Availability

I work from home, so I’m able to provide plenty of companionship and supervision throughout the day. I have three kids part-time, so I occasionally step away for school drop-off/pickup or an appointment, but dogs are otherwise part of my normal daily routine. I’m happy to work with you on drop-off and pickup times to make things as convenient as possible.

Safety, trust & environment

I keep things intentionally small, with a maximum of 3 guest dogs at a time, so each dog gets plenty of attention and supervision. Dogs stay in our home and have access to a secure, fenced yard for outdoor time and play. With my experience fostering 100 dogs, I’m comfortable getting to know each dog’s personality, routine, and individual needs. I’ll follow your instructions closely and keep you updated with photos and videos so you can relax knowing your pup is safe, happy, and well cared for.

Information Brian D. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know about any special needs, medications, dietary restrictions, or routines your pet has. I’d also like to know whether they are comfortable around other dogs and children, whether they are crate-trained or use a crate, and anything else that helps me understand their personality and make their stay comfortable. Honest information is always appreciated—my goal is to make sure your pup is a great fit for our small setting!

A typical day

Every dog gets a routine that fits their personality and needs. Days usually include plenty of outdoor time in our fenced yard, playtime, walks, attention and lots of belly rubs. There’s also plenty of downtime for naps and relaxing in the house. Because I keep the group small, I can give each dog individual attention and adjust activities based on their energy level and comfort. And of course, I’ll send you photos and videos along the way so you can see your pup enjoying their stay!

100 Dogs Fostered, 3 Guests Max

Pet care experience

I’ve always loved dogs, but my experience goes well beyond being a dog lover. In just one year, I fostered 100 dogs through a local rescue, giving me hands-on experience with dogs of all different personalities, energy levels, ages, and needs. That experience taught me how important it is to meet each dog where they are—whether they’re playful and energetic, a little nervous in a new environment, or simply happiest sticking to their familiar routine. I provide home-based boarding and daycare with a maximum of 3 guest dogs at a time. I work from home, so dogs get plenty of companionship and attention throughout the day, along with access to our fenced outdoor yard for play and fresh air (always with supervision). I also love keeping owners connected while they’re away, so I regularly send photos and video updates to let you know how your pup is doing. My goal is simple: provide a safe, comfortable, loving home where your dog gets the individual attention they deserve—not just a place to stay.

My 18 month old Chi has a great time with Brian, and all the "littles" running, playing and barking. A great place! We will be there regularly.

My dogs love Brian!!! They always seem so happy at his house and he is great at sending photos and videos throughout the stay. I also appreciated his flexibility with the pickup time when I was running late. I will definitely continue to book him.

Brian was so great! Our dog loved staying there and I really appreciated his flexibility when I realized I’d booked a day less than I needed.

Brian was very communicative with us and we loved all the pictures and videos. We were able to relax and enjoy our trip. We could tell our dogs enjoyed their time with Brian and we will be using him again in the future.
