Pet care experience

It's always fun at Gma's house.

What happens at Gma's house stays at Gma’s. Having fun is what is important. We love to play tug of war, chase, fetch, or just cuddle with your furry family. Our goal is to make Gma's house so much fun they look forward to their next visit and hardly miss Mom and Dad. Harley & DaKota love to have friends over to play and will quickly teach their furry friends what fun it is to play inside and in our big fence in yard outside. The dog door allows everyone to go in and out when they want to. We have lots of toys, mind puzzles, activity games, yummy antlers and bones, and other things to chew on. We have play areas so if one just wants to chill and watch out the window, they don’t get in the way of those that are rough housing and playing.

Doggy Day Care • Sep 28, 2026

Kathy sent us tons of pictures of Luna having fun playing, exploring, and napping. Luna had a great time while her mommy and daddy could enjoy the wedding without having to worry about her.

Kathy was amazing! Her attention to detail, making certain my old girl got her meds and handling all that goes with caring for my four legged fur-babies. I so appreciated all of her daily photos of what my kids were up to (aka sleeping on the sofa). Thank you Kathy!!!

Doggy Day Care • Sep 16, 2026

Amazing with my dog, Millie! I loved all of the photos and communication throughout the day as well as the rundown at pick up. Will definitely be using her for regular daycare days just to keep my dog socialized!

Doggy Day Care • Sep 14, 2026

Kathy was absolutely wonderful with my pug, Salvy! She was so kind and welcoming, and I felt completely comfortable leaving him with her. She sent me tons of pictures throughout the day, and Salvy looked so relaxed and right at home. We were in a bit of an unusual situation and only needed someone to watch him for a few hours while we were at the State Fair so my daughter could compete in the pedal pull. Kathy made the whole thing so easy and gave me one less thing to worry about on a really special day for us. Salvy clearly had a wonderful time, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. I would absolutely book with Kathy again.

Kathy is so inviting to us and our pup. Our puppy was 11 weeks old and she kept him on his routine for us. When we came to pick him up he was happy to see us but kept wanting to stay! She is a great communicator, sent MANY photos and videos. Kathy was such a blessing to us and our puppy, I cannot thank her enough.
