Safety, trust & environment

I have a large fenced yard that provides plenty of space to romp and frolic - or to just sit around and watch the neighborhood squirrel and bird shows. I keep a tidy home and pride myself on providing a safe, peaceful and comfortable environment. We often play classical music in the background to promote happy vibes, love to lounge outdoors on a sunny afternoon, and provide lots of of pets and pup massages throughout the day for our pampered pals.

Information Heather R. would like to know about your pet

Please be sure to note any allergies, unique personality traits, or triggers that your pup may have as well as any supplements and/or medications that will be required during their stay. We'll be able to chat and figure out if we're a perfect fit at our Meet and Greet!

A typical day

It all depends on what your pup prefers! We can play with toys, practice commands for treats, or just watch tv and share lots of cuddles. Maybe we'll get out for an adventure and a sniffabout at one of our favorite beautiful local parks. Each day varies depending on the group and the mood. But we make sure to have happy days around here, and your pup will receive tons of love and attentive care no matter what agenda unfolds!

Pet care experience

LUCKY PUPPY BOARDING CLUB We cater to small dogs up to 25lbs ONLY - thank you! Hi there! I'm Heather, a seasoned pet care provider and small dog specialist. I retired from a management career in 2017 to fulfill my dream of becoming a Stay at Home Dog Mom to a sweet mini dachshund, Piper. My precious little friend hopped over the rainbow bridge at the ripe age of 17-and-change after spending many years making memories with her newfound pack of rotating Rover pals. I'm not quite ready to welcome a new addition of my own, but I feel like I have dozens of my own part-time pups to love thanks to the amazing boarding club that Piper helped inspire and manage. She was our wise, sassy house-marm and I'm convinced that our Rover pack helped keep her young at heart and spry up until her very last day. I loved my little dog in a slightly obsessive way, so I totally get it! It's my mission to treat your pups with just as much love and special care as I would my own. Please take a few moments to read through my profile details and client reviews. If you feel like I'm the right fit for your pup's needs, send me a request with a quick note and we can schedule a Meet and Greet :) Details about our Boarding Club: - At least 48 hours notice & 2-night minimum per booking - Peaceful small group environment for small dogs only & loving, highly attentive care - Daily enrichment activities and adventure walks as weather and schedules permit - Daily pupdates: updates on your pup's stay & photos of them living their best lives!

Heather was absolutely amazing with our little senior pup who can be a bit of an odd ball and needs medications 😆 the daily pupdates were perfect and Koda Bear looked very happy in all the photos. Heather is very personable and kind and overall just has a very positive vibe. Her home is lovely and perfect for little pups. I will def request Heather again!
