Meet Ollie & Millie!
Ollie (3.5 years | Labrador/Retriever/Collie Cross)Ollie is a handsome, friendly brown boy who brings a lot of love to the house. He thrives on routine, getting fed twice a day, and absolutely loves his daily adventures at our local Riverhead parks. He is well-behaved and independent enough to be left alone for up to about 6h (occasionally a bit more). However, he definitely prefers having a human around! He would be the absolute perfect companion for someone who predominantly works from home and wants a furry office buddy.

Millie (9 years | Tabby Cat)Millie is our independent, low-maintenance queen. She is very self-sufficient and spends her day doing her own thing, but she has a massive sweet side and loves to curl up for a good cuddle when she is ready for some affection.
