Information Erika & Mark D. would like to know about your pet

A meet and greet is needed before boarding to ensure that your dog gets along well with ours and does not have any aggression towards our three children.

A typical day

We have so much free time to play with our dog whether it is fetch in or out of the house, wrestling, walks or even hide and seek! Our oldest child (age 11) is madly in love with all dogs and will spend all his time rolling around on the ground with them.

Family of 5 to love on your baby!

Pet care experience

I have never lived in a home without a dog! My husband and I got our 1st fur baby together before we were married and she was a part of our family for 14 years. After losing her I started fostering pairs of puppies through Helen Woodward until we were ready to add a new puppy to our family. She is a husky mix who is always up for anything and sleeps with our kids at night. She would love to play with your dog while you are away!

We felt confident leaving our pup with such a lovely family! He was well cared for and had a lot of fun with the family pup! We couldn’t be happier!

Vinny loved his time with Erika & Mark! They have a lovely home with a great yard for all the doggy play time! Vinny got along so well with their dog, Nora. They became instant besties and I loved I receiving all the cute photos and videos throughout the day! I felt so comfortable knowing he was in great care. Vinny would love to see Nora + Family again soon 🐾💘

Sasha loves her daycare at Erika & Mark's home, where she gets to visit her new friend Nora. It’s such a wonderful home environment — spacious yard, safe setup, and lots of play. I get regular updates and cute photos, which always make my day. My dog gets so excited every time we pull into the driveway — that says it all! Couldn’t ask for a better place for my pup to spend the day.
