Safety, trust & environment
After leaving my job to stay home with my kids, I’ve loved spending intentional time with them and with our 2-year-old Goldendoodle, Dumpling. When your dog stays with us, we will make it a priority to care for these dogs and create special memories with them. Whether it’s playing fetch in our backyard, walking the wooded private trails, or socializing with neighborhood dogs, they will always be an integral part of our day. Dumpling truly thrives with another dog by his side. He’s playful, gentle, and full of love. Nothing fills his joy tank like a good play session with a buddy. Afterward, I can already picture them both curled up for a long, cozy nap near the windows. My goal is to make your beloved baby feel safe, loved, and special while they’re here. My daughter plays a big part in ensuring that your dogs gets the detailed care they need: from feeding routine, hygiene and grooming, playtime, and belly rubs. In our home, dogs are treated like family. We understand how hard it can be to leave your dog in someone else’s care. That’s why we take the time to get to know both you and your dog. We will only take 1 dog at a time to ensure focus and quality service. We will send daily updates to give you a peace of mind that your dog is happy and healthy here. It's almost like they're having their own vacation here in the beautiful Mill Creek! Share your pup’s unique care instructions, and we’ll follow them to a tee. We’re confident we have the time, energy, and heart to give your furry baby the care they deserve.

Information Joy S. would like to know about your pet
Please let us know if your dog has allergies, oral medication, or anything that the owner does not allow. We strongly prefer potty trained, hypoallergenic, friendly, and non-aggressive dogs to ensure that our environment remain peaceful, calm, stress-free, and enjoyable for everyone.
A typical day
During their stay, your pup will enjoy at least two long walks daily along our private trails. We love taking them out in the early morning, afternoon, and one last stroll in the evening to help ensure a restful night’s sleep. On weekends, they get to explore the backyard while our family enjoys BBQ time together. And of course, there’s always time for fetch and a fun game of tug-of-war! Inside our home, we’ve created a spacious area where dogs are free to roam, play, nap, and simply be themselves. Our quiet, cool mudroom serves as a cozy sleeping spot, with calming music playing to help them relax. We provide comfy pillows, blankets, plenty of toys, and all-natural treats. Between walks and naps, your pup will get plenty of belly rubs, ear scratches, and even some training sessions! The day before pickup, we offer a complimentary professional photoshoot in our studio. As a thank-you for trusting us, you’ll receive a gallery showcasing your pup’s most beautiful angles, expressions, and charm! A hotel stay plus a photoshoot for your dog? YES, PLEASE! :)

Reviews
Joy and her family took such fantastic care of our dog during our 3 week trip overseas. We were sent pictures and updates on how our dog was doing and we could clearly see how loved she was while in their home. We even worried she may not want to come home with us after we returned! Joy and her family are kind, trustworthy, animal lovers. We are so thankful we found her and will use her again if we ever need. We know our dog will be in excellent hands.
Amazing experience. Totally recommend!
Brownie had a great time staying at Joy’s home. She bonding well with others, and I got update with photos everyday. Definitely recommended. Would be my first choice next time when go travel.
Thank you for taking such great care of Asher!!
