“Steve was awesome and very understanding when an emergency car situation happened! My Puppers was so comfortable with him she actually ate her food the first time she stayed. That never happens. Hoping to use Steve again in the future. Your dog would be happy to spend the day with Steve.”

About: I am the primary caregiver to a ~10-year-old golden retriever rescue; as she has discovered, your dog will be lavished with attention by myself, my wife and our three elementary school aged children. I work from home which allows me to check on your pet frequently as well take them on 2x daily walks or over to the nearby dog park, if desired. We have a large fenced yard for your dog to explore alongside and our own very well-mannered golden retriever. We can also crate your dog if preferred.

“Nano had a great time at Kelly’s! As before, Kelly was thoughtful to meet Nano at the door with high value treats and not make eye contact until Nano was comfortable in the new setting. Nano had lots of play time in their beautiful backyard. Highly recommend!”


“My puppy had a great time at Steve’s home, got home so tired of playing all day. Steve is responsible, paid attention to Coco’s need, and was communicative during the day. Steve’s dogs are very sweet. I brought back home a happy puppy, and that’s say it all.”


“Shayna was great! Kept us posted with pics letting us know how our somewhat nervous pup was doing. I appreciated that she encouraged a couple of short play dates before the longer daycare to help him acclimate. Thank you!”


About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats since I was 8. I have a cat named Lucky, and he is 3.5-year old. Both Lucky and I cannot wait to have your sweet family member visits our home, and stay a few days with us :) I currently work from home, so I have a very flexible schedule to meet your pet needs. I live in an apartment that have a yard, and the neighborhood is only 3-minute drive to the Washington lake and couple parks that can walk around I have two cat litter boxes, so you don’t need to bring the litter box for your cat if you don’t want to. My cat- Lucky, he is more than welcome to any other pets and willing to play with them. For dogs, I live in an apartment that have a yard, and the neighborhood is only 3-minute drive to the Washington lake and couple parks that can walk around
