Doggy Day Care • Aug 17, 2026

We needed somewhere to house our senior dog for six hours while visiting town. Barbara took her in and kept her safe. Thank you!

My dog Ruxtin had the best time ever at Barbara’s! . He played all day with the other dogs and came home happy and exhausted. Barbara provides a welcoming, comfortable, safe environment for her guests. She clearly loves dogs. This was Ruxtin’s first daycare experience and we will become regulars. Thank you Barbara! Bonnie

Barbara was so great with our Junie and very flexible with our needs. She’s a gem and we will definitely use her again if we’re ever in the area! Thanks Barbara!

Schedule

I am retired and have all day to pamper your pups like they were with family. I have raised a large family myself. We always had multitudes of pets around the house. I have started to specialize in smaller and older dogs. I really love pampering and caring for the seniors. I love to prepare special diets and am really good at giving meds .

Safety, trust & environment

I have a large fenced yard which is impossible to escape. Lots of comfy overstuffed sofas and armchairs. Both of my beloved ancient Dauchsunds passed away last year. It has been so great welcoming Rover dogs into my home and heart. I love dogs and provide a lot of attention and affection for each guest. I can take care of any food or medication needs.

Pets

A typical day

The dogs in my care have free run of the house and backyard. Most dogs bring their own bedding but they are invited on the sofas and chairs. Unless the owner specifically asked not to let them . The dogs always lie about it if asked directly.

0 to 15 lbs
Dogs over 1 year old
Spayed and neutered dogs only
No females in heat
Barbara can host up to 3 pets per night
Just let me know about any special requirements for your pet and I will ensure they get what they need. I can't recommend pill pockets highly enough for any doggos on meds. I wish I had discovered that decades ago.
