Kaitlin was wonderful! Very communicative and quick responding. I can tell Rocco had a great time and I will for sure be using her from here on out!

Kaitlin was awesome. My dogs are happy and rested and it's apparent through pictures and communication that they were well cared for in my absence. Would recommend and use again.

Izzy had a blast with Kaitlin this past weekend. She sent us lots of pictures and updates throughout her stay. Looking forward to her next stay.

Kaitlin is so great with dogs. I think mine would prefer to live there and have me come visit. Thanks Kaitlin!

Kaitlin has been an absolute joy to work with concerning my doggo’s care. She is a great communicator and obviously a true dog lover. Has been so fun getting all the pics/videos and updates of Mai Tai with her friends and all snuggly in bed after a day of play. I trust and would recommend her to anyone needing her services.

Schedule

My home is calm, clean, and fully fenced, and because I work primarily from home with my boarding business, dogs receive plenty of supervision and are rarely left alone for extended periods. Whether your dog enjoys walks, playing in the yard, fetch, or simply relaxing on the couch, I’ll do my best to help them feel safe, comfortable, and at home.

Safety, trust & environment

I care for a limited number of dogs so every guest receives individualized attention and care. I’ve cared for dogs of many breeds, sizes, ages, and personalities-from energetic young retrievers and herding breeds to gentle senior dogs-and I tailor each stay to the dog’s unique routine and needs. Safety is always my priority. I introduce dogs thoughtfully, carefully supervise interactions, and create a calm environment where every guest can settle in at their own pace. As a certified dog trainer, I use positive reinforcement techniques and apply my knowledge of canine behavior and body language to create a safe, structured, and enjoyable experience for every dog in my care.

Pets

A typical day

Every dog has different needs, so I tailor each day to their personality and routine. We enjoy walks, supervised playtime, fetch, potty breaks, exploring the backyard, enrichment, and plenty of time to relax indoors. Every guest receives lots of attention, exercise, affection, and a comfortable, low-stress environment. My goal is for every dog to feel safe, happy, and right at home while they’re with me.

Before a stay, I like to learn about your pet’s routine, temperament, energy level, feeding schedule, medications, training, and how they interact with people and other dogs. The more I know ahead of time, the better I can provide a safe, comfortable, and enjoyable experience for your pet.
