Meka just left for home. She had a great day. I have the boys, Chase & Rusty with me. It is odd having it so quiet. Boys and Meka are loving it. I had them out more often and longer. Ted & Bonnie had fun with their new friend Meka. Boys always love their time out with me to play. They have had their supper. And now it is raining. That worked out great. All day dry.
Tomorrow Brumby and Louie are coming for the day. Chase & Rusty are going home. I end the day with no dogs.
Wed - no dogs or clients coming. Bonnie has her Vet annual exam and vaccination appointment.
Thurs - I end the week with my day friends - Brumby, Baxter & Vela.
Friday - vacation begins. A couple days off before I travel. Monday, 5am - my ride comes to take me to the airport. I am beyond excited to be going to Calgary to spend time with Dad & Darlene.

Perfect timing. Had everyone out to play and not raining. It stopped for all my friends to enjoy play time with me. It has been a nice light shower since it started. Put on my jacket to go out and it stopped. Love when that happens! We did not get wet other than our feet.

It is raining. Heading out to play in the rain. Glad we had long time out this morning to enjoy the sun. You know what happens after 2 days of rain - Monday. Suppose to be a wet weekend. Grab the umbrella and enjoy your day. The gardens are loving the rain.

Fun in the sun! I am so glad I started with my friends Tater & Evie. When I let Seiko out, Mom and Dad arrived to pick them up. They had a fun over night stay. They are on their way home. Enjoy pics of all my friends. Seiko was happy after they left, he got to go out and be with Ted & Bonnie. Ted was a busy guy - lots of my friends went to visit and play with him. Even my new little friend Gordie.
Next to go today are Ellie and Gordie. I will get to be with them again before they go. Wish everyone a wonderful Saturday. Last day of May. The month went by fast!

I have had several requests from clients for June 6 - 15. I am closed and not available. I am on vacation. First time in 18 years. June is filled with fun and I have several projects being done.
I will be vacationing in Calgary June 9 - 13. While I am away, have projects being done. I met with the contractor on Thursday. All the material is here or ordered to arrive. I will show you when I return and it is all done. My friends are going to love it! Hoping the weather co-operate.. I put my order in for warm, dry days in Nova Scotia and Alberta. Looking forward to family time with Dad and Darlene. Darlene is in the hospital. Sending her extra love and good vibes. I cannot wait to see them. ♥♥

Supper done. We all had fun. It was a nice day. I did some gardening. Dave cut everything with the new electric lawn mower. Looks great. Big play time before supper. Always nice when outside runs open, beautiful evening and not a sound since supper. You would have no idea there are dogs on the property. I have 12. Wish everyone a nice evening. 14 if you include mine.
PS: Thank you Ann for the cod, they loved it! ♥

We provide a fun vacation for your best friend. We are located in the country and provide 24 hour care, 365 days a year. My husband I moved to Tatamagouche in 2007. Started our business to give dogs and cats a home away from home. A place to feel loved, welcome, secure and happy. Our facilities are attached to our home and are well maintained, spacious and clean, giving each guest a nice space to enjoy. Provide lots of exercise, interaction and socializing, in a large off leash space. Giving each a healthy, daily routine, ending each day, exercised, happy and ready for a good night sleep.

Dogs are given a large, fenced yard. Grass, including a spacious deck. Large inside area, with access to outside covered run. Protected from the elements (rain/hot sun). Snow season, we create snow paths in the yard. All dogs can have full access. Facility wheelchair accessible. Ramps make it comfortable for pets and people.
Kitty cottage is spacious, entertaining, quiet, tranquil and dog free. 12 x 12 feet, attached veranda outside. Includes carpet climbing two storey condo, window to sit and enjoy the scenery. Great place to call your pets own. Bring all their comforts from home to enjoy.
New clients welcome to come for a meet and greet. Let’s set up a time. 902-657-3525. Come meet our guests and me. Too far for a visit, it is not required to make a reservation. Give me a call and I can get all the information needed and answer any questions/concerns you have to know if your fur kids would be happy with us.
DUE TO COVID19 - We are currently not permitting people into the facilities. Clients have been so understanding to not need to when they drop off and pick up. Much appreciated.
New clients are welcome. Entry to view facilities, mask is required. Please do not touch anything and I will open all doorways. We can walk thru and in yard, visit. I can answer any questions you have.
I wear a mask. If it is not possible for me due to pets being mask reactive, then 6ft distance is required. It is easy to do with the outdoor space provided. I let each client determine if it is required for their own safety and comfort to wear a mask. We are always outside. 6ft distance is possible.
