***Meet and greets are available on a limited basis for bookings over 2 weeks in length*** ***All bookings are considered tentative until you confirm them and complete the booking (i.e. I will not hold dates that are unconfirmed*** I’ve taken care of dogs and numerous other household and neighbor pets for over 20 years. In 2021, I got my first dog Cerberus, a European Doberman, and have had a lot of fun training him. In 2023, I got Nyla, a Belgian Malinois. Unfortunately, she passed away in March 2024. She was being spayed and her heart stopped while she was under anesthesia and was not able to be resuscitated. She was a very sweet and intense dog who loved to play with all the guest dogs. We miss her everyday.

Ratings and reviews
Sent regular photos and videos. My puppy was obviously happy to be with him and his dogs. We will definitely rebook in the future!!
We love Barnabas! :) Many thanks!!!
Barnabas was great to work with!! Lots of communication with pet updates and pictures. My dog was treated great! Definitely recommend Barnabas if you need someone to watch your dog. House is very clean and dogs get their own space and play time with others. Bryan
Great service and we loved all of the updates we received!
Troy had a great time during his stay! Barnabas was very kind and accommodating with our boarding needs and of troy's recent allergy developments. He made sure Troy is upto date on his medications and gets the care he needs. I received regular updates, photos and videos from him as well.
Great care! Thank you

The typical daily schedule is as follows: 7-8am - dogs are let outside for a potty break and brief playtime and breakfast 8-11am - quiet hours (dogs are either crated or if they're well behaved out in the house under supervision) 11am-1pm - mid day playtime and walks 1-3pm - quiet hours 3 - 3:30pm - mid afternoon playtime and potty break 3:30 -6pm - quiet hours 6-7pm - brief playtime; evening meal 7-9pm - quiet hours 9 - 9:30pm - final potty break for the day
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
To the extent that I can accommodate your dog's regular schedule I will but the above schedule has kept all the dogs I've boarded happy. FAQs: What do I need to bring? Your dog, their food, collar, and leash; optional items include treats, bed/blanket, and toys. Will my dog be crated? Yes, when I am out of the house, at night, and various times throughout the day as the dogs are rotated through their activities. Dogs do not stay crated for more than 3 hours while I am home and they are usually happy to be crated after playtime. Will there be other dogs on site? Almost always. Will you walk my dog? Yes, if they are good on leash. If they are not there are plenty of games I can play with them in the backyard to get them their exercise. Can we do a meet and greet in advance? Yes; however, I will need a minimum of 2 weeks’ notice between when you send the booking request and the start date of the booking request, and until further notice, I will only be doing meet and greets for bookings over 2 weeks in length. I may accept last minute booking requests but will not do last minute meet and greets. Other Notes: I send updates between 7am and 7pm each day and try to keep all non emergent communication between those hours. I will not respond to messages sent to me after 9pm at night.
