Highlights
Pet care experience
Safe stay, happy dogs, lots of love
With more than 125 five-star stays, we have plenty of experience providing dogs with a safe, comfortable and fun place to stay while their families are away! We offer in-home boarding with a daycare-style environment. Dogs spend their days rotating between outdoor time in our fully fenced, shaded yard and indoor time to cool down, rest and relax. They’ll have opportunities to play and socialize with the other dogs in our care while also getting plenty of downtime throughout the day. My husband and I are home much of the day, so we’re able to keep a close eye on our guests and maintain a consistent routine. We’ve cared for dogs of all ages, sizes and personalities and are comfortable following feeding schedules, administering medications and accommodating reasonable care needs. Because we typically care for multiple dogs at a time, our home is best suited for friendly, social dogs who are comfortable being around other dogs during their stay. Our goal is to provide a safe, well-managed and enjoyable stay for every dog in our care. We’re happy to send photo updates during your dog’s stay and can set up a meet and greet for new guests. We’d love to meet your pup! All owners will be provided a boarding questionnaire to fill out prior to their pups’ stay. PICK-UP & DROP-OFF HOURS 🐾 Our regular pick-up and drop-off hours are 7 AM–9 PM. Monday–Friday: Because our family homeschools, pick-ups and drop-offs must be scheduled by 8 AM or after 1 PM. We are unavailable for arrivals and departures between 8 AM–1 PM so we can keep our school hours uninterrupted. Please choose a 1-hour pick-up and drop-off window when booking so we can plan our day and make sure someone is available to meet you. EARLY & AFTER-HOURS • Before 7 AM: +$10 early drop-off fee • 9-10 PM: +$10 after-hours pick-up fee • After 10 PM: We do not offer pick-ups. Your pup is welcome to stay overnight and can be picked up the following day at our regular boarding rate. DAYCARE Our daycare rate includes up to 12 hours of care. Stays exceeding 12 hours will include a $17 extended-care fee. We understand plans can change! If your scheduled time changes, please let us know as soon as possible so we can confirm we’re able to accommodate the new time. 😊
Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
Emily & Sam provide great loving attention to the care of my dog. I always have peace of mind when I leave her with this family. It's so nice to have this service available. Thank you!
I found this couple to be very informative and knowledgable when boarding my dogs. I feel comfortable with them and will be booking for my week long vacation out of town. They understand senior dogs and that is crucial for my two rescues.
Cody seemed happy and less stressed when I picked him up from boarding. Emily and Sam communicated well and I could tell Cody felt comfortable around them. Will definitely be using them again!
It was very easy to connect with Emily and Sam. We arranged for a meet and greet before I left my two boys with them. Both dogs were very comfortable with them and their dog. The stay was super smooth. My boys came home happy and tired from all the fun they had playing with the other dogs.
We are return customers. Emily and Sam take amazing care of our 3 pups. They always come back happy. They keep in good communication and send frequent photo updates.
Prince had an amazing time with Emily and Sam! I’m somewhat of a helicopter mom when it comes to my boy because of his background and his age/health. We met before the stay and went over everything regarding Prince’s background. During his stay, they did their best to accommodate him and make him feel comfortable and at ease. They updated me with pictures and texted me as well. I couldn’t have asked for a better place for my boy to stay. I knew he was loved and cared for not just by Emily and Sam, but by their kids as well! I have already rebooked for next weekend!

Schedule
I’m a stay-at-home mom, and my husband works from home, so one or both of us is home much of the day. Together, we’ve created a comfortable and reliable in-home boarding environment where dogs can safely settle into the rhythm of our day while their families are away.

We have a fully fenced yard with plenty of shade and grass for outdoor time, along with comfortable indoor spaces for cooling down, resting and relaxing. Throughout the day, dogs rotate between indoor and outdoor time based on the weather and the needs of the dogs in our care.
