Hi, we're AJ and Lauren! We are a couple based in the from the USA/South Africa and have both been dog lovers for as long as we can remember, spending our lives around dogs of all sizes and personalities. One of the most important dogs in our lives is AJ's family dog, Boulder, who lives in South Africa. While we don't get to see him as often as we'd like, he helped shape our love for animals and taught us how special the bond between pets and their owners truly is. Our motivation for becoming pet sitters is simple: we genuinely enjoy spending time with dogs and helping them live happy, active, and fulfilling lives. We treat every dog in our care with the same attention, patience, and affection we would give our own. When it comes to walks, we typically go for 45–60 minutes, exploring local parks and trails to give dogs a good run and mental stimulation. We are comfortable caring for one dog at a time to ensure each pet gets our full attention. When boarding, dogs follow a structured daily routine including morning walks, playtime, rest, an afternoon outing, and a calm evening wind-down. We are happy to reinforce basic training commands and can adapt to specific needs including administering oral medications if required. We prefer to welcome vaccinated pets only, ensuring a safe environment for everyone. We look forward to meeting you and becoming your dog's new best friends here in the Gold Coast! 🐾
