“I would like to clarify first that Angela did not cancel within 24 hours of booking as the previous review states. I made an error, booking the same day twice. Angela noticed and was able to cancel. I really appreciated her honesty even though it shows poorly on her review. This was our first overnight visit and she was amazing with the fur crew! She was so amazing that I don't think the 2 dogs and 2 cats ever left her side, nicknaming them Velcro lol. Everyone was cared for,outdoor birds fed, house was immaculate. I can't wait to go away again and have Angela stay over. I'm sure the fur family will be excited too!”


“We used Jeff for the first time when visiting family out of town but couldn't bring our dogs. From the first meeting and introduction, our dogs and him got along and it was a perfectly made match! He was so kind and gentle towards them and he allowed the dogs to come to him at their own pace and did not force the introduction and it allowed our dogs to warm up right away! Jeff was excellent with our animals the whole week and left the house just as we left it if not better, which was so nice to come home to! It was an extra piece of mind knowing that our animals were safe in their own home and that our house was also taken care of. It was such a better experience then leaving them in a kennel! We would definitely recommend him and will rebook in the future!”


“Bruna was amazing ! Very communicative, sent us lots of updates , photos & videos. Left our house exactly as we left it. Will definitely be using her again :)”


“Brandie did an exceptional job watching our two dogs. She's was very accommodating to our needs and we were without worry. Thanks so much Brandie!”


“Paula was fantastic! She was very kind and gentle with our geriatric dog. She’s a great communicator and extremely trustworthy. We had peace of mind while away from our fur child. We highly recommend Paula!”

About: I've owned a dog or many dogs since I was 18 years old and I am now 53. I specialize in small dogs requiring a safe active loving home environment and im home with them all day or they come with me. I have consistently raised each of those dogs until their natural passing.... I'm not uptight or strict in my care however I am the alpha at my house. I have a very annoying dog whistle that's effective for all dogs and I have never had a problem with recall.(may require training your dog to recall) I prefer consistent training and discipline over crate training but my care for your pet is based on your wants and needs (as long as it doesn't conflict for the others i have in care) and especially consistency for your pet. I allow them on the furniture with training if they are permitted. I train my own pets and can also help with yours. Dogs cats birds reptiles or whatever ...I can also pick up and drop off your pet. I have a special room just for cats as well. Additional tasks required additional costs. (Poor recall, extra needy or whiney or Barry, bigger dogs and or hairy dogs as you know would required extra attention time or cleanup there by reflecting on price. ex: smaller dogs are smaller messes less space/ clean up /big dogs are more hair/foot prints/muscle for care etc. My routine has been the same for the last 35 years... I wake up and I go immediately to take my pets to the dog park where they can be let loose off-leash to do their business... it can take anywhere from 10 or 30 minutes. Then they play or snack or rest at home happily until midday which for them would be approximately between 12 and 3 o'clock I would take them out for another run around same way off-leash And once again at the end of the day before bed between 6 and 10 depending on time of year. That's an example based on a summer schedule however my daily routine would be based on your pet's needs and my preference would be to do 3 times a day if I have them in my full-time care. I have a completely fenced yard with adequate room to run.. I do have 2 other dogs as well that will assist in entertaining yours and keeping them comfortable and assist in training. I also have 2 cats that have no problem with other dogs or if they find the other dogs seem anxious they will hide and not be a bother. I use an open dish policy for food and I treat my pets as though I would my kids. I don't take my eyes off them unless they are safe. I give grain free good food and treats are dried duck or chicken or freeze dried liver or salmon. No milk bones here.

She does 30 mins check ins, makes sure they haven’t chewed through the walls, gives them lots of treats and pets and sends us the cutest pictures so we don’t miss them as much! Thank you Patty, for your professionalism and your genuine care! You’re the best!”
