Pet care experience
If you'd like to board your pet in a family home versus a typical kennel style set up, you've come to the right place! I'm Emily, my husband Mario and I work together providing full time pet care. We offer dog and small animal boarding in a family home setting versus a typical kennel style set up. As well as check-in visits, dog walking, and doggie day care. We take a limited number of guests at a time, in order to create a calm and safe environment for everyone. We have several regular M-F doggie daycare guests, so there are usually other dogs here to play with if your pup enjoys socializing! If we happen to be watching a younger/rowdy dog, we can easily keep them separated on different levels of the home, if we have an older dog who don't want to be bothered by rambunctious pups! We don't use crates, unless it's requested by the owner. Since we offer pet care full time, we are home the majority of the time. If we're away from home on the weekends or evenings, each guest dog has their own private area of the house, dogs from different households are never left alone together unsupervised. The home has a large, fenced in yard, and we back up directly to Margruder Branch Trails where the dogs love going for walks and wooded hikes. We make sure to check in daily with photos and updates on how they're doing. Please reach out if you have more specific questions, and if you'd like to set up a meet and greet! ***If you've decided to move forward with a booking, please read on about our policies and procedures*** • Drop off/pick up times: On weekdays, we are available in the mornings between 7:30-10 am, or in the afternoons between 2:30-7:30 pm. On weekends we're typically available for drop offs/pick ups between 9 am - 7 pm. Drop offs and pick ups are by appointment only, and should be scheduled one day in advance. • The short distance between your car and our front door might not seem like a big deal, but all dogs must remain on a leash unless they're inside our home or in our fenced backyard. • All boarding guests will need to provide current vet records showing that they're up to date on shots.
Reviews
Emily is fantastic and I would trust any dog of mine to her care. Plus they have fun!
Emily is awesome! She always gives us specific details about her visit with our dog, and she takes the best pictures!
Emily and Carlos take wonderful care of Paige. She jumps out of the car and never looks back. It helps us in leaving her when we know she is comfortable with this family, and pet friends.
What a fabulous time our Winnie had today at daycare! This was her first time, and she can’t wait to play with her friends again soon! Emily and Mario are just exceptional!

State park directly behind my house with lots of walking trails. Fetch and playing with my dogs will take place in my back yard. I am also happy to work on training commands if you'd like.
