Information Clara A. would like to know about your pet

My drop off and pickup time: Monday through Saturday 7am-9am and 3pm-6pm. Sundays 3pm-6pm. We have no preference of breed or size. We would like to know about any aggressive behavior. And any sort of limitations. They are required to have their shots.

A typical day

Our dogs have a large yard to run and play, for dogs that like to swim, they can play in the pool. We play ball with our dogs and cuddle on the couch with them. Both male and female dogs have to be neutered or spayed by the time they are one year old.

Flexible, safe and loving stay

Pet care experience

I am a huge dog lover. I have a 10 year old Rottweiler named Abby and a 9 year old yellow lab named Bailey. I have taken care of animals my entire life. Dogs are a large part of my family. I have volunteered with hospice with my therapy dog. I am retired and will be home all day with your pet to provide special time with them. I have enjoyed dog sitting for family and friends and look forward to providing the utmost experience for your dog. I have a large yard for them to run and play. I can offer a safe and loving home for your dog while you are away.

I am grateful to have found Clara! She was responsive and communicated with me before and throughout Olly's stay. I am appreciative of her kindness towards me and my pup. Her home kennel is clean and the dogs have a very comfortable place to rest after a fun day of playing!

Clara is great! Her kennels are so clean. Our Evelyn came home happy and smelling nice!😊. She is an older dog who needs medication and I felt very confident leaving her in Clara’s hands!

Our third time returning for a long stay, and Murphy is happier each time he goes for a getaway at Clara’s! She is so accommodating, warm, and kind, and her spot is perfect for pups.
