Pet care experience

Loving, Calm In-Home Dog Boarding

I am an experienced and dedicated pet caregiver with over 15 years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments. As a dog owner of three myself, I understand how important it is to find someone you can truly trust with your pet. Friends, family, and neighbors have relied on me for years to board, feed, bathe, and provide attentive daily care for their dogs. My home features a secure, fenced-in yard where pups can safely play and enjoy their stay. I treat every dog in my care with the same attention, structure, and affection I give my own — ensuring they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away.

Fernando was a wonderful sitter for my fur baby. He sent pics daily, and my Benji always had a smile on his face around his new pals (other dogs). I’m glad I selected Fernando to watch my baby and wouldn’t hesitate to use him again! I highly recommend his services. He made the entire process extremely easy and efficient. I never had to stress or worry throughout my dog’s entire stay with him, which was a total of four days. :)

Fernando was amazing! He updated me daily on how Peluche was doing and additionally sent me multiple pictures throughout the days with a 4 night stay!

We are very happy with Fernando taking care of our Max. He constantly updates us with Max pictures and that made us feel better. We recommend his service and we will use his service again. Thank you very much Fernando!

I had a wonderful experience with Fernando this weekend. He was so kind, communicative, and easy to book with from start to finish. Throughout the stay he sent lots of photos, which gave me total peace of mind. My dog came home happy and completely exhausted from all the great playtime. I would absolutely book with him again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and caring to watch their pet!

Safety, trust & environment

This is a very safe place, my dogs are very friendly and sociable, they will definitely enjoy having a visitor or visitors to play with while their parents are away for the day or for an extended period of time.

Pets

A typical day

Your dogs will have a big, fenced-in yard to play around and run all they want. We have a combination of grass, and a newly added gravel pad in our backyard.

0 to 15 lbs
16 to 40 lbs
Spayed and neutered dogs only

Fernando can host up to 10 pets per night
All I care about is that your fur babies are friendly, and good being around other dogs. I do prefer dogs that are house-trained/potty trained just like our dogs are trained.
