About: Thirty years of experience of opening my home and to families that cherish and love their dogs. They’re considered beautiful guests in my home and treated with respect. I’m newly retired and home full time. Have plenty of time for walks and activities for your dog. Also, privacy if he/she requires quiet time. I have a beautiful new home with a fenced in backyard. Plenty of space to run around and play. I can also offer quiet space also.

“Sarah was AMAZING! She saved us on our trip to the smokies when we had nowhere to leave our 2 pups on the last day. She was super accommodating and best of all, our boys had the best time! If we’re in the area again, I would use Sarah again for sure knowing my babies are safe and happy too!”

She was so responsive and communicative in the lead-up to the booking, and kept me up to speed with how my pup was doing in my absence. Can't thank you enough, Kiki!”



“Shannon and fam were wonderful! Shannon sent several pictures during the day to show how the day progressed! I know my dogs had an awesome time. Thank you again for taking care of my doggies and treating them like part of your family!”
