Playful Paws Backyard Fun

Hi, I’m Anna 👋 My rescue pup Luca and I are lucky to have a fully fenced backyard and would love to share it with you. You’re welcome to book solo playtime for your pup, or if your dog would enjoy a buddy, we can arrange for Luca to come out and play, too. We’re excited to host you! 💛 I’ve been a dog sitter for over 10 years and about 3 years ago discovered Luca is the bestest lil temporary brother ... so, now we dog sit together! He’s wonderful with other dogs and loves to share his toys, zoomies, and all the good sniffs. We do have neighbors who have a pup, so you may hear him on the other side of the fence. The gate is on the left side of the house, and will be unlocked. Give it a good push, to open. Shut it tight behind you, the lock sometimes sticks. There is a green pooper scooper next to the trash bin, and poop bags on the silver stand on the porch. If we are home, I'm happy to treat you to some coffee or tea to stay warm in the cold months. If there is anything else you need, let us know. Enjoy!
