“Celia was very kind, understanding and helpful she accepted my last minute request. Great person and I felt extremely safe leaving my husky with her, she made sure to attend ALL my dogs needs. She made sure my dog was safe and loved for her stay! I absolutely recommend her to anyone needing someone to take care of their pet! 10/10 service and very trustworthy.”


“We are exceptionally impressed with Lynne. Not only does she have a welcoming and caring personality but we could tell she treats dogs as family. We were hesitant to leave our dog because he needs extra TLC since he is getting old and suffering from arthritis, but after meeting Lynne for the first time, we could tell our dog, Bobo felt at home. Lynne sent us daily pictures and reassuring messages of how Bobo was doing which made us felt more at ease during our vacation and we knew he was in great hands. Thank you again Lynne for taking care of Bobo!”

“Mk was amazing! My dog had a great time during the stay, got plenty of attention and playtime. Mk was super attentive, friendly, and made sure my puppy was comfortable and happy. I also got updates throughout the day which gave me peace of mind. Highly recommend for anyone needing reliable and loving care for their furry friend!”


“Flor was amazing with both of my dogs! I had concerns because my smaller dog tends to get snappy around other dogs, even his fur brother, but Flor made sure to do slow introductions and keep a close eye on things and he actually did great. She also sent lots of pics and videos throughout the stay. I will definitely be using Flor again!”


“My pup had a great time.... When we 1st did the meet and greet, I loved how relaxed she was with my dog. Even though my dog is very hyper and jumps a lot She was not put off by it and knew how to handle her.... I also loved receiving pictures and knowing that she was having a good time. Next time I go out of town I know who my pup will be staying with.”

About: With years of hands-on experience caring for small dogs, I’ve looked after everything from playful puppies to sweet senior pups. I understand their unique needs—from gentle handling and cozy spaces to lots of love, patience, and personalized attention. Whether it’s cuddle time or short walks, your little one is in safe, loving hands with me. I’ve raised 6 of my own pugs (all were disabled and from shelters) and have one Morkie. All had aged gracefully, received lots of love and tlc and eventually passed on. I’ve got my Morkie left and I am just sad and lonely so have turned to caring for others’ fur babies.. Pet care is a natural and joyful part of my weekly routine. I’ve structured my schedule to prioritize flexibility and attention for the pets I care for. Whether it’s daily walks, feeding, playtime, or cuddle sessions, I make sure every pet gets the consistency, love, and care they deserve. Since I work from home and have a flexible schedule, I’m able to give pets regular attention throughout the day, not just check-ins. It’s not just a job for me—it’s a part of my lifestyle. When caring for pets in my home, I create a safe, calm, and cozy environment where your dog feels loved and secure. I follow their usual routine as closely as possible—whether it’s feeding times, favorite toys, or nap schedules. Small dogs especially enjoy my clean, fenced-in yard and dedicated pet spaces for lounging and play. I never leave pets unattended for long and provide plenty of attention, short walks, potty breaks, and cuddle time throughout the day
