Kathryn and her family did a wonderful job hosting our dog Duke for two weeks. She was flexible, kept us informed of how things were going in a timely manner, and happen to live within walking distance of our house. Highly recommended!

Our ageing dog was in amazing care with plenty of time to socialize and attention to specific care instructions. Everything went perfect. Thank you Kathryn and all of your amazing helpers. 💛👏👏

Information Kathryn B. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your dog has any specific fears or sensitivities, even small ones that might not seem like a big deal. Understanding what might scare them helps us create a safe and comfortable environment tailored to their needs.

A typical day

Daily Routine: Most of the day will include supervised outdoor playtime in our large, fully fenced yard. We spend much of our time outdoors, creating the perfect environment for pups to have fun, explore, and enjoy our assortment of ropes, tug toys, and tennis balls. During warmer weather, with your permission, we also set up puppy/dog pools and a splash pad for them to cool off and have extra fun. We accommodate dogs with different energy levels by rotating playtimes. High-energy pups can run and play to their hearts’ content, while those who prefer a quieter experience can enjoy exploring the yard or sniffing around in a calmer setting. This approach ensures every dog has a safe and enjoyable experience without feeling overwhelmed. Sleeping Arrangements: Our goal is to keep your pup as comfortable and close to their home routine as possible while ensuring a safe environment. If your dog is uncrated at home you can choose family style, where they will sleep with our pack or we can separate them with baby gates as needed. For crate-trained pups, we set up a crate in the kitchen for a comfortable environment! Time Spent with Your Dog: We’ll be home most of the time, giving your pup plenty of attention and care. On rare occasions, we may step out for an hour or two, but the majority of our time is spent ensuring your dog feels safe, loved, and entertained.
