Pet care experience
Stay-at-Home Dog Tia
Does your doggo need a stay-at-home auntie in its life? Get ready for lots of photos and updates because your babies will get 24-7 attention at Casa de Barbara. ** I am a work-from-home writer/editor, and my husband is a scientist working in biotech. Aside from our very friendly poodle mutt (pictured in profile), the last member of our household is our daughter. She is great with dogs, having grown up learning how to nicely pet our pup. ** Some of the dogs that I have watched over the years have been coming to me longer than I’ve known my husband. We look forward to adding yours to the pack! **

Thank you so much for taking care of Leia while I was away!
So nice to have someone consistent to take Indie out while I’m at work. A little walk, a little fetch and some cute pictures. Thank you Barbara.
Barbara is amazing! She's kind, responsive, and incredibly attentive, and it's clear how much she genuinely cares about the pets she works with. She's reliable, communicative, and Archie had so much fun today!
Followed desired plans. On time and both dogs loved her. Will definitely rebook
Beatrice had a great time! I received updates and pictures throughout the day, will definitely rebook for future needs!
Brisket had a great day with Barbara and Quillo. She was super responsive and we really appreciated having a meet and greet before booking to make sure the dogs got along. She kept us updated with photos throughout the day and we knew that Brisky was in good hands. We will absolutely book with her again!

Safety, trust & environment
My family is what you might consider perfect for your dog’s stay: pretty boring! 🤣 We don’t go out much, and if we do, we don’t stay out late. ***

A typical day
Options for nature walks abound! I have also been toying with the idea of offering personalized sonnets as an add-on to the sleepover experience. Is this something that you’re interested in? Let me know!
