Pet care experience
I’ll be back soon, little paws! ❤️
🏡 Your dog will be treated like family in our home, with lots of love, cuddles, walks, and attention. 🐶 We have two Basset Hounds: Ozzie, a playful youngster, and Minnie, our laid-back senior. Our home is best suited for friendly, active dogs. Initial introductions may include some excited barking before everyone settles in, and I’m happy to arrange a meet-and-greet first. 💛 I’m home full-time, so your dog will receive plenty of supervision and care. 🐾 If I need to step out for a few hours, your dog can be safely crated, stay in a playpen, relax in a separate room, or have free roam of the house—whatever works best for their comfort and needs. ✨ A few things to know: • 🐕 I usually board other friendly dogs during holidays and summer, mostly welcoming my regular paw friends. • 🦴 Treats are provided unless you prefer otherwise. • 🏠 If needed, I may crate dogs briefly for safety or to prevent marking. • 🐾 Most dogs quickly feel at home, follow me around the house, and enjoy walks and playtime with their friends. • ⭐ Exclusive one-family boarding is available for $125 per night. • 📸 I’ll send photo updates every other day. ❤️ My husband and I truly enjoy caring for dogs, and we’d love to welcome your pup into our home. 💬 Feel free to reach out with any questions!

Ratings and reviews
Francesca took good care of our basset, Biscotti. Though there were several other dogs she was caring for at the same time, Biscotti preferred to follow Francesca around (probably because of the treats!) Francesca took her to the park and on walks and was a responsive communicator. We really appreciated her caring for our pup.
Francesca did a really nice job watching our dog and gave us regular updates while we were away. Our pup looked well taken care of when we picked her up. I would certainly hire Francesca again.
Francesca is wonderful. My 3-year-old goldendoodle (Sky) enjoyed her stay. She loved the company of other dogs and appreciated Francesca’s loving care.
Bianca had a fantastic time with Francesca and the other pups who were in good company. Francesca took good care of Bianca and sent updates with photos and videos. I would book with Francesca again without hesitation. I am so pleased to have found her and close by in the neighborhood.
Francesca was great with my dogs. They all seemed happy and well cared for.
Francesca gave my high-energy dog lots of exercise and attention! Muskrat came home tired and happy. I would hire her again!
