My Labrador, Dixie, is the reason I fell in love with boarding dogs. She is always happiest when she has a buddy around, and she helps create a relaxing, vacation‑like experience for visiting pups—very different from the stress some dogs feel in traditional boarding facilities. I’ve worked as a professional dog bather and a dog daycare/boarding specialist. To working on Rover for several years now. I got my start caring for neighbors’ cats and dogs as my very first job. It makes me so happy to provide in‑home pet care, and build a safe, comfortable environment here at home with a capacity of up to three dogs total, or one-on-one care if preferred. I’m experienced with higher‑drive dogs and can absolutely provide extra attention or structured activities upon request. I love playing outside with the pups and know how to properly exercise dogs. If your dog isn’t a fan of cats, that’s perfectly fine. I do have one cat who can be used for training if requested, but boarding dogs typically never see her. She has plenty of hiding spots and separate areas, and we prioritize keeping everyone comfortable. For dogs who have never seen a cat before, I’m happy to work on calm exposure through a window at first. If their reactions are appropriate, I may slowly introduce positive‑reinforcement training to help them be more relaxed around cats—though I will only allow true interactions if I’m completely confident in their safety. Training during boarding is available and can be tailored to your dog’s needs. Pricing varies depending on the scope and type of work. This can include reinforcing routines and household rules, building good manners, working on boundaries, supporting exercise and diet routines, and teaching tricks through hand signals, verbal cues, and treat‑based shaping. Extra activities like fetch and frisbee are also available. In addition, I previously worked as a professional dog bather and can provide luxury baths at the end of your dog’s stay. If you’d like your pup to come home clean, soft, and fresh, just let me know! Dixie, my friendly black Labrador, is a wonderful companion for medium to large dogs and shows no aggression around toys or food. I look forward to welcoming your pup and giving them a safe, fun, and comfortable home‑away‑from‑home experience.
