“It was so nice to not worry about our "puppy" while we visited the Ark Encounter and Creation Museum. I was very anxious about leaving Molly since she is far from trained, but she had a blast and was exhausted every evening after daycare. Christopher & Karen's home is clean, spacious, safe, and fun for your fur babies. I will definitely use them whenever we're in the area.”
“Jane is the absolute best. We trust no one with our fur baby other than family and now Jane. My dog was so happy to see her. Jane is an angel!”
About: I have a lifelong love for animals and have been fortunate to share my home with many pets over the past decade. I’ve cared for countless dogs and currently have a well-trained, friendly dog of our own. As a stay-at-home mom with a flexible schedule, I’m able to offer personalized attention to any pets in my care. We go for walks twice a day and have a spacious, fenced-in yard where we play and enjoy the outdoors when the weather is nice. I’m mindful of my schedule, ensuring that no pet is left alone for extended periods of time. Our home is pet-friendly, and we use only gentle, non-toxic cleaners and fragrances, ensuring a safe and comfortable environment for your pet to feel at ease. Pets are welcome on furniture and all parts of the home.
“Dianna responded very quickly and it was great to have Xena with another Blue Merle Aussie. Cared for her for the day while we went to the Ark Encounter and sent pictures of play time and walking. Would use Dianna again if we li Ed nearby.”
“Ridley's first time at a day home, everything went well and he seemed to have a good day. Angel was friendly and helpful, expect to come back again!”
“Laura provides a great place for dogs to visit. The back yard is ideal and our two big doggies had plenty of place to burn off some energy free from our hotel room. Laura is very accommodating and experienced in handling dogs. We would definitely go back again if we’re in the area.”
“After one meet/greet and one daycare, I am extremely comfortable putting the lives of my 3 babies in Tammi's hands. This is coming from a very over protective, picky, dog lover!”
“Karen is kind and attentive to our young dog. She sent pictures during his stay with her- I loved that part. I highly recommend Karen and her family for doggie day care”
“Ruth and her husband took excellent care of Murphy (my dog) they made their home, his home, and their fenced in back yard was wonderful for potty breaks! Thank you both so very much! You helped both Murphy and I feel right at home and so comfortable! We both enjoyed our vacation time!!! It was a real pleasure meeting you both!”
About: I have been a pet owner all my life and always have had a passion for animals growing up. I have been professionally pet sitting for many years now. I have 2 rescue dogs named Gemma and Ollie who I absolutely adore. I enjoy what I do and would be happy to watch your fur babies! I do accounting during the day but work from home so I have plenty of time to care and play with your pups! I have flexible drop off and pick up times too because of working remotely. I have a fenced yard with 2 friendly dogs to keep your fur baby company. We also have a camera to keep an eye on your pups if we step out for a bit.
“Amazing experience of leaving our puppy for almost two weeks! They were very accommodating,very responsive and obviously have a great love for dogs! It was a wonderful place for our 11 month old puppy. She had many playmates and lots of space to run around inside and out in a very dog loving household- Thank you so very much !!!! We will be return customers?”
“Amanda was great with my 4 month old puppy Captain! She eased my nerves having him be watched for the first time. I got updated throughout the day so I could know how he’s doing. ☺️”
“Very nice. Worked out well with us going to the Ark Encounter.”
“Amazing, is the only word I could use, my dog needed a place to let out her energy while we went to the creation museum. And they facilitated that need. She was ready for rest of the road trip after her visit. I definitely will use them again when I am in the area again.”
About: I am a very experienced pet owner and caretaker, I currently have 3 dogs and 6 cats. I’m very excited to have the opportunity to work with and give some love to each and every pet I meet. I hope to provide as much assistance to every animal lover who needs a little extra help. If you ever have any questions about myself, my pets or any other concerns you may have, don’t be shy to ask, I’m happy to answer all of your questions! It’s important to me that every pet is taken good care of and given every drop of attention I have to give, as well as their parents. I currently work from home, on my own time. which makes it incredibly easy for me to plan and schedule requests, just message me and lets talk dates and times! I have a fenced in yard for playtimes, as well as an isolated dog bedroom for crates, beds, toys, separated feedings, and any other needs your dog may have. I can always keep your pet separate from mine if you’d like. My home is set up to be accommodating for pets, we have 2 living rooms and a dog designated bedroom. The downstairs living room has a door for anyone who may need some time alone, and the dogs bedroom has my crates and extras for feeding times, sleeping, and for when we leave them alone. I like to keep things safe and not open the door for opportunities to flourish, that’s why all feedings are kept separate and done in their crates, and play times are closely monitored with full supervision.
About: I’ve taken care of animals of all kinds for most of my life. I have experience training puppies and older dogs of several breeds! My house is equipped with plenty of cat items and a fenced backyard for the puppers! There is plenty of space for them to run around or take a much needed quiet break. I currently own 4 cats and 1 dog. All of my four legged companions are extremely friendly with other animals. I am a stay at home mom with a 3 year old during the week and on weekend I work a very minimal part time job but my husband is home. Your pet won’t be home alone hardly if at all! *I ONLY TAKE CRATE TRAINED DOGS* My house is well equipped for multiple types of animals. Though in the rare occasions animals are left alone I ALWAYS keep them seperate from my own pets for everybody’s safety! I have a fenced yard and plenty of upper ground so dogs and cats have places to go to get away when they need a break.
