Pet care experience

Family of dog lovers.

Hi Everyone! My name is Arlene and I am proud mother of 3 teenage children, and our 9 year old Golden, Kirby. I have grown up with dogs my entire life and have made it a huge priority to make sure my kids get the same experience with animals as I have. I love dogs, we have had a Pomeranian, Cockapoo, Maltese, Llasa Alpso, Shih Tzu and our current a Golden Retriever. I have had experience walking, house sitting, and boarding animals of all shapes and sizes and I would love to get the chance to get to know you and your dogs. I know how stressful it can be to kennel a dog, we own an apartment building so we have plenty of room. We have a fenced in yard. I have plenty of space if you crate your dog, or want to bring their dog bed.

Doggy Day Care • Apr 06, 2026

Arlene was responsive, easy to work with, and made our first experience leaving Lambeau for the day an stress-free one. Would use her again!

We needed someone to take care of our sweet dog for a week while we were on vacation and Arlene was the best. She took us last minute and had other dogs to play with and walk with, but not in an overwhelming way. We will definitely be reaching out again the next time we need a dog sitter.

This was our second time leaving the pups with Arlene and she was wonderful as always! She was very accommodating when we had to travel last minute for a family emergency and we are grateful for her support. The dogs were happy campers and I appreciated the photo updates she sent when she got a chance!
