Unable to accept bookings

Pet care experience

***I am unable to accept bookings at this time. I have my calendar blocked on Rover but I somehow still get booking requests (?). *** I've never met a dog that I didn't love. I have lots of love to share since I am taking a break from having my own pup. I work from home and have a very flexible schedule to get out for fun with your pup. Your pup will enjoy walks, hiking, playing ball, cuddling or hanging out, what ever you and your pup prefer. I have extensive experience caring for special needs and senior pups. I've trained puppies/young dogs as well, so I can help continue their leash or voice training while you are at work our out of town. I use positive reinforcement when training. I have a large fully fenced back yard. Your pup and I will spend lots of time outside while I work from my back patio (of course weather permitting). As an adult I've had 9 dogs, most of the time I've had more than one in my home. From a breed perspective I've had 2 Australian Shepards, a Cattle dog mix, 2 mid-size Terrier mixes who were litter mates, a Bichon, a 4 lb Poodle/Chihuahua mix, a Brittany Spaniel and a yellow Lab. Some came to me as puppies, but most adopted me from shelters.

Barbara was great with our girl Cali. She sent us daily updates and pictures and took GREAT care of her. It was so nice to leave on a trip and not have to worry about how our dog was doing.

Barb was great! Clearly Cooper had fun based on the pics sent. We will definitely use her again!

Barbara is absolutely wonderful - just what we want in a dogsitter - responsible, mature, communicative, organized, and, of course, dog-loving. I completely trust having our dog stay with her. She kept me informed about what was going on during the stay and our dog loved her. We highly recommend Barbara.

Information Barbara K. would like to know about your pet

Before I take care of your pup it's important for me to know a bit more about them. Feeding schedules, dietary restrictions, belly rubs (or not), activity schedules, any thing at all that will allow me to take the absolute best care of your fur baby.

A typical day

Your pups stay will be customized to meet their needs. Long walks, hikes or dog parks? Got it covered. Chasing squirrels in the fully fenced back yard? Got plenty of them. Snuggles on the couch while binge watching netflix? That can be arranged as well. Please note that while my calendar indicates I will look after 3 dogs for Boarding or Day Care this is meant for clients that have more than one fur baby. This allows for those who do have more than one pup access to my calendar and services. I DO NOT host dogs from more than one family in my home at any time. This seems too stressful for possibly for your pups (and me...). :)
