*Big Dogs on case-by-case basis / to add $5 more*
am a proud pawrent to 2 lovely dogs, 15 year-old Biscuit (Jack Russell), 4.5 year-old Elmo (Cavalier King Charles Spaniel) and latest addition, sweet Abby (Cavalier). (Our loving 12 year-old cavalier, Oreo, has sadly crossed over to the rainbow bridge in Aug 16). I love dogs and have more than 15 years of experience looking after them. They are treated just like my kids and have the free roam of the house.
My husband works from home and I am always at home (currently on career break) so be rest assured your dog will be showered with lots of love and attention. I am able to brush your dogs to ensure they always look their best. We live in a townhouse in Peakhurst with a spacious backyard (with a doggy door) and a decent front yard, both securedly fenced so you know your pets are free to run around safely. We also have a cosy sheltered terrace where the dogs can chill, lounge out and enjoy the view of the sky. There are two cosy kennels and a lounge at the terrace if your dog prefer to be outdoor. We call our home your pet's Air B&B getaway equivalent. :) Otherwise, all dogs are welcomed indoor where they will sleep in our guest room/lounge at night (further supervised by two cameras). We have plenty of dog beds around the house although it will be good if you can bring along its own so that your dog will have some sense of familiarity in our house. If your dog loves company, you can definitely rely on Elmo to provide loving companionship to your dog.
As you can see from the thousands of photos I have uploaded, I love photography and try to take great shots of your precious fur-babies. On special occasions (Christmas etc), I even throw in free photo shoots ;). Because of the different dogs socialisation, please ensure your dogs' vaccination and flea/tick treatment are up-to-date for every pawrent's ease of mind. :)
Why our home? - I pet mind full time which means your furbabies will be given close supervision as well as dedicated care and love during their stay with us. I am always there to ensure it is all fun play, and not rough play. (If time permits, I also teach free-of-charge basic obedience commands where necessary to ensure the furbabies are obediently behaving well together). - We have regular daycare doggy friends so your own furbaby will have lots of company and fun with other dogs. This also allows your furbaby to be well socialised. To ensure a safe and calm environment, we take in mainly smaller sized dogs (mostly under 12kg). - Other than wonderful furry friends, we also have lots of stimulating toys including several Kong toys and balls of various sizes. And of course, Elmo's personal favourite, the Ifetch automatic ball machine.
- A large, secured yard for your furbabies to run around happily, play and relax under the sun. It will feel like a mini dog park. :) - And a home away from home. Very often, we find ourselves sitting on the rug while the doggies took over our couch and chairs (and we don't mind at all). So, yes, we do spoil your dogs rotten. - Convenience and flexibility : I work around your schedule to suit your pick up/drop off times to make it as stress-free as possible for you.

Kris sent us lots of photos and videos of our dog's stay at her house. Kris is friendly and loves dogs. I highly recommend her as a sitter.
Kris was wonderful and I cannot recommend her highly enough! We left our furbaby for the first time and Kris made our month away so much more enjoyable and relaxing knowing that our dog was being loved and looked after so well! We received daily communication including photos and videos. Our dog had so much fun that we have had to book her back in for day care!
