Two dog parents & a in fenced yard!

Pet care experience

Hello! We would love to help you take care of your pets! My partner, Colin, and I have been a dog parents to two fun and mischievous pups for 4 years, and understand you want the best, happiest life for your pet. We also grew up taking care of our family's dog and cats. Rover has helped us give our pets the attention they need while we're traveling, and we'd like to help you do the same!

Alina was awesome and took such great care of my pup! He had so much fun playing with her and her dog. She sent pictures and updates & was an absolute gem. :)

Alina did so good with our dog! Transitioned our boy into her environment slowly and gave us updates so we knew all was well! We will definitely use her again the next time we are in her neck of the woods!

So friendly! Received photos and updates and felt very confident my pup was being cared for. We try to schedule with her when we can each time!

Safety, trust & environment

I have a flexible schedule, and Colin works from home, so there is almost always someone around to give your pets attention. We occasionally leave in the evenings to run errands and such, but have kennels to contain the dogs if needed. We allow our dogs on the furniture, but can prevent that if your dog is being trained to stay off. We have a doggie door to the fenced in back yard, and like to play Frisbee or fetch at lunch time and in the evenings.

Information alina b. would like to know about your pet

We would like to know about anything that triggers your animal, as well as your discipline/reward system. We'd like to know how your animal reacts to other dogs. We would also like to know if there are any house training concerns, or if there are any items your pet likes to get into (trash, laundry, food, etc.)

A typical day

On a typical boarding day, we'll get the dogs fed, spend some time at home/in the yard where the dogs can play, get some love, and get outside. We like to take the dogs for walks around the neighborhood or Cascade lake. Our evenings are usually chill, sitting with the dogs on the couch or outside throwing the frisbee.

We have our own home with a large fenced in yard and are happy to take your pets in for doggy day care or overnight boarding. We have two dogs of our own (a beagle mix and lab mix) who would love to have a new buddy to play with if that's something youre looking for. If you need your pet to get a workout, trust it'll happen here! If your dog prefers a more solo environment or if you have any concerns regarding interactions between animals/children/etc. please let me know so we can plan accordingly. *We do not have children, but there are kids in the neighborhood.
