“Kaia had a wonderful time at Tammy’s! She absolutely loved it! She was so tired from all the playing, she slept for the rest of the evening and the next day! We will definitely be back!”
2. Lisa N.
“We are so happy we found Lisa for our puppy, Belle! Belle was very taken care of and pampered, and even came home with the cutest little bandana at the end of her week-long day care stay. Lisa and her family are wonderful, and we won’t hesitate to have Belle over the next time we need doggy day care!”

About: I have had cats and dogs since I was 6 years old. I have experience taking care of them from the puppy/kitten stage on up to elderly. I am also experienced with giving them pills and trimming cat claws. I have also spent many hours walking dogs that like to pull. I work weekdays 8am-5pm, but I work from home 90% of the time so I can be flexible. I'm home most weekends because I have two pups of my own that I take care of. I have two dogs and a cat of my own. The dogs are pit bull mixes and total love bugs; they just want to be snuggled and baby-talked to. The cat is very sweet and sticks to himself during the day. I have a fenced in back yard and live in a quiet, dog-friendly neighborhood. I have two little girls that love to help with our pets and are very gentle and sweet with them. I'm flexible with needs and willing to adapt to what the individual pup or kitty needs!

About: I have about one year of professional experience in the industry, but have had many pets throughout my life. I have worked in the dog daycare industry for about two years. I have also had and cared for reactive pups! I currently working full time, however my mornings and evenings are filled with tons of play time with my favorite four leggers. When staying with us, there’s always someone in home to care for pups 24/7! I have a big unfenced yard with long lines in the front and the back so pups can be separated while outdoors. We have a complete living space on both floors so any pups can be separated and still feel at home. We have three pups and a few cats that get along well with others! All of our pups are crate trained, and we have many extra crates around the home in the event we have some crate trained friends over.
