Loving home environment
Pet care experience
We strive to be your pets “Home away from home” when you have to be away from them. We offer drop off and pick up times from 7am to 6pm Monday- Saturday. Sundays 5pm-6pm We do not schedule pick ups and drops offs on Holidays. We are dependable so you’ll never have to worry that your pets aren’t being cared for and loved the way you expect and request that they be. Daily updates and pictures any time I get the pleasure of being with your babies. Have more than one? My husband loves them as much as I do and is available to help out when needed. There’s no need to leave your beloved pet at a kennel when they can stay in a warm home environment and get individual attention. My experience: I’ve had a many pets in my lifetime including dogs, cats, birds, horses, fish and more. If you have a special needs requirements, I have no problem accommodating them. It’s our goal to give our guest a loving, fun environment to come to. We truly enjoy watching them make friends and having a good time. It’s Like going to a pup camp!

I can't say enough about Karen, she made me and my 3 fur babies instantly comfortable. She has a very welcoming home and you just can't help liking her. I was a little worried about leaving my 3 senior dogs with her at first, well really with anyone. I had just adopted the two sisters Ginger and Roxy and weren't sure how they would react to being left alone, plus my little boy Brody has been going through some very serious medical issues and I haven't left his side in over a year because of it. All 3 dogs took to Karen instantly, they explored their new surroundings and relaxed long before I did! They weren't afraid and mingled with the other dogs in the room. I was sure my Brody would be going crazy without me but he was the most comfortable there, he even had a play mate! I am so very happy with my choice in pet sitters, I can finally travel and not have to worry about leaving my babies with a stranger. I think they have definitely found their home away from home! Thank you Karen
Karen and John are awesome! We get pics and videos of our fur baby’s days! Excellent care and communication!!!
Karen is amazing! She spoiled our baby with love ❤️ So enjoyed the photo and video updates while we were out of town.
Our pup had THE BEST time with Karen and John! Daily pictures and videos were much appreciated and we could tell how much effort was put into our pup's care. We will definitely be back to visit!

Information Karen & John B. would like to know about your pet
I prefer to meet you and your pet before their first stay. This helps insure we are all a good fit and gives me the opportunity to get as much information as I can get so that your pet feels comfortable. This also allowed you to relay Information on Feeding schedules, potty preferences, and do they like to play fetch? What scares them? ( mine hates thunder storms and fireworks) I do not have a breed preference. I love them all and really enjoy the different personalities. We do ask that pets staying with us have a copy of up to date shot records that include bordetella so we can assure everyone stays healthy. We do not keep male dogs over 10 months old that have not been neutered or females that have not been spayed. Thank you
A typical day
Does your pet love to play fetch? Or play in water during warm weather? Maybe your fur baby would rather lay in the shade on our “doggie deck” and watch everyone else run and play. Whatever they prefer we try to provide so that they have a great time when they stay with us. Of course there will always be plenty of petting and love during their “Vacation” at our home.
