Family ready to care for your pet

Holiday Note - For the upcoming Holidays I will not be accepting drop-offs or pick-ups on the actual Holiday Day. All drop-off and pick-ups will need to be the day before or the day after. PLEASE BE COURTEOUS AND BE WITHIN 15 MIN. OF YOUR AGREED UPON DROP-OFF AND PICK-UP TIMES. ~~ Dog must be FULLY potty trained and go without a potty break for 8 hours ~~ Weekday drop-off: 6:30 am - 7:30 am or after 4:00 pm, please confirm drop-off time when booking. Weekend drop-off: more flexible, will confirm drop-off time when booking. Pick-up time: By 9 pm, I will contact you a day before to confirm pick-up time. We are a family of 6 wanting to care and love on your family pet. I work during the week and I am gone from 8:15 am to 4 pm, Monday - Friday. We live in a cul-de-sac with very little traffic and a large backyard for your pet to run and play. We have a pet friendly area in our home for them to play, nap and relax. My family is a very active family and play outside almost every evening when it cools down some. Our rescue dog named Peyton is so friendly with cats and dogs and just wants to play all day. My husband and I have 4 children. 2 still live at home. We have a 31 year old, 26 year old, 18 year old and a 15 year old. All of my children have grown up with dogs, cats, rabbits and ferrets to name a few. They have always been and are very loving, caring and playful with their pets. We would love to care for your pet and love them as part of our family while you are away. Please be courteous and be timely with your drop-off and pick-up times. I understand that things pop-up and you get to running late. So just let me know if you are running behind. I try my best and sometimes rearrange events, even come home in-between sporting events to meet you at your specific time so please try to stay within 15 min. of your agreed upon time. Thank you.

I had to book last minute to have my pup boarded. Kathy did an amazing job caring for my pup for the 7 days I was gone. I appreciate the update and the photos. I am definitely booking with her again in the future.

My family enjoyed a vacation in peace knowing that our dogs, Rocket and Bear were well taken care of. Kathy sent us pictures and kept us informed of their stay. Our dogs were fed well and enjoyed their outdoor play. They were happy when I picked them up.

Kathy took amazing care of my dog Peppermint! Clearly was very happy, some how still clean even though it had been raining, and all around seemed like she had an amazing time. Will definitely book again in the future!
