We will absolutely use Harold again if the occasion arises! He was wonderful!”

About: I have a lifelong connection to caring for living beings—I've been doing it since I was a little girl. Our pets are truly our family, and I treat every dog in my care with the same love, patience, and attention I’d give my own. Whether it’s playful puppies or gentle senior dogs, I adjust to their unique needs. I offer a safe, loving home for boarding and daycare, with lots of affection, structure, and fun. My home is drug and smoke-free. My goal is to make you and your dog(s) feel comfortable, cared for, and genuinely happy while you’re away—because they deserve ALL good things! I work from home caring for a loved one while they're healing. Caring for dogs brings a loving healing energy into our home. As you know they nurture us as much as we nurture them, if not more! In my loving pet-friendly community, your dog will enjoy wide open spaces for safe walks, playtime, and potty breaks. I create a calm environment tailored to each pet’s needs. I'm experienced in administering medications—oral, intravenous, or topical—and can accommodate special diets with care. Crate-trained pups? I can easily crate your dog upon request. For everyone’s safety, all dogs are walked on-leash, so please bring your pooch with a secure collar or harness. Your pet’s well-being is always my priority.
