Safe, Loving Home Dog Care

Loving, Structured, & Safe Care Hi! We’re Felicia & Larry, and caring for dogs is part of our everyday life—not just a service. With a background in Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA), we bring a calm, structured, and positive approach to every dog we care for. That means we understand behavior, read body language, and help dogs feel safe, confident, and comfortable—whether they’re energetic puppies or older dogs who need a slower pace. What your dog’s stay looks like: Supervised care all day (we both work from home) Regular walks, playtime, and attention A calm, structured environment tailored to your dog Very little time left alone (only short errands) We treat every dog like part of our family. We follow your pet’s routine closely—feeding, walks, crate use, and any special instructions—so they feel right at home. Safety is our top priority: We introduce dogs slowly, supervise all interactions, and pay close attention to comfort levels at all times. 📸 You’ll also get regular updates and photos so you always know how your dog is doing. Whether your dog needs structure, patience, or just lots of love - we’ve got you covered.

Felecia and Larry took very good care of my pup. They made sure she was stimulated, felt comfortable, and well exercised. She got multiple walks a day, and even had friends to play with constantly. I had full trust in them. They were also very flexible with me after my flight was delayed a day, which I appreciated massively.

Felicia and Larry were great with my dog! I liked the daily updates and photos. They were able to watch my dog over a holiday weekend on short notice. My dog had fun with their dogs and she was well cared for.

Am always reluctant to leave my dog with strangers when I need to be out of town, especially if I have to leave him with a facility that operates like a state penitentiary for dogs (individual cells, very limited time for exercise, no employees on site much of the time, etc). Felicia and Larry’s home is a better alternative. Suburban Aberdeen home with room for the dogs, where they are usually interacting with each other and with humans. The owners’ two dogs, Jack and Blade (the very affectionate puppy) are welcoming to new dogs and happy to interact with them. The house has a back yard and there is a large adjacent undeveloped area directly area behind the house that is good for frequent walks. The dogs also love to go to the nearby off-leash dog park. My dog was initially anxious and confused being in a new place but soon fell into the routine and interaction with people and other dogs, playing with toys, etc. Felicia and Larry keep a close eye on the dogs, their food consumption and other behaviors and interactions. Especially appreciated the daily photos and messages tracking my dog’s progress. Their young daughter is also very affectionate with the dogs.

Felicia and Larry were amazing with my girl! You could really tell that they have a love for animals. They kept me updated about her everyday, and included pictures! Not to mention how truly accommodating they are, i had a last minute emergency and had 30 minutes or so to find a sitter.. They got back to me immediately. Literally saved the day, i couldn’t have asked for anyone better to watch Nova.

Doggy Day Care • Aug 03, 2026

Felicia and Larry were a dream for me and for Jax! My papillon has separation anxiety and is older, a little blind and a little deaf. Not only did Felicia and Larry make him feel right at home, they went above and beyond to make sure he had his own space to relax, and when he started getting restless overnight, they took him into their bed and he settled right down. They provided regular updates and pictures through the weekend and were quite responsive. On top of them providing wonderful care, they were incredibly flexible with my schedule. My original local sitter had a family issue, so I needed someone in Aberdeen in less than 36 hours. They worked with me in booking the first day, and as my schedule developed over the weekend, they were so kind in helping me, keeping Jax overnight and through the next day. I was so pleased, and absolutely will book again the next time I’m in the area.

Schedule

I work from home and my fiancé is home as well, so dogs are rarely left alone. Pet care is built into our daily routine, with regular walks, playtime, and supervision. Any time away is limited to short school pick-ups or errands, and we make sure dogs are safe and settled before leaving.

A typical day

Our family loves going on walks on the nearby trails with our dog, Jack! He makes sure we get walks in at least twice a day. We are always playing while in the house. Jack has more toys out than our daughter at any given time. We have a fenced in dog park nearby for high energy days.
