Pet care experience

Ready to play and cuddle

We have always had at least one dog in the family for as long as I can remember! We have cared for dogs of all kinds, sizes, and ages. We love the most energetic pups but also enjoy the laid back, cuddly ones just as much. With 2 teen boys, and our own pup, Mercy, your pup will get lots of play time and attention. The boys love meeting new furry friends! Someone is almost always home so frequent trips outside are no problem. We have a yard to play in and plenty of walks to be had. Let our house be your pets resort while you are away!

I always feel my dog is in good hands when I leave him with Karen.

Karen and family took great care of our anxious pup! Provided consistent updates and fast responses. Was very understanding about her separation anxiety and took the time and effort to make sure she felt as comfortable as possible. Thank you for a great stay!

Words can not say how much we appreciate Karen and her FAMILY!! They took such good care of our puppy!! Updated daily with pictures and videos. We will definitely be a return customer. Not to mention the price is very reasonable, and could not thank her and her family enough. Lol pretty sure my dog didn't wanna come home she loved them!!!!

Always the best!! My dog seems so happy and comfortable when he’s with them that I can travel without worrying about him so much.

They are so sweet and took good care of my little girl. They sent pictures and were so nice. I will use them again.
