Experienced and trustworthy

Pet care experience

We’ve fostered dozens of dogs and have trained/worked with dogs of all sizes and breeds. I volunteer with a local shelter and genuinely love all dogs. Our house is a home - not a professional boarding facility. We are a family of six that loves dogs. Except for rare circumstances, we accept only one (sometimes two) dogs for boarding at a time, and we treat them like part of the family while they are here. They will hang out with us all day long and our kids help with keeping them active. They will feel the love of our household.

Ben was fantastic! Great communication, great caregiver, and great home! He welcomed Archie as a member of his family, and Archie could tell!

Ben is always great and Penny has loved her multiple stays with him. This time we got delayed due to flight cancellations and Ben did not hesitate to let her stay an unexpected extra night. Thank you Ben!

I work from home and usually the dog(s) are at my feet or nearby as I’m on my calls and meetings. We have a fenced backyard and I can easily let them out to run and play (always while supervised). We are extremely well versed with dog behaviors, and have cared for countless dogs over the years. We have no cats.
