Fur Angels First Here!

I have been around dogs for three decades. Some of the professional trainings I have experienced includes basic, advanced, therapy and scent work training. I am very comfortable and respectful when it comes to handling dogs. Your dog is important to you. I get it. I will treat your best friend the way that I would want my dog to be treated. (I have been told that my dog gets better treatment than my daughter). 😊 I have a fenced backyard for your dog to run around in with my 10 pound male Havanese. He is 14 years old and is exceptionally friendly and playful. He would love the company! References are available upon request. I'm looking forward to meeting your special fur angel!

Doggy Day Care • May 13, 2026

We had a great experience with Kalleen watching our girls for daycare! She was very kind and communicative, and we really appreciated the photo updates throughout the day. Molly and Bella can both be a little anxious/skittish in new environments, so it meant a lot to see them looking calm and comfortable while they were there. Bella even had an accident shortly after arrival, and while we were really embarrassed, Kalleen was very understanding about it, which we appreciated. We especially liked that she only accepts a small number of dogs at a time, since we think the quieter senior-dog environment helped our girls feel at ease during their stay. The location was also super convenient for us. We would definitely book with her again!

We had our Tobi stay with Kalleen for over two weeks she did an excellent job watching over him. Our dog was very nervous in the beginning as he has separation anxiety, but Kalleen was able to let him get comfortable with time. She kept us updated during our trip, and we were assured Tobi was safe in her hands. We would definitely book with her again!

She is amazing. Cody was not well, she took a very good care of him. Thanks a lot Kalleen.

Kalleen is great! Very in tune with dogs and very caring. Her home is lovely and she has a beautiful big yard for the dogs to sniff and play. She sends videos, pictures and stays in touch so you can see how your pup is doing. Very reliable and excellent communication.

Kalleen was wonderful with our pup, Ella! Kalleen suggested a meet & greet in advance. We did this via Zoom, and this worked perfectly as we were in CA & would be traveling to WA for vacation. The check-in was just right to ensure a match! Throughout Ella's stay, Kalleen sent pics & video- this really helped me to know that Ella had settled in, was having fun doing zoomies around Kalleen's big back yard, was going on walks among the woods, and was playing & getting along well with Kalleen's pup, Romeo! Ella had some allergy issues that needed tending to during her stay as well. Thanks to Kalleen's attention, this was all cleared up by the time that we picked her up 8-9 days later. I truly appreciated the home away from home that Kalleen provided for Ella, and her flexibility in working out pick up as we rolled on through WA on the way home. Kalleen is a true, hard to find, Rover gem that we would not hesitate to work with again! Thank you, Kalleen!

Kalleen has a big back yard, fully fenced for Bert to run around. A real nice dog lives there for my dog to play with and you can tell he is loved and well cared for. Kalleen listens and is very attentive with the dogs. She even kept in touch and sent videos of the dogs playing a few times. I left feeling comfortable but I'm not sure Bert wanted to go home when I came back to pick him up. I know he had fun, was well taken care of and we will be back for sure.
