I am a happy "dog-mom!" Our first day with Adriana was such a joy for me and Scooby. Our communications before his visit reflected her concern was providing the best care for Scooby and the other dogs in her care. Upon our arrival she was so welcoming and easy to talk with. She immediately showed me her yard where Scooby and the others would play and interact outside. I appreciated her manner and felt confident leaving Scooby with Adriana. Scooby was happy after his visit and I could tell he had a good time playing with the other dogs in Adriana's care. We had the "trial visit" as a prelude to a boarding stay. We are looking forward to Scooby's boarding with her. I'd recommend her without reservation as she truly shows her love for pets in her care!

Owners you've found your sitter! My name is Adriana and I'm a breed savvy, dog lover with a background in animal rescue. Caring for animals is my passion and this is my full-time business. I live in a single family home with a large fenced yard (1/2 acre) in a quiet neighborhood. My goal is to make your pet feel at home while they are here so you can relax and take a break from dog parent duties. I do also offer dog walks and drop in visits for the pups that prefer one on one care. If you are interested in Boarding or Daycare I'll send you a link to our new client intake form. Please keep in mind that we prefer to host a few friendly dogs at a time so it is important that your dog gets along well with other dogs. If you are uncomfortable with a group environment then this will not be a good fit for you. But if you're excited to see your dog running and playing with their new friends - this is the perfect place! Safety is our number one priority (fun is a close second) We require all dogs to be spay/neutred and up to date on the following vaccines - Rabies, Bordatella & Distemper. When your dog stays with us, I take several precautions to keep everyone safe: - All dogs are fed separately - Dogs are never left together unattended. All dogs are crated if I need to run a quick errand. - Dogs are crated separately to sleep at bedtime. Nap time is supervised. - We do not except dogs that howl or cry in their crates at night as we need our sleep too. - We are unable to host dogs that have high anxiety. THINGS TO KNOW WHEN BOOKING: - Please have your dogs Rover bio up to date. - I do require a meet and greet prior to the first booking as both sides need to ensure it's a good fit. - All new clients wishing to book overnight stays Monday - Thursday or bookings longer than 3 nights must do a trial booking in advance to ensure the pet adjusts well to boarding. This not only gives peace of mind to the pet owner but to the boarding household as well. 🐩 During your booking I will happily send you photos & updates of how your pet(s) are doing and adhere to any specific instructions that your little, or not so little ones may require. I am a full time pet sitter! Your dog will have supervised access inside my home as well as my large, fully fenced back yard! 🐕 Pick Up & Drop off: When you are headed over, please text me with the time your GPS says you will arrive at my house, For example: "On our way, we will be there at 10:34" Message me again "here" when you have arrived and I will come out and meet you and your pup. Please do not knock or ring the doorbell as this can disrupt and excite the pack. I will meet you and your pup when you arrive outside on the drive way for the doggie hand off on the day of your booking. During meet & greets I do not allow clients inside my home but I will happily send you photos of my home. Phone calls/Video Chats can be made prior to bookings upon request!
