Highlights
Pet care experience
Loving fun place away from home!
I have had dogs all my life, from puppies to seniors with special needs. Right now I have a senior bichon-poodle mix. I rescued her as a puppy in 2014. I have created a custom "doggie yard" to ensure all everyone can run and play in a secure and safe place every time we go outside. I have also had recent experience caring for a blind senior Yorkie. I learned how to prepare the inside of my home to accommodate his disability.

Ratings and reviews
Excellent care
Kathleen was great with my baby Bella. She took such great care of her, this was her first long stay away from home and she gets separation anxiety. Kathleen was very attentive and nurturing to make sure Bella was comfortable. She sent updates throughout the day and asked questions to help Bella’s stay be more comfortable. Lots of photos sent! Highly recommend!!
Kathleen took such good care of Brownee! Brownee came back home well fed and happy. She definitely got comfortable at Kathleen’s and I’m happy for it. Once again, Kathleen shared updates and pictures throughout the stay, and when I picked Brownee up, Kathleen gave a thorough overview of all happenings. I really appreciate it.
Thank you Kathleen for caring for Brownee during her boarding stay! We look forward to the next visit.
We did a repeat stay with Kathleen recently and Paisley had a wonderful time. She went nuts when she got there and was so excited. Clearly she enjoyed her previous stay. We got lots of pictures. She is great!
My girl Bella seemed very comfortable during her stay with Kathleen. Great communication and picture updates.

Schedule
I work from home on a flexible schedule. We take doggie breaks every 2 hours, or sooner if needed. This is a time to go outside, run and play with toys, feeding, or just sit with them and snuggle.

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
My doggy area outside has a "custom" super soft grassy area that is double fenced to keep pets secure, safe and always in sight when outside. Plenty of cozy pet beds are in each room, and pets are allowed on my sofa. My home has an Open design, so I am able to see what is happening at any given moment

A typical day
A typical day includes playing "fetch" with a variety of toys, both indoors and outside. Outside, we also have fun with chase games around the yard until we are all tired out. The more senior dogs love to lay in the soft grass and enjoy a sunbath! Then back inside for them to nap, lounge, snuggle, or get tummy rubs. This is the best time of the day for me to have individual time with each fur baby.
