We ended 2024 with one last furry guest — Marx the adorable Maltipoo puppy — just three days before welcoming the new year. His pawrent needed to run some errands on a Sunday and reached out to us for last-minute help. We were more than happy to provide both transport to and from our home, along with a few hours of puppy day care.

This was our very first time caring for such a young pup, and Marx definitely brought a new kind of energy! Very active, bouncy, and endlessly curious, he kept my boys amused the entire time. As a playful puppy, he explored everything and even nibbled on our hands — harmless, of course — though it did make my younger boy a little cautious.

We kept Marx well-entertained and engaged throughout his stay, making sure he felt safe, loved, and comfortable. With his visit, we wrapped up our 2024 journey with four wonderful guests. And with such a joyful ending to the year, we’re excited for many more pups to join us in 2025!
