Safe and loving care for your pets!

Pet care experience

We are Zachary and Krista - Passionate animal lovers. We are experienced foster dog parents (with Little Paws Dachshund Rescue) with two foster fail doxies. We provide premium care for both your pups and kitties. With our hearts devoted to our canine companions, and as proud parents of two rescue dachshunds, your beloved dog is guaranteed an exceptional stay. As experienced foster parents for small-medium dogs over the past 5 years, we bring a wealth of knowledge and expertise in caring for precious pooches. For boarding clients, our home is thoughtfully designed to offer the ultimate small dog-friendly environment, ensuring their comfort and safety. The stairs are blocked with gates as to not worry about, and we even have ramps to help our furry friends hop on and off the couches with ease. Additionally, our secured, fenced-in backyard and the serene surroundings of our quiet neighborhood provide ample opportunities for walks and adventures. For drop-in visits and dog-walking clients, we make sure to be a trusted companion for your dog or cat during the visit and will feed, snuggle, play, administer medications and/or walk as you instruct. Krista is the main point of contact! She does a majority of the home drop-in visits and dog walking unless she is unable to make the date/time and it’ll be communicated to you that Zach would be caring for you pets! If you have a preference (some dogs are better with men vs women or vice versa!), just let us know! We have experience giving injections (B12 and insulin), experience with anxious and reactive dogs, as well as caring for special needs pups (recovering from surgeries, disabilities, IVDD, bladder expression).

This was the first time we ever boarded our dog Reese with someone. We met with Krista and Zach in advance to make sure she would get along with their two small dogs. After meeting them, I knew I could trust them with Reese. They are very caring and attentive. So when we left Reese there for our weekend trip, we were able to relax knowing she was in good hands. It was nice to receive photos of my dog while she was with them. She looked like she settled in well. She came home a happy girl, and I would definitely recommend Krista and Zach.

Safety, trust & environment

*As of May 2024 we are no longer boarding* For boarding clients, rest easy knowing that your furry friend will experience the utmost safety and care in my pet-friendly haven. With a well-maintained, securely fenced yard equipped with cameras, your pup's security is my top priority. Whenever they step outside, we'll be right there alongside them, providing constant supervision and companionship. For dogs who prefer leisurely strolls, our peaceful neighborhood offers lots of sniffs. Please ensure to provide a fitted harness or collar. Your pup will have the freedom to roam and explore our home unless you prefer them to be separated from my dogs. We would never leave them unattended together for any reason. If we need to step outside, your pup will be securely and comfortably situated either in a crate, if that's their preference, or in a separate room, guaranteeing their well-being and tranquility. You’ll get daily updates with pictures and videos. For dog-walk or drop-in visit clients we will follow your instructions for care and will ensure to create a nurturing environment where they'll thrive in their own element. You’ll get lots of photos and a summary of the visit upon conclusion of the visit.

Information Krista & Zachary H. would like to know about your pet

Relevant Medical History: Any health conditions, allergies, medications, or dietary restrictions. Vaccination Status (boarding clients only): Given that I have two beloved dogs of my own, it becomes even more critical to be aware of a dog's vaccination status, benefiting not only their personal protection but also ensuring the safety of other dogs they might come into contact with (info only needed for boarding clients). Behavior and Temperament: Insight into a dog's behavior and temperament allows me to provide tailored care and ensure a safe environment. Information about their socialization skills, interaction with other dogs, and any specific behavioral triggers or challenges helps me understand and manage their needs. Exercise and Activity Requirements: Understanding their energy level, preferred exercise routines, and any limitations helps me plan appropriate activities and ensure the dog receives adequate physical and mental stimulation. Feeding Schedule and Dietary Preferences: Knowing a dog's regular feeding schedule is essential to prevent any digestive issues or allergies while they are staying with us. Training and Commands: Familiarity with the dog's training commands they respond to helps me maintain consistency and reinforce positive behaviors during their stay. Emergency Contacts: Having emergency contact information for you, as well as the contact details for their primary veterinarian, in case of any unforeseen emergencies or medical situations that may arise.

A typical day

We understand the importance of maintaining their routine, so will follow your provided schedule to ensure a seamless transition. Multiple outings in the yard and plenty of play time of fetch or their fun activity of choice! They can cuddle on the couch or in a dog bed while we work in my home office for the day. We’ll also take a leisurely stroll around the neighborhood in the evening to get our steps in!
