives us a chance to see how the dogs interact and to make sure it’s the right fit for all. If everything feels good, we’ll happily move forward with your booking!

A typical day

We believe it is important to stimulate your pet physically and mentally. That's where our 11 and 14 year old girls are experts. Nice walks, running, jumping in our fenced yard and playing with your doggie's toys will give your pet lots of fun and active time.
