Reviews
This was our first experience with leaving our dog in someone else’s care. Barb was fantastic! Great communication before and during the dog boarding in her home. I appreciated the time she took to get to know our dog even before the event, in asking us about Bear, about her routine, feeding, bathroom and the commands or words Bear is used to. Barb kept us up to date on their adventures, sent us pictures from the walks in the park. We felt comfortable with leaving Bear in her care from the first contact, phone call and the actual first meeting. I knew Bear would have a great time at Barbs place. We will definitely book with Barb again and highly recommend her. Bear had a great time!
Barb is a remarkable person who will love and care for your dogs as if they were her own. Simply put, our dogs past and present have really connected with and loved Barb. I always say that dogs are the best judge of character and they have their way of showing it through reciprocal love. Your dog(s) will let you know as soon as they connect, that Barbara is a perfect match! Our standard poodle, Kona literally jumps twirls in the air when Barbara steps in the door then cuddles up beside her as close as she can get! She can’t wait for her walks and runs with Barb! Barb will provide the most compassionate care for your fur babies. Having an innate ability to connect with dogs makes her the ideal caregiver in your absence. Barbara has owned dogs her whole life and really knows how to properly and compassionately care for them. Her experience and skills through having dogs of her own will surely give you the confidence and peace of mind you will want when entrusting your pets unto her care. She has proven time and again that she can be trusted to give the best care and love to our dogs. Whether your dog needs medication administered, active walks or runs, play time, or just cuddles and love, you will be able to relax and enjoy your time away knowing you have left your precious pet in the best possible hands!

Information Barb K. would like to know about your pet
I like to know all the details.What your pet is used to having in detail is very important to me. What special needs they may have, ie; how do you let your dog out of the car? I had a specific way with my old dog. I believe it is best to keep the routine as close to perfect as possible, and am able to acquire that with detailed information.
A typical day
Take to the forest, lake or park, smell all the p-mail they want. Play fetch, encourage good behaviour. I have trained my dogs to play hide and seek, with a toy or myself.. Love to play with dogs. Swimming, fetching the stick or ball.....
