Availability

BEFORE YOUR BOOK - Are WE a fit for YOUR pet? We have a clean, pet-friendly home with a garden setting in the yard, where pets have free access inside and out to be themselves, play, and relax. We understand dirt happens, but in order to keep our home cleanly pet-friendly, our expectation is that your dog is POTTY TRAINED to use grass or dirt outside and has good indoor pet manners. IF YOUR PET routinely potties on concrete, sidewalks, your patio, your carpet, your floor, puppy pads inside your home, or requires YOU to walk them every two hours because they will have an accident on their own, they are NOT a fit for us, or the other pets we care for. PLEASE NOTE: IF your pet uses human areas intentionally inside or outside (patio carpet, sidewalk, indoors), you will be charged $25 PER "ACCIDENT" cleaning fee.

Safety, trust & environment

We love all dogs, but in order to keep play and territory safe for everyone, we may have to limit the number of male dogs we will host at any one time, and we do not accept un-spayed or non-neutered pets. Our goal is a peaceful, fun, relaxing stay for your pet, so you have peace of mind while you're away that they are happy, well-loved, and safe at their Home Away from Home. We supervise all play activity, and all feedings are separated and supervised.

Information Andrew & Karrie M. would like to know about your pet

Please complete the Rover profile for your dog. This is very important because some of the defaults we receive by text for a booking may not be accurate. Dogs with special care needs for medications or conditions may require an additional fee.

A typical day

We start with a trumpet of Revelie at OH-Dark-30. All dogs line up for inspection with shiny tags and sparkly eyes. We proceed to calisthenics, obstacle course, and then feeding time in the mess hall before KP. JUST KIDDING... :-D Some of the dogs start with the neighborhood squirrel bark-off. The squirrel must love it because he shows up every day for it. To calm down from the excitement there's doggie yoga on the patio followed by trotting around the yard sniffing, doing doggie stuff, some digging, and some lizard hunting. After breakfast there's playing, more chasing, napping in the sun. We stay indoors when it's too warm, and then playtime resumes as the day cools off and shade returns to the garden. There is plenty to explore, and Fritzi is a great host to entertain and show everyone to the fun!

Home away from home!

Pet care experience

Hi, we're Karrie and Andreas! We have a fun, loving, and safe home, and someone is home full time. Your friendly pet will be treated like family in our suburban home with a fenced yard. Day care and overnight boarding are welcome. We've had dogs most of our lives, from small dogs to large dogs, from puppies to senior dogs. We've navigated the corporate life, and we understand the challenge of finding a good place for your pet when you need to leave for vacation or work. We've experienced the good & bad of daycare and boarding, so we know what's important to you and your pet. We provide a reliable and safe option for your pet's home away from home, where they can have a play date with some new friends.

Andy & Karrie are phenomenal! My 1 year old pup is very skittish and has a little bit of separation anxiety. I was nervous she would be too scared to stay but they worked their magic! She came home happy and tired. 🙂 Thank you Karrie & Andy!

Really helped us out on such short notice! We were so happy with the responsiveness and ease of booking. Peanut enjoyed her little holiday afternoon :-)

Andrew and Karrie were absolutely amazing with our Kali during her first overnight stay. From the start, they were kind, communicative, and clearly experienced with dogs, which gave us so much peace of mind. Kali came back happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. We are absolutely delighted with the whole experience and couldn’t have asked for better sitters. Highly recommend Andrew and Karrie to anyone looking for trustworthy and caring dog sitters!

Karrie & Andrew were so positive with Moose, sent lots of great pics during his stay with them. They're very kind, professional & comfortable with the dogs. It's a nice & calm atmosphere for the dogs.
