Pet care experience
Our home loves and welcomes floofy friends who are: 🐶 Small (under 20lbs) 🐶 Non-aggressive 🐶 Spayed/neutered 🐶 House trained Throughout the years, we’ve owned several dogs - poodles, labradoodles, havapoos, etc. We also have one human child who loves dogs as well. I work from home full time and the longest your pet would go without being outside during the day two hours. During weekends, the longest your pet will go without being outside is four hours. We have 2000 sq ft home and a fenced yard as well as two pets of our own to keep your pet comfy and entertained. We offer clean, cozy dog beds and blankets to our dog guests for basking in the sun or getting some alone time. Fresh water, and clean, safe toys for everyone to play with are also provided. If you prefer we crate your pet, please provide one for their visit. A FEW POINTS OF CONSIDERATION: 🐶 We have limited spots for boarding and daycare. We will prioritize guests who have a need for recurring or longer stays. If you’re an existing client, we will work around your schedule for both daycare and boarding to accommodate your schedule irrespective of our listed service days. 🐶 A meet and greet is required for all new dog guests. 🐶 Seasonal rates may apply during high demand periods such as Memorial Day, Independence Day, Labor Day, Thanksgiving, and Christmas/Hanukkah/etc. 🐶 Please be honest about your pet’s behaviors or needs. We will accommodate as much as possible and transparent conversations help us modify the location of our doggo gates, outdoor frequency, sleeping arrangements, etc.

So great with my Toy Poodle! The family treats my pup like one of their crew and my pup loves all the humans and all the dogs in the home. She gets excited at even the mention of the dogs' names enroute to a boarding visit. Return client that will keep returning 🤗🐾🤗🐾
Alba and her pups were fantastic with my dog Charlie! I was nervous to leave him for 2 weeks for the first time, but he was in the best hands with Alba! Her dogs were the perfect playmates for Charlie, and I love that she works from home just like I do, so Charlie was never left for very long during the days! I would definitely recommend Alba to anyone with a small playful dog, especially for a longer visit! Thanks again, Alba, we’ll definitely be booking again in the future!
Alba was so great with my little elderly lady! She was great on keeping me updated and sending me videos. We will definitely be visiting her again!!
Alba is the BEST! She cared for our Brussels as if he was her own and he fit in seamlessly with her family and pets. We highly recommend this loving family if you're in need of a sitter!
