ABOUT US
Meet Ada & Milo! They are both friendly to adults, children and other pets. 

Here is the story of Ada.
Ada had an extreme fear of being bitten by dogs. For 6 years, her husband had asked to raise a puppy and her answer was always no. Ada finally said yes in December 2011. She warned her husband that she may not be able to love Milo as he so deserves to be. A few weeks after Milo's arrival, she fell in love with him.

She learned to understand her puppy and because of him she was able to overcome her fear. She finally understood why others love their dogs so much as they bring so much joy to everyone's lives including strangers. They are also natural healers.

As Ada got exposed to more and more dogs, she had grown to love other dogs and learn from them too. Later on, she decided to help orphaned dogs. Despite her being extremely allergic to the shelters' environments, she still continued to keep fostering dogs.  

Because of Milo, she decided to pursue being a caregiver for others too as she understands how hard it is to find a dog sitter.

OBJECTIVE
To help the community and connecting them
