15+ Years of Rescue Dog Experience

I’ve cared for rescue dogs for more than 15 years, and I currently have three friendly dogs at home. I’m used to all kinds of personalities—shy, energetic, or senior—and I make sure every pup feels safe, comfortable, and at home. I’m attentive, patient, and committed to giving each dog the care, structure, and affection they need to feel relaxed and happy during their stay.

I had a great experience with Christopher and Maria watching Nala for a week! They did a great job keeping me updated with messages, photos, and videos, which gave me peace of mind while I was away. Nala is a shy dog and hadn’t been boarded recently, but Maria and Christopher were incredibly patient and caring with her and did a great job helping her feel comfortable. I really appreciate all the care and attention they gave her. Highly recommend!

They took amazing care of Onyx. He had lot of friendly dogs to play with. Picked up a happy and tired pup at the end of the day.

Sirius seemed very happy during his stay. He played a lot with other dogs. We got regular updates about Sirius. Will definitely leave Sirius here again when we go out.

Casper had a wonderful week-long stay with Christopher and his family! Casper is a picky eater, but they made sure that he ate his food by holding the bowl for him—an effort that I really appreciate. On top of that, they sent me videos often, reassuring that Casper was having a great time playing with his friends. I would send Casper here again!

Schedule

I have open availability and spend most of the day at home, so dogs are rarely left alone. Caring for my 3-month-old baby keeps me on a home-based routine, which means your pup will always have supervision, company, and plenty of time for walks, play, and relaxation in a calm, safe environment.

Safety, trust & environment

I have a large fenced backyard where dogs can run freely and safely. My friendly dogs love having visitors, and we always do slow, calm introductions. We follow each owner’s routines closely and can crate your dog if needed. I make sure every pup feels safe, supervised, and comfortable—just like part of the family

Pets

A typical day

I like to keep dogs active, happy, and mentally stimulated. Depending on their energy level, I’ll spend time playing in our big backyard, go on neighborhood walks to explore new smells, and enjoy calm indoor time with plenty of affection. I adapt each day to your pup’s personality and needs.

Please let me know if your dog has any special needs, routines, or behaviors I should be aware of. We want to follow your instructions as closely as possible.
