Your Pet Deserves A Vacation Too!

Hi! I’m a dedicated animal lover, experienced dog caregiver, and proud single mom who turned my passion for dogs into a full-time career. Working from home allows me to provide personalized care and plenty of attention to every dog that stays with us. I’ve been dog sitting for over four years and have extensive experience with dogs of all ages, personalities, and energy levels. Although I grew up with cats, I fell in love with dogs as an adult and now share my home with a pack of Siberian Huskies. As a responsible breeder, I’m especially experienced with puppies and understand the patience, structure, and care they need. Guest dogs are welcomed as part of the family and have free roam of our home. We also have crates available for dogs who are crate-trained or whose owners prefer them to be crated. My Huskies have their own separate “doggy mansion” in the yard and rotate outdoor playtime, allowing guest dogs to enjoy a calm environment and individualized attention. My goal is to provide a safe, fun, and stress-free experience where every dog receives personalized care, lots of love, and plenty of exercise. I know how important it is to trust someone with your furry family member, and I strive to give every pet parent complete peace of mind while they’re away. I can’t wait to meet you and your pup!

She's amazing! Her dogs are so good. My girl felt right at home. I was nervous with leaving my girl for the first time. But seeing her with my girl I knew I made the right choice.

Schedule

Caring for dogs isn’t just something I do—it’s my full-time job. Because pet care is my career, I’m home throughout the day to provide consistent supervision, companionship, potty breaks, playtime, and plenty of love and attention. Your dog’s routine is my priority. I follow each pet’s individual schedule for meals, medications, exercise, and rest to help them feel comfortable and at home. Whether your pup is energetic and playful or prefers a quieter environment, I make sure they receive personalized care every day. When your dog stays with us, they’re treated like part of the family and receive the dedicated care and attention they deserve.

Safety, trust & environment

Your dog’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. As a full-time pet care provider, I strive to create a calm, structured, and loving environment where every dog feels safe and at home. Dogs in my care are treated like family and are never left unattended for long periods. I take the time to get to know each dog’s personality, routine, and needs so I can provide individualized care. Meals are fed separately to prevent food guarding or accidental food swapping, and I closely monitor all playtime to ensure safe and positive interactions. Our home features a securely fenced yard where dogs can enjoy supervised outdoor play, potty breaks, and exercise throughout the day. For dogs who are crate-trained or need a quiet space to relax, I have crates available to accommodate their normal routine. Communication is important to me, so you’ll receive regular updates and photos during your dog’s stay, giving you peace of mind while you’re away. My goal is for every guest to leave happy, healthy, and excited to come back for their next visit.

Pets

A typical day

A typical day in our home starts early, around 6:00 AM, when everyone is up and moving. The dogs begin their day with a potty break and some morning playtime before coming inside for breakfast. For safety and to ensure everyone eats comfortably, all dogs are fed separately. Throughout the day, our home has an open, relaxed routine. We have a securely fenced yard, and the dogs enjoy supervised access to come in and out for potty breaks, outdoor play, or quiet time inside whenever they’d like. Whether your dog loves to run and play or prefers to lounge on the couch, we tailor the day to their comfort and energy level. Dinner is served between 4:00 and 5:00 PM, giving everyone plenty of time to digest, enjoy evening potty breaks, and settle in for the night. Most of our canine guests are ready to wind down by around 8:00 PM, but my oldest son is usually up a bit later and lets the dogs out for one final potty break before heading to bed. Our goal is to make every dog feel like they’re part of the family while maintaining a consistent, comfortable routine that helps them feel safe and at home.

To help make your dog’s stay as comfortable and stress-free as possible, please let me know about any special needs or routines before drop-off. This includes feeding schedules, potty routines, medications, allergies, or any behaviors you’d like me to be aware of. If your dog is crate-trained or requires a crate while I’m away from home or for sleeping at night, please let me know. I have crates available for guests who need them. Please also label your dog’s food with their name and include clear feeding instructions, including the amount to be given at each meal and the total number of feedings per day. The more information you can provide, the better I can maintain your dog’s normal routine and help them feel right at home.
