About: We’ve been hugging dogs since we were kids, and we’d love to hug yours! Penny, Ciel, and our family enjoy hosting furry friends - we take care of them and our pups play hard with them! Please note: *We cannot currently accept bookings for unneutered/intact male pups *We host a large, rambunctious group of pups throughout the week - pups who prefer quiet, calm environments may not have an enjoyable experience here, and we will happily recommend sitters who may be a better fit for your family Hosting pups is our full-time job - your pups become part of our family while they’re here! We spend our days with our guests, playing and chatting with them, and can attend to everyone’s needs regularly throughout the day. Our 24/7 dedication to giving your pups the best experience while away from your home makes us a great choice for day care and socialization opportunities! We accept bookings between 7am and 7pm; we will consider bookings outside these hours on a case by case basis, potentially for an additional cost. Our availability for picking up and dropping off is limited but we aim to be as flexible as possible. Reach out with your needs and we’ll work out an arrangement that works best for all of us! Our entire yard is fenced in - there’s room to run full speed! We can adjust feeding schedules as needed to accommodate your dog’s diet. In good weather, pups are free to go inside and outside at their leisure. We don’t require pups to use crates while we’re gone or overnight, but if you prefer your pup be crated at any time, we’re happy to do that and have multiple available. Male pups will wear a belly band for the first 24 hours of their stay, at minimum - this soft, absorbent band fits around their belly and attaches with Velcro on their back. Belly bands reduce marking behavior, especially in unneutered males. You may bring your own, but we can supply them, free of charge. Using belly bands keeps our home calmer, cleaner, and fresher by eliminating marking behavior and reduces anxiety for future pups by giving them less reason to want to mark over the scent of previous pups. We have indoor and outdoor security cameras in many locations that can be helpful to review if any safety situations arise. The safety of all of our pups is very important to us! (They’re also great for catching fun footage!)

About: I’ve been caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and personalities for over 15 years. Neighbors, friends, and family have trusted me to walk, feed, bathe, and care for their pets while they’re away. I’m attentive, patient, and great at reading animal behavior, whether that means giving energetic dogs plenty of exercise or providing calm, gentle care for seniors or anxious pets. I treat every pet as if they were my own. I work part-time and set my own schedule, which allows me to be very flexible and accommodating to my clients’ needs. I’m able to adjust my availability for walks, drop-ins, or extended care, including weekdays and weekends, and I prioritize clear communication to ensure your pet’s routine is followed as closely as possible. I have a fenced-in yard and prioritize a calm, safe environment for all pets in my care. I have two cats who are kept comfortably separated with their own space when dogs are visiting, as I understand transitions can be challenging. I’m very mindful of introductions, happy to crate dogs if needed, and always follow owner preferences and routines to ensure pets feel secure and well cared for.

About: I have had pets my whole life! I have experience with cats, dogs, horses, chickens, fish, frogs, turtles, and small furry critters such as hamsters and rabbits. I Have cared for new born puppies and kittens when the mother was not able and elderly pets that need a little extra love. Pets that are very energetic or relaxed. Pets that are having a hard time medically and need fluids or pain medications. I have cared for wounded animals and healthy ones. I'm available most days during work hours. When your fur baby needs love and care during the day while you are away I can be there for pets, walks, snacks, medications, a simple check in and more. Every animal is it's own self and all need different care. When pet sitting while friends or family are at work or on trips I always make sure the pet has a good long session of play, affection, walk or forms of exercise, clean and full water and food dishes. Check for any accidents that need cleaned up or litter boxes that need tending. Then always be sure to double check the yard and home locks are secure before leaving.

About: Hi, my name is Maddy! Ever since I was a little girl, animals have been such a influential part of my life. From rescuing and rehabilitating sick or injured kittens to starting my own dog boarding business, I have years of experience caring with all types of animals. My children share the same love for animals that I do and look forward to pampering your fur baby. If you have an athletic or active dog, we are the hosts for you!!! Trips to parks, hiking the trails, in-town walks, and play time with kids will happen daily. If your dog is less active, we can bring our activity level to where your dog is most happy and comfortable. We are experienced with all dog breeds and sizes! Any specific requests for them? Let me know! My minor is in nutrition and inspired my own line of grain-free doggie treats that I would love to share with your pup during their stay. I always keep the water bowl full and pets happy and healthy. I’ll even give them a bath if you want! Just bring their shampoo if they have sensitive skin. Quality time with your pup is a top priority in our home, and we want your pup to have a wonderful experience with us. Our number one goal is to make your pet feel comfortable and like part of the family. I am a homeschooling mom! My schedule allows me to be with your pup 100% of the time! Our flexibility allows for extended stays as well. We have a large fenced in yard and our own pup to keep your fur baby active and happy when the weather permits. Pups are supervised at all times and never allowed off-leash for walks. We take multiple walks daily!

About: Hello! I’m 20 years old and a lifelong animal lover who’d love to offer friendly and trustworthy care. All my life I’ve had a sweet spot for animals, I have a furry friend of my own I’ve recently adopted almost a year ago now. I provide safe and engaging walks with lots of attention. Growing up I have always been around animals, my grandma currently has a senior dog (cocker spaniel) so I have some experience with administering medication. Larger dogs are no problem for me. I’m currently looking for something fun and active to fulfill my time with, I’d love to be a resource for you and your pet! I’m currently free in the mornings and afternoons to care for and walk your pups! I’m looking for fun things to fill my day with. I provide attentive care by ensuring feeding, playtime, comfort, and a clean stress-free environment. While on walks I will be sure to keep them active and safe.

About: I have had pet cats ever since I was a little girl. Starting in college, I also began to volunteer with animal shelters and rescue programs, and discovered I had a passion for taking care of animals. I don't mind putting in the hard (and dirty) work to make sure your pet gets fed, watered, played with, and has a clean environment to stay in. Pets bring so much joy to our lives, and I would love to help keep your pet happy while you're away. I am available for drop-in visits for cats or dogs. I also have experience administering oral medications and insulin injections to cats and dogs, and nebulizer treatments for cats. I always double check that I am 100% available before confirming any bookings! As I am a resident physician with a highly variable schedule, I generally CANNOT accept long-term requests. I am always respectful of all my clients' properties, and will keep your place clean and tidy in your absence. I am careful to lock up every time I leave.
