Pet care experience

2 dogs max = happy dogs 🐶🐾🐕

I do boarding, drop-ins (dogs and cats), and walking. For boarding we are limiting 2 dogs (plus our one golden retriever) at a time so they can be treated like family and not get so overwhelmed. No aggressive dogs for boarding please. They will hang out with us during the day and sleep with us at night. We go outside every 1-2 hrs during the day. You’ll get updates with pics two times a day but you are always welcome to text me if you want any additional check ins. I truly love being a pet sitter. It brings me so much joy. I have experience with puppies to senior and special needs dogs as well as taking care of cats. I’m responsible and dependable. And I loooooove animals. I’m one of those that can’t watch videos where animals get hurt or it upsets me the whole day.

Karen was great! Super communicative and quick with her responses when trying to book! Loved getting Sages little report cards and I felt like she was well taken care of in Karen’s care!

Our dog Sundae had such a great stay. Karen and her husband took excellent care of her and were very communicative throughout the whole weekend. They were both flexible with pickup/drop off times and had no problem administering medicine that our dog needed. We felt so at ease leaving our girl with them and appreciated all of the updates and pictures we received. I can tell these two treated our girl just like their own! We highly recommend and will definitely use them again.

Karen and her husband Kevin were amazing! I usually get anxious about having to leave my dog Summer anywhere, but they calmed all my anxieties. They made Summer feel right at home and gave her individual attention. She can go on food strikes sometimes and they kept me updated on when she ate, as well as sending regular photos and videos of her playing, walking and relaxing. I would highly recommend them and would definitely have them watch Summer again in the future!

Schedule

If I’m showing up in your search then either my husband or myself will be home and off work that entire time. Your pet will be our priority. Most days we board one of us is home the entire day, but at most we would only leave for about an hour. And again, that’s rare.
