The daily videos showing a happy pup were something we looked forward to each day and put us at ease. We highly recommend this family!”

“Hudson (3.5) and Bentley (almost 4 months) had a wonderful stay with Lana! She spent time playing with them and walking them which made them very happy.

Thank you Lana!!”

About: Hi! We’re Shirley and Anthony—a dependable husband-and-wife team who absolutely love dogs. I’m a pharmacist, and Anthony is a lifelong dog owner who works from home, so your dog will have round-the-clock care, attention, and affection. We’ve cared for dogs of all ages and personalities—from playful pups to slow-moving seniors. We’re gentle, patient, and happy to accommodate special routines, quirks, or needs. I have a healthcare background, so I’m comfortable with basic medication instructions and noticing if something seems off. Anthony, who has raised dogs his whole life, is calm, observant, and has a natural way of making dogs feel safe and relaxed. Anthony is home all day, and I have a flexible schedule, so your pup will never be left alone for long. Whether your dog needs a calm place to rest or a buddy for playtime, we’re here to make them feel safe, loved, and cared for like family. We offer a calm, clean home with a large fenced yard for playtime and plenty of supervised outdoor breaks. We also have two friendly resident dogs who can keep your fur baby company—if your dog enjoys social time. If your dog prefers quiet space or needs downtime, we’re happy to keep them separate and can also crate if needed based on your instructions.


“Jonathan took care of my two dogs for 6 days. Overall everything went really well, from communication, to drop off and pick-up, to caring for them daily. He sent pictures regularly to let me know how they were doing. My dogs came back home happy and healthy.”

I work from home fulltime so your dog won’t be alone! my schedule is super flexible too and would revolve around your dogs schedule :) i live in a two story house. no fence in my backyard so we would go for leashed walks. My dog sleeps with me in my room on his bed. your dog can sleep with us in their bed/crate. your preference

Shirley & Anthony W.
“To Fellow Pet Owners, If you are seeking exceptional, trustworthy, and compassionate dog sitters, I wholeheartedly recommend this couple. I have had the pleasure of knowing them for many years and can confidently attest to their dedication and expertise in caring for dogs of all breeds, ages, and temperaments. Their approach to pet care is both professional and heartfelt—they treat every dog as a cherished member of their family. Whether engaging in playful activities, enjoying peaceful moments in their spacious, fenced yard, or simply offering comforting companionship, they create a warm and secure environment where dogs feel truly at home. Their attentiveness to each dog’s unique personality and needs is extraordinary, and their commitment to safety and happiness is unwavering. Reliable, nurturing, and intuitive, they possess a natural ability to connect with animals. If my dog could speak, I am certain he would offer his enthusiastic approval. Choosing them will undoubtedly bring peace of mind and joy to both you and your beloved pet. Warm regards, Jen”
