Courtney and Sherwood are so nice and took good care of Dodger! We had a previous meet/greet with their dog and all went well, so we booked for the next day. They sent us pictures and texts throughout the day and I could tell Dodger was doing well there. We feel good knowing he’s cared for in a clean and happy household!

I work from home Monday through Friday, so your pup will get lots of attention and care. I’m available most weekends and will never be out of the house longer than it takes to run some brief errands. I have a fenced yard and provide full supervision. Dogs can be separated or crated if requested, ensuring a safe, calm environment tailored to each dog’s needs.

About: Everyone says I am a natural with animals. I have not met a pet that didn’t melt my heart . Every interaction with an animal is one of a kind and special in its own way. Dogs truly leave imprints in your heart they are family. I believe every dog is deserving of love , cuddles and lots of patience. Repetition and Redirecting with positive reinforcement are the keys to a well behaved pup. I will offer only what is best for your furry friend. Be assured that they will be in great loving hands with me and my family. When booked for day care or boarding. I would be following a schedule with your pet. We will have a fun day filled with routines, exercise and play time for cognitive stimulation My biggest goal is to make your pet feel safe and comfortable. They will always be kept separate from other pets I have at all times. Unless you request your pup to socialize. I will offer your pup a schedule that is fitting for them.

We had a wonderful experience with Natalia! Our beagle is very active, but after spending the day with them, he was calm and happy, which says a lot! It’s clear that they truly care for dogs. We also really appreciated that we were always in touch throughout the day. Highly recommend!

About: With over 16 years of hands on pet care experience, I’ve had the joy of looking after dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities. I grew up surrounded by family dogs, taking an active role in their feeding, grooming, bathing, exercise, and playtime. Over the years, I’ve learned how to read a dog’s body language, keep them mentally stimulated, and make them feel safe and loved no matter how long they’re with me. My girlfriend Goldie is currently in school to become a Vet and has been caring for animals even longer than me! , Your baby will always be in a pet-friendly, knowledgeable environment. My flexible work schedule as a tattoo artist means there’s almost always someone home to give your dog attention, walks, and companionship. Hi there! 🐾 I’m a lifelong dog lover who’s been surrounded by wagging tails and wet noses for as long as I can remember. From feeding and grooming to bath time and endless games of fetch, caring for pups is something I truly enjoy. I share my home with my amazing girlfriend, who’s in school to become a veterinarian…so your furry friend will always be surrounded by love and animal know-how. I’m a tattoo artist with a flexible schedule, working nearby from 11–5, and when I’m out, my girlfriend is home. When she’s in class, I’m here meaning your pup will never ever be alone. We live just steps away from a big park (perfect for adventures!) and have plenty of indoor space as well as a fenced in front and back yard! Perfect for zoomies, snuggles, and playtime. Our house is stocked with toys, treats, and cozy spots to nap in.

About: I have been around all types of dogs in my life, ranging from Yorkies to Bully breeds and everything in between. I love to have fun, go on walks, play fetch, practice training, snuggle and give belly rubs, and so much more! I’ve been pet sitting since I was 13 for friends and family who either needed just a few hours of watch time, or a week+ while they were on vacation. I am very versatile, adaptable and would love to watch your fur baby for you! I am currently working from home with scattered hours so I have a lot of availability to leave the house for a walk, or board for a few days! I analyze each environment to create the safest space for the animal to feel most comfortable. I’ll make sure they have a comfy spot to rest, food and water, and they will always be on leash when outside unless we are in a gated yard.

Can’t recommend Courtney and Sherwood enough. They are both very friendly, kind, and took care of my dog like it was their own. My dog has separation anxiety and they made sure to send pictures and updates throughout the day to let me know how he’s doing. You guys are great and I would strongly recommend you to anyone. Yogi told me to tell you thank you!
