Doggy Day Care • May 12, 2026

She took great care of Tennessee while I was at work. Likely will request doggie daycare with Barb again.

Wonderful sitter! She shared updates and very fast communication. My dog absolutely loved her. I know he was well loved during his stay.

Dexter was eager to get to Barbara’s house. She takes good care of him & I feel very comfortable dropping him off at her place.

Schedule

I’ve been a dog lover my entire life and have recently retired. I’ve watched my family’s and friend’s dogs for decades. Babysitting your dog would be my pleasure! (:

Safety, trust & environment

I have a big fenced in backyard, and love sitting outside myself to play fetch and enjoy the fresh air. I watch 1-3 dogs on a daily basis now, and they always go home happy and ready for bed.

A typical day

I have a fenced yard so I will always throw ball for the dogs and sit outside on the shaded deck. I leave the door to my house open, so the dogs can come in and out as they please.
