“Brigid did a great job taking care of our senior dog for the first time. She was very communicative and sent us photos of various happenings during the days that Jessie was at her house. We appreciated knowing that all was well while we were away. Brigid was very conscientious in following through with all instructions for our dog’s care. We have already booked her for another time.”

“Carolyn was great! My dog seemed to have a great time and enjoyed her sweet pup! She was very accommodating with drop off and pick up times. Carolyn sent pictures to keep us at ease as it was Paddington's first time with her. I would definitely recommend!!”

Abby J.

“Tiffany took care of our newly adopted rescue dog for two days and it was the first time me have left him with anyone new. Tiffany was loving and caring with Kevin. She sent daily updates with pictures of all the day’s activities. We were out of state and had to extend our agreeded apon stay by several hours and Tiffany accommodated the request happily. We would use Tiffany again and will recommend her to anyone who is looking to board a dog. Thank you so much Tiffany. Job well done”

“Without a doubt the best care for my dog has been by Camilla. She has a fantastic setup for the pets that come to her home and they all get lots of exercise, playtime, and love from Camilla. She always sends actions shots of my dog playing with other dogs at the dog park, swimming in the kiddie pool, and snuggling on the couch.”

“Chris was attentive to my dog's need and was easy to communicate with and was flexible to work with. My dog enjoyed his time under Chris' care. Would highly recommend”

Mitesh M.

“Sylvia and Mark (and fam) are great. They took great care of my old girl and were super understanding of her evolving idiosyncrasies. Would definitely trust them again and highly recommend.”

Jess M.

“It is such a relief to find a sitter for your dog and have peace of mind. This couple are a gem. We received a bunch of videos and pictures to show how much fun our dogs were having while we were attending an event. Highly recommend!”

Patricia M.

“Taylor is our favorite!! She takes such a good care of my little one!! This is the 4th or 5th time with her. She is always so nice!! Thanks Taylor!!”

Laura P.

“Tatiana was wonderful. I felt so safe with Lola there and I could tell by the pictures I was being sent that Lola herself was very comfortable there as well. She clicked right away with everyone there (dogs and people), and snuggled into her own little spot. All of the positive messages and pics helped a lot, but I could tell that Tatiana and her daughter were dog lovers and that they had been doing this for a while. Thanks, guys, for making Lola feel so comfortable and cared for there, which made me feel a thousand percent better about that during what I had to do while she was away (a funeral). And I was able to add another day because we were all too exhausted and sick to pick her up at the normal time, which was a lifesaver. Tatiana was so gracious and helpful! We hope to see you again sometime soon. ?”

Olivia C.

“Catherine took great care of my 2 dogs while I was away for 2 weeks. I received pictures daily and they both were very happy. I highly recommend her.”

Elizabeth F.

“Ranger and Maddie had an amazing time with Chelsea! She sent constant updates and pictures to let me know how they were doing. Her house is very clean and it's a great environment for the dogs. She is very professional and I look forward to using her services again. I highly recommend!”

Josh F.

“This was our second booking with Stephanie. She was very accommodating with our dog. It was so helpful that she dropped the dog at our home just as we arrived back home. Our dog arrived happy and well cared for. Stephanie has been reliable, a good communicator, and flexible with each of our bookings. We couldn't ask for a better fit!!”

Michelle L.

“Debbie did a great job taken care of our sweet Oko. We were able to enjoy our vacation without worrying about her safety and security. Would highly recommend.”

Ra Monne P.

“Kathleen took excellent care of my chihuahua, Cody. Over the course of a month, I boarded him with her a few times each week, and I always felt confident he was in great hands. She was responsive, kind, and incredibly patient, not just with my (very energetic!) chihuahua 🙃, but with me as well. I’m so grateful for the care she provided and would highly recommend Kathleen to anyone looking for a trustworthy sitter.”

Mireille

“I can’t say enough about Jaya & her family taking care of my dog Barley like he was one of theirs. She was quick w/ responding, and her communication was thorough. Barley loved his “sleep over” playing w/ Jaya’s cute pup Biscuit in her big back yard. She made me feel like Barley was safe & would be cared for just like her own. We’ll surely be hoping she is available again for our next pet sitting need. Thank you Jaya !”

About: With years of devoted pet care, puppy training, senior support, rescue volunteering, fostering, and animal‑care schooling, I bring heartfelt, family‑level love and patient, intuitive attention to every dog I care for. Pet care is woven into my daily rhythm — from morning check‑ins to evening walks, caring for our three rescues in my wide, fenced‑in backyard is my daily cup of sunshine! Their love fuels my purpose and inspires me to help other pet parents care for their furbabies while they handle life’s responsibilities. My home was chosen with dogs in mind. Our wide, fenced‑in backyard offers shade, space, and freedom — originally built for our first rescue who needed safety, comfort, and room to explore. With no stairs inside, senior pups move easily and confidently. Every room is pet‑friendly, and dogs are welcome on furniture to relax as part of the family. Crates are available only if your dog feels safe choosing one — never forced. Our three rescues freely roam indoors and outside, receiving gentle, attentive care, and your furbaby will be treated with the same love, respect, and family‑level comfort. (Note on Profile History: If you scroll down, you will see two negative reviews from 7 years ago regarding scheduling issues. At that time, I lacked the firm boundaries I have today. I experienced burnout, took a long hiatus, and completely rebuilt my life and business. Today, I operate with strict capacity limits and automated schedule rules to ensure a flawless, ultra-safe care environment.) Caring for my three resident pup-rescues, 3 indoor cats, as well as our 13year old male cat who is feral, is my primary passion and my full-time daily focus. Because this is my dedicated lifestyle, I provide a highly structured and dependable environment for your furbaby. **(Note on my Review History: If you scroll down, you will see two negative reviews from 7 years ago regarding scheduling issues.

Today, I operate with strict capacity limits and automated schedule rules to ensure a flawless, ultra-safe care environment.)** Run by a dedicated Mother-Daughter duo, our home daycare & boarding services grew out of a lifetime of deep compassion and rescue love. We began to call our home "Park-In-The-Yard on Lee Ave"-- Our backyard is a park, and every dog is treated like family. Our daily lives revolve around rescuing and fostering small and medium dogs. This patient & unconditional love became second nature to us. We open our hearts and our home to your furbabies, treating them exactly like members our own pack. Daycare operates Monday through Friday with a strict drop-off window between 7:30 AM and 9:30 AM, aligning perfectly with my morning routine. Our weekend boarding begins on Friday evenings as daycare wraps up and runs through Monday morning. This predictable schedule ensures that transitions are always calm, organized, and stress-free for the dogs. **(Note on my Review History: If you scroll down, you will see two negative reviews from 7 years ago regarding scheduling issues.

I enforce strict safety boundaries: I only accept small-to-medium dogs and strictly limit care to a maximum of 3 guest dogs at any time. My home features a secure, attached garage breezeway that serves as a double-gated transition zone, ensuring no dog can ever bolt near the street during drop-offs.Inside, my home is a staircase-free, pet-friendly environment where dogs are welcome to lounge on the furniture, beds, or right in my lap. Crates are entirely optional and only used if a dog seeks one out for feeling safe and secure. Our wide, securely fenced chain-link backyard is a true outdoor paradise built for comfort, safety, and freedom to experience zoomies! A custom area with a patio cover which provides adequate shade and has a dedicated cooling station, cooling mats, and a small dog pool with a water hose for fun, safe summer splashing.
