I can't say enough about the excellent care that Kathryn and Denis gave to our dog Rolo while we were away. We are so grateful to them for all the updates they provided and the photos showing us that Rolo was happy and enjoying his holiday as well. Knowing our dog was in safe hands made our trip much more enjoyable. Thank you again. We will definitely be reaching out to you again.

Kathryn and Denis are top notch dog people. They and their family provided a cozy and welcoming home for our high energy pup. Our dog does not always settle in quickly but did so quickly with this beautiful family. She, the dog, even appeared to mind her manners. Thank you K & D.

Kathryn is one of the most loving and responsible people I know. She is an absolute lover of animals, and any animal in her care will receive the best.

We are so happy we found Kathryn! Any time we travel, we have been worried about where our Weim can stay. He can be a nervous boy and needs truly excessive amounts of attention and love. I hate to leave him behind, but it’s so clear that he loves Kathryn, and her house has become as comfortable as home for him. She provided updates throughout our trip so we knew our boy was enjoying his own “vacation” while we were away. He was so happy upon pickup that we knew he was in good hands the whole time. Kathryn has really relieved so much stress so I know we can plan any trips without worrying about how he will be taken care of.

Safety, trust & environment

We have a large home with a fenced in yard across from a park. We will walk, play, feed and care for your pup like our own. Our beloved Yorkie Penny passed away last year from old age. We have decided to pet sit since we remember how hard it was so find sitters when we would go on vacation. We also love having a fur baby around! We only take one pet at a time.
