Home away from Home

I've been taking care of animals since my very first dog at 7. I have a lot of experience with all breeds from teacup Yorkies, to the most muscular tank of a pit bull. I used to work / still occasionally help out at the dog house in providence where we board,daycare and train. Im very good with feeding, walks, hikes, play time, snuggles. From puppies to elderly pups. My husband and I recently lost our dog at Christmas. She was a month shy of celebrating her 16th birthday . No task is too much to handle with these love bugs. I treat each dog with their personality. Not every dog' like ourselves, are the same. I do my best to really understand each individuals needs and pair dogs that will work well together. All should be very comfortable with their stay. I do require a temperament/evaluation before their stay here to make sure all dogs and humans feel happy and 100% comfortable.

Kat is unbelievable. Truly an expert when it comes to dogs. Have an old dog and she did everything my pup needed. Plus loving and efficient. Would absolutely book her again!

Kat is the BEST with Sophie !! We feel so lucky to have found her - she is our trusted person for all of our out of town stays where we can’t bring our pup. Can’t recommend her enough

Schedule

My schedule is very open. This is my full time job. I do however, if interested in boarding and daycare, have walks a few times a week which will require me to leave for no more than a hr . If your dog is ok being alone for a short amount of time without anxiety then please don't hesitate to reach out!

Safety, trust & environment

I have a fenced in yard and live near many dog parks. I do have cats but they usually stay clear . I provide a place where both you and your pet feel most comfortable but I'm open and willing for a play date at my house

A typical day

Walks are a must here! I love to make sure dogs get as much energy out as possible. You will bring your baby home to take a nice long nap. With the warm weather hiking, and dog parks are a big part of the day.
