Landon was super communicative and very accommodating to Bruno. We were able to enjoy our trip knowing he was in good hands. Will definitely board with him again.

Paola kept us updated every day and took great care of Pretzel while we were gone! We loved that she did what worked for pretzel- hanging inside on cold days, and going for long walks when the weather allowed! Highly recommend!

Hana was such a great caretaker of our pup! He got sick during his stay with her and she took care of him like he was her own (vet visit, medications, cleaning up accidents). We are so grateful to her for that! She made us feel so comfortable leaving our dog in her care. Hugo is excited for his next stay with Hana!

Can was amazing! Toby had to have surgery right before I left town and he didn t hesitate to take on the extra ask of the cone, wound care, and medications. I knew Toby was taken care of with frequent updates and any questions. Can t recommend him enough!

This was my first time letting Tank stay with anyone. He was a stray and very nervous around people. I ve only had him two months and so I was extremely nervous about leaving him with anyone. Angel was amazing and Tank really seemed to enjoy his time with Angel and her family. She made my week a little less stressful and I appreciate her for that. I would definitely let Tank stay with her again!

Bethesda's Winter Wonderland
Want to go walking in a winter wonderland? Bring your whole family (and your well-behaved, leashed fur-child too) and get immersed in the holiday spirit! Be sure to be a responsible paw-rent and clean up after your pup, please! Santa is watching, and he will even be there from 1-4 pm in Veterans Park. This event is completely free, so come on down and check it out! There will be some amazing ice sculptors doing what they do best - creating amazing ice masterpieces! There will also be yummy treats, hot cocoa and did we mention - Santa? Bring your camera and get your picture taken with the big man himself, and don't forget your wish list!36
Montgomery Women's Farm and Flea Market - 7155 Wisconsin Avenue
It's always the season for shopping! The Montgomery Women's Farm and Flea Market operates 52 times a year - each weekend! Your furry buddy can join you at the outside market - just be sure he is on a 6-foot leash (no retractable leashes for everyone's safety), is well-behaved and you pick up after him should nature call. The vendors have everything from clothing to food and all things collectable! There is also an outdoor flea market on Sundays - but tell Fido not to worry - there will be no actual fleas there! Grab your purse, your recycled shopping bags and all your two (and four) legged shopping buddies and get your shop on!24
Streetmarket
The whole family is welcome to attend the annual Streetmarket! Bring Fido on his 6-foot leash and be sure to clean up after him. There will be many popular vendors on hand including Take Care Shop, Steadfast Supply, Urban Jungle, Capital Craft Co. and many more. The event is free to the public and will offer free snacks and drinks to the crowd. There will also be an interactive photo booth available - so get silly and SMILE for the camera! If you are still looking for that perfect gift for that special someone, chances are they have what you are looking for at this market! What a wonderful community, family-friendly event!12
Rock Creek Trail
We all need a little extra exercise these days, especially with all those holiday goodies out there! Your furry buddy needs to go for a walk every day, so why not join him and head to Rock Creek Trail? This is a 14-mile asphalt covered trail that winds through the scenic hills and valleys in beautiful Montgomery County, Maryland. Be sure to share the road with your fellow dog walkers, runners, inline skaters and bikers. Also be sure to do your duty as a responsible pawrent and clean up after your furry walking companion. Remember to stay hydrated and keep to the trails! Next time someone tells you to take a hike - now you have some place to go!
Pet Pictures with Santa
Who doesn't need another photo of their pet with Santa? You know you already have a frame picked out, so head on over to the Wet Dog Tavern in nearby Washington, DC and have Fido climb up on Santa's lap and say cheese! All proceeds will benefit the Humane Rescue Alliance. You will get your own magnetic frame for your picture with Santa. The photo is free but won't you consider giving a donation to help this very worthy cause? HO HO HO to all, and a very happy paw-lidays!
