Retired animal lover

Hi, Thanks for visiting my page. I'm a retired mostly stay at home animal lover with 2 small dogs, a 10 year old female yorkie mix (Molly) and a 8 year old shih tzu (Lucky) also an army of cats that are our fur babies! I have a long history of taking care of my friend's and family's fur babies. I can accommodate special needs for medication and feeding. We have a medium size fenced in yard for your pets to run & play. If your pet needs daily exercise I can take them for a walk. I have various sizes of crates for your convenience if needed. Their own bedding and toys would be preferred so your pet will be more comfortable in our home. We look forward to meeting you and your fur babies! And will take care of them like they were our own.

Barbara did such an amazing job taking care of our girls while we were gone. We were really nervous leaving them alone, but Barbara alleviated our worries. Our girls love her!

We cannot say enough good things about Barbara! We had a small emergency situation today and she was able to come last minute and follow some crazy instructions to get into the house and feed the cats. She has great attention to detail and our cats love her! She is dependable and reliable, and I trust her to take better care of the cats than our family members 😭 She’s the best and your pets are in great hands!

The most amazing caregiver to our dog Charlotte. She is loving, compassionate and dependable, she goes above and beyond. We know our girl is well taken care of when we travel. We would give her 6 ⭐️ stars if we could. ABSOLUTELY AMAZING!

I could tell Toby had a great day with Barbara when I returned to pick him up - he was glad to see me as is usual, but he kept going back to Barbara for more attention and hugs. Usually, when he sees me, he sticks close to me! I wouldn’t hesitate to have her keep Toby again in the future or to recommend her to others.

A typical day

We are retired so it’s pretty low keyed around here. We can play ball in the backyard or go for a walk in the neighborhood.

0 to 15 lbs
No females in heat
Barbara can host up to 2 pets per night
I prefer smaller breeds for boarding purposes but, have no problem visiting larger dogs. Are they house broken & up to date on all vaccinations including flea & tick protection? Do they get along with other dogs & cats?
