It’s already been 6 crazy weeks since the girlies and I have been “fully nomad”, and I’ve already had a bajillion realizations and epiphanies about what traveling full-time without a home base of your own is *really* like.

It’s been strange, “bed surfing” with two little senior pugs, across two provinces, searching for a new cutlery drawer every week, learning to use every brand of coffee machine under the sun, constantly adapting to different routines and neighbourhoods and grocery stores…. strange strange strange…

While I’ve been sharing along the way on The Road to Grumble Farm's stories, I’m VERY behind on posting to the feed. So we’re gunna take it back to our VERY first sit of the year from last month with this collection of photos and videos taken from quite possibly one of the most beautiful primary bedrooms I’ve ever slept in (with the prettiest bedding, to boot).

It was in Nakusp, which was the same little lakeside mountain valley village we lived in at the Little Shack on the Farm. This client randomly found me on Facebook, and asked if I could stay at her place for a week with her four little Pomeranians and one Norwegian Elkhound named Timber.

5 dogs is… a lot, but it somehow feels a little more manageable when you’re staying in a nearly two million dollar, 4200 square foot lakefront estate in the woods. And the only reason I share those details is because the place is currently up for sale on realtor.ca (MLS #10367530 Sotheby’s International Realty Canada, if you wanted to check it out; Google 2600 Highway 23 N, Nakusp 👀)

I loved waking up and opening the blinds to see Arrow Lake every morning (except for when it was snowing, but even then, the view was still kinda vibey); there was also a little trampoline in the bedroom that I loved rebounding on every chance I got as I gazed out at the water. Great way to stimulate the lymphatic system 🙂

Looking back, we definitely started off this new nomadic chapter with a bang… ❤️🧡

Hi everyone! The first question I get asked when receiving inquires is always about my rates, right off the bat.

All of the information about my sitting services, including a breakdown of my rates, can be found on this page: https://grumblefarmsitting.com

This is just a temporary one-page website until I get an actual website with proper navigation up and running, so it's quite a long scroll!

However, my rates are per day and run anywhere between $99 and $200+ per night (plus a travel stipend if I am not already in your area around the start date of your requested booking).

Urban and suburban sits with dogs, cats, and other indoor pets run between $99 and $150 per night (mostly depending on the number of dogs in the home).

Farms and homesteads run between $125 to $200+ per night depending on the number of dogs and other livestock (chickens, goats, horses, cows), as well as overall barn & property chores.

It REALLY just depends (and honestly, mostly comes down to the amount of daily dog care!)

I am happy to negotiate custom quotes based on the length-of-stay as well ❤️

Thanks everyone!
