Pet care experience

Retired person with fenced yard

I am a retired woman that has a loving playful golden doodle. I would be happy to host your dog that is housebroken and friendly with other dogs. I own a nice home in Breezy Point and have a fenced backyard for playtime and potty breaks. I will make your dog part of the family during his/her stay. Your dog will get a lot of attention as I am only accepting one dog at a time unless 2 dogs from same family. I only do this on part time basis. My dog Boomer loves to play but also respects the smaller breeds that don’t. I provide a loving caring atmosphere for your fur baby. If you are looking for a personalized experience in a home setting, i would be that person. I never wanted to leave my dog at a kennel while gone. Rover.com is a fantastic solution.

Winnie stayed with Kay for a second visit and had so much fun! She loves playing with Boomer and Kay takes very good care of her! I highly recommend Kay to care for your dog!

Kay was great! She kept her dog separate when we arrived so the dogs could settle in, sent us a pic during the day and was flexible on pickup time change. A+++!

What a great host. We received lots of updates and photos. Our dogs had a great time! Will definitely be bringing them back anytime we need some help.

Kay is truly exceptional and wonderful, and she clearly has a great affection for dogs. It's certainly preferable to avoid kennels where pets might experience distress. Kay offers a limited number of appointments on a part-time basis, providing an ideal home environment with a secure, fenced backyard. She is indeed a fantastic choice. Thank you once again.
