Country Dog Retreat

My husband and our family have recently retired from the Navy and moved back home to Texas! We have a large private yard where we live in Bulverde and would love to take care of your pooches! I’ve have been involved with animal care for over 16 years! I have volunteered at local shelters, worked as a Veterinary assistant, Vet tech, have experience large Dog Daycares, and boarding facilities. I also hold multiple dog training certifications and am always learning more!

Kelley was very sweet, attentive and kind to my dogs! She has great communication and went above and beyond to take care of my boys and deal with their little quirks while we were away. They truly enjoyed her visits and she took the time to get to know them which I very much appreciated. I was able to come home from a long trip to two happy dogs, a clean home, and will definitely book with her in the future. Thank you for being so kind & taking care of them!

Great from start to finish. Fast and frequent communication. The boys were treated like family and loved playing with Kelley’s pup.

Doggy Day Care • May 18, 2025

I couldn't be happier with the care Kelly provided for my dog! From the start, communication was easy and professional. Kelley truly went above and beyond to make sure my pup was happy, healthy, and well-loved while I was working long days. Mopsie came home calm, content, and clearly well cared for. It gave me such peace of mind knowing she was in such good hands. I especially appreciated the regular updates and adorable photos—those little touches made all the difference. I highly recommend Kelly to anyone looking for a trustworthy, kind, and attentive pet sitter. I will definitely be booking again.

We are so grateful for the amazing care Kelley provided for our cat while we were away! She checked in every single day, kept us updated, and truly went above and beyond even beyond what we asked. Her attention to detail, kindness, and extra touches made us feel so comfortable being away from home. We came back to a very happy cat and a home that had clearly been well cared for. We can’t thank her enough and would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for outstanding pet care!

Safety, trust & environment

We have a large fenced yard with a climate controlled "dog house" or shed. Inside the dog house they have soft music, their own kennels, and whatever food, water, and comfort items they need. They get plenty of outdoor play time, can lounge in the shade of trees, or play in the little kiddie pools we have set up. We want them to have fun running and playing, then be as comfortable as possible when it's time to rest.

Pets

A typical day

Depending on your preference, they can play with our dog "Bruce" (he is an extremely friendly black lab) who is always ready fun, or just play in the large yard with their own toys. There are deer, birds and other animals that wander through the property for them to bark at, and some water fun on a hot day if they choose that.
