Home all day. Calm, loving care.

⚠️ SUMMER WARNING — This Is Important All the inside couch time they want! Your pup is treated as my own. As temperatures rise, the difference between in-home care and a boarding facility becomes a serious safety concern. Your dog will NEVER be left outside in the heat here. No overcrowded outdoor cages. No risk of overheating. No tension from being packed in with unfamiliar dogs that can lead to fights, stress, or injury. Just a cool, comfortable home with someone who genuinely cares ABOUT ME Your dog isn’t a reservation and source of $$. They’re family. I offer in-home boarding, daycare, drop-in visits, and dog walking — all with one simple guarantee: your dog gets the same love, attention, and care I give my own sweet Jazzy Belle. I’ve created a calm, safe, and loving environment where your pet is truly treated as part of our home — not just another booking. DOG BOARDING (In My Home) I take one dog at a time — or up to three from the same family. That’s it. Your dog has my full attention, always. Never left alone. I follow your dog’s existing routine as closely as possible, because consistency is comfort. But we also go the extra mile — we cook fresh, wholesome meals for our girl Jazzy and are happy to do the same for your pup. Think home-cooked rice, air-fried sweet potatoes, and canned tuna — real food made with care. Prefer to keep your dog on their normal diet? No problem at all. You’ll receive regular updates throughout the stay so you never have to wonder — just relax knowing your dog is safe, loved, and living their best life inside a real home not outside in cages and penned up. DOG DAYCARE Calm, structured, and attentive — modeled after your dog’s routine at home. Whether it’s their first time away or they’re a regular, your dog gets focused one-on-one care, positive interaction, and a relaxed, comfortable pace. No chaos. No crowds. Just good company. DROP-IN VISITS (At Your Home) Your home, your rules — I follow your instructions closely for feeding, walks, medications, and companionship. I treat your space with complete respect and keep you updated every step of the way so you always feel at ease. DOG WALKING Safety and reliability, every single walk. I match your dog’s pace and comfort level, stay alert to surroundings, and keep a calm, steady energy. Every outing is a good one. FRESH FOOD OPTIONS — What Makes Me Different Most boarders hand your dog a scoop of dry kibble. Here, they have options: • Cooked white rice — gentle on digestion, perfect for sensitive stomachs • Air-fried sweet potatoes — nutrient-rich, naturally sweet, zero additives • Canned tuna — lean protein that dogs absolutely love • Kibble blend available — mix fresh food with their regular diet for an easy transition • Your diet, fully honored — prefer to keep them on their normal food? Done. No pressure, ever. WHY FAMILIES CHOOSE ME OVER BOARDING FACILITIES • Only 1 dog (or 1 family) at a time — your dog is never competing for attention • A real home environment — not a kennel, not a cage, not a facility • Your dog will NEVER be left outside in summer heat • No overcrowding means zero risk of dog fights or stress • Fresh home-cooked meals available — not just a bag of kibble • Routine-based care that keeps dogs calm and comfortable • Regular photo and message updates so you always feel connected • Every dog is treated the way I’d want someone to care for my Jazzy Belle FOR FIRST-TIME ROVER USERS I completely understand the nerves — handing your dog off to someone new is a big deal. I want you to feel confident from the very first message. I communicate openly, follow your instructions carefully, and treat your pet like my own. Your peace of mind matters just as much as your dog’s comfort, and I work hard to earn both.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

Boarding • Feb 27, 2026

Chad was so incredible to our dog. He really let her become part of the family. He gave her delicious food, let her sleep with the family in the bed, took her on plenty of walks, sent a ton of updates. She was in heat and he handled the diapers and her need for love so well. I felt so assured that she was having a really good time, and when we got back to her she wasn’t anxious at all. This was one of the best experiences I’ve ever had on Rover. I can’t recommend him enough. He was super flexible and accommodating and overall, a really good person who gave our girl so much love and comfort.

Doggy Day Care • Feb 05, 2026

Chad was fantastic! They were super attentive to my pup and stayed in touch with quick updates the whole time. The large fenced-in yard was a huge hit, and I really appreciated how flexible they were with my schedule. It’s such a relief finding a sitter this reliable—we’ll definitely be back!

Dog Walking • Jan 13, 2026

Absolutely wonderful! Chad does an amazing job and my Husky is always happy to see him. He takes great care of my puppets. He has a great connection with animals and my dog is always well walked and exhausted afterwards. If you want some who treats your dog like their own; then hands down, don't think, choose Chad!

Schedule

Because I work remotely as a Realtor and property manager, I don’t need to leave the house while boarding. I’m home 100% of the day, allowing for consistent supervision, regular walks, feeding on schedule, and plenty of attention. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine, not around it. My flexible schedule allows me to adjust to each dog’s needs, and I’m also available for pickup and drop-off if needed. We’re a warm, cozy, dog-loving household and look forward to welcoming you and your best friend into our home.

Safety, trust & environment

DOG BOARDING (IN MY HOME) I treat every dog the same way I would want someone to care for my sweet Jazzy Belle. For first-time Rover users, I understand how important it is to feel confident leaving your dog in someone else’s home. I follow your feeding, walking, and rest schedule as closely as possible, since routine helps reduce anxiety and keeps dogs comfortable in a new environment. Your dog will be closely supervised, loved, and treated like part of our family. I’m always happy to provide updates so you can feel at ease while you’re away. DOG DAYCARE If this is your first time using Rover, you can feel confident knowing your dog will receive calm, attentive care in a safe, supervised environment. I stick to your dog’s normal routine as much as possible because consistency helps dogs relax—even during short stays. Your dog will get positive interaction, structured activity, and plenty of attention, just like I give my own. DROP-IN VISITS (AT YOUR HOME) I know it can feel stressful having someone care for your pet in your home, especially if you’re new to Rover. I treat your home and your pets with the same respect and care I expect for my own. I follow your instructions closely for feeding, walks, medications, and companionship, and I’m happy to send updates so you know your pet is safe and comfortable. DOG WALKING For first-time Rover users, safety and reliability are always my top priorities. Walks are done calmly and carefully, based on your dog’s pace, comfort level, and routine. I pay close attention to leash handling, surroundings, and your dog’s needs so you can feel confident your pet is in good hands—even when you’re not home.

Pets

A typical day

Dog Boarding A structured routine, early morning activity, and a fenced yard help dogs settle in quickly, sleep better, and feel at home during longer stays. Dog Daycare Multiple walks and supervised play keep dogs engaged without overstimulation, so they go home exercised, calm, and happy. Senior and Soecial Needs Dogs Consistent schedules, controlled play, solo walks when needed, and close supervision reduce joint strain, anxiety, and fatigue. High-Energy Dogs & Puppies Early yard time, multiple walks, park sniffing, and mental enrichment help burn energy in healthy ways and prevent boredom or destructice behavior.

Before your dog stays with us, please let me know anything that helps keep them comfortable and happy. This includes special needs, diet details, medications, allergies, or anything unique about their care. I also like to know if your dog is house trained, crate trained, and where they normally sleep so I can keep nap time and bedtime familiar. Please share what food and treats they eat (and bring them along), as well as any routines they’re used to. All dogs—big, small, young, or senior—do best with a schedule. The more I know ahead of time, the smoother their stay will be. A happy guest is a calm guest.
