Katherine was absolutely amazing! This was my first time leaving Buoy with her and the instant I met her I felt comfortable and secure in leaving Buoy with her. Buoy had a best friend to match his energy all weekend too! She kept me in the loop with updates and photos and was diligent about following his routine and giving him lots of exercise and playtime!

Katherine was wonderful with my 10-year-old Hannah who has never stayed overnight outside the family. A son as I met them I felt like she and Zelda would be a great fit. I never worried, and each day she sent a couple quick updates or pictures of Hannah and Zelda walking, playing or hanging out with each other. I picked Hannah up after a long day of travel she was super happy to see me, but then when Katherine went in the house, Hannah sat own the driveway and didn’t want to leave, lol. That says a lot about how much she enjoyed her time there.

Katherine was awesome! She not only gave me frequent updates including pictures on how River was doing, but also took her on multiple walks! River looked very happy and that she was having a great time 😊

Fabulous!!! We are so thrilled to have found a wonderful home away from home for our "good girl" to stay! Katherine is warm and welcoming, and made us feel reassured that our dog was in good hands. She sent photos and updates of the visit as it happened. We are thankful!!

Katherine took great care of our Mochi while we were away and her dog Zelda was the perfect companion for our dog! We got lots of photos and updates while we were gone. Thanks again :)

Safety, trust & environment

I have a fenced in grass back yard with a pool, as well as an unfenced grass front yard area. I have a dog of my own, a 2.5 yr old cattle dog/lab mix named Zelda who is extremely friendly, intelligent, and high energy. Although she does have the ability to be chill as well! At our home, we typically enjoy some exercise in the morning such as a walk in the woods, followed by mid-morning nap time, then later in the afternoon, play time with jolly balls or tennis balls, or swimming in our fenced in backyard pool area/ playing in the hose if your pup so desires. Evening usually consist of another walk along with treats and relaxing on the couch. I also have a large crate that can be set up as needed.

Pets

Depending on your pooch's preference, we can go for walks together, check out new smells around the yard, play fetch, swim, or just relax on the couch.
