☀️AUG-SEPT PROMO: $35/night! 😎✌️

☀️$35/night for bookings during August 1st-September 30th! Discount applied at booking. Does not include Rover's booking fees. Holidays discounted to $43/night. When your pup comes here, you can expect heart, home, and a whole lot of wholesome fun! 🐾💛 Our business model is built on trust, transparency, professionalism, and safety. We are also fully insured by a third party. ✔️ We have owned a dog all our lives! We currently have one dog, Sadie, who is the most affectionate hostess you could meet. 🥰 Between Bryan and Emily, hours are logged volunteering at the humane society, dog-sitting for large and small dogs alike, and experiencing all personalities. With over 15 years of personal experience pre-Rover and over 5 years on Rover, we treat dogs personally, as the individuals they are! Developing a personal understanding is our priority so that the dog feels comfortable and well-loved, even if mom or dad aren't there. The activities naturally follow! Our family favorites are long walks, visits to the dog park, and zoomies around the house. Our family can't wait to add your dog to our fluffy circle of friends! We have one toddler. We have enough space to keep her separate from the dogs we take on and take every precaution to promote complete safety. Regardless, we do require all dogs to be tolerant of children as a baseline precaution! (*PLEASE NOTE* Dogs MUST be friendly with other dogs and children. A meet and greet is required prior to any new bookings. Due to the fact we want to accommodate daycare and boarding clients, we require as a prerequisite that your dog be good with other dogs as there may be times they overlap. We take every precaution to keep any overlapping dogs separate unless/until we are 100% confident they will be safe and friendly buddies! We will also *always* ask first about your comfort level with overlapping bookings! For new clients, overlapping is avoided if at all possible. Sometimes, it just happens, be it a few hours of daycare or a pickup/drop off. Thank you for understanding.)

Going on a 2-week vacation, was a little anxious because our cat Dolly was never left alone for that long. She's very affectionate and very people oriented and connects more with men. I picked Emily & Bryan because they work as a team and was hoping Dolly would connect with Bryan. Well, she did. The service was excellent, professional and fantastic communication and I highly recommend their service and Dolly does too.

Doggy Day Care • Jun 29, 2026

Our dog Baxter loves coming for day care with Emily and Brian. He has so much fun and is so tired when we come to pick him up because he gets to play so much.

Boarding • Jun 08, 2026

WOW! Emily and Paul were absolutely exceptional! They met Charlie’s needs and even went above. Charlie was so happy when we picked him up compared to another dogsitter where he was traumatized when we picked him up. We were well informed throughout the three day stay and had great photos of him.

Schedule

Emily is a stay at home mom. Bryan works a mile away and comes home for lunch! We try to make it a daily routine to fit a walk into the morning or the evening. Our schedules are extremely conducive to pet care!

Safety, trust & environment

A personal home environment with large kennel standards. ✨ Fully insured with policies built on trust. We live in the spacious upper unit of the duplex we own. Our home is dog-proofed - everything edible is either well out of reach or, in the case of our trash can, has a child lock. Our yard is not fenced in (soon to change, stay tuned!) so we ensure our dogs are securely leashed before exiting. Currently, we max out at two dogs taken in at a time, only with explicit owner permission to overlap dogs from different households. When we temporarily expand in August to September ‘26, we will raise that to 4 with the ability to keep small dogs (30lbs and under) completely separate from large dogs, and keep all dogs separate from each other. We regularly clean and sanitize dog spaces and dishes! Emily and Bryan are experienced in dog behavior. We monitor all play very closely and keep dogs in separate rooms at meal times. Dogs are encouraged to join us on the couches and overall treated like family – minus the access to human food, of course, much to their chagrin. ;)

A typical day

We’re all about a well-rounded time - get in some play, some bonding through walking or a brain game, and plenty of love! We also unashamedly talk to whatever dog we’re spending time with - it helps strengthen the bond!

How much time a day does he or she need companionship? Should we need to leave the house, is your dog crate trained? How is he or she with other dogs? Children? What allergies should we know about? Can we share our dog treats with your dog? What does he or she act like normally? On walks? What types of commands does he or she know? And the usual - routine, food information, etc.
