Pet care experience

Your dogs home away from home!

I provide low-volume, personalized boarding for dogs who deserve more than a kennel experience. I intentionally accept only a small number of dogs at a time so every pup receives plenty of attention, supervision, affection, and individualized care. I’ve cared for animals my entire life, including dogs, rabbits, guinea pigs, parakeets, and reptiles. As a dental student, attention to detail, communication, and responsibility are a huge part of who I am. One of my favorite parts of pet sitting is getting to know each dog’s unique personality. Whether your pup is energetic, shy, cuddly, food-motivated, or has a very specific routine, I take the time to learn what makes them comfortable and happy so they can truly enjoy their stay.

It was so nice to be able to leave my dog with someone who cared and kept me updated while I was gone. Being able to have someone to watch him over the holidays was amazing

Schedule

A typical day includes plenty of outdoor playtime in my large fenced backyard, lots of attention, couch naps, treats (with owner approval!), enrichment, and quality one-on-one time. Every dog is different, so I tailor the day to their personality and energy level. Some dogs want to spend hours running around the yard, while others are happiest curled up next to me while I study. Either way, they’ll be included in my daily routine and treated like part of the family. My goal is simple: I want your dog to be excited when they arrive and exhausted from fun when they go home!

Safety, trust & environment

Your dog’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I have a large fenced backyard for secure outdoor play and closely supervise all interactions. Before every stay, I take time to learn your dog’s routine, feeding schedule, sleeping preferences, medications, and any special needs so I can provide the smoothest transition possible. I also provide frequent photo updates and communication throughout the stay because I know how important peace of mind is when you’re away from your pet. My goal is for both you and your dog to feel completely comfortable and cared for.

A typical day

A typical day here is all about fun, comfort, and lots of attention! Dogs enjoy supervised playtime in my large fenced backyard, plenty of potty breaks, enrichment, treats (with owner approval), and lots of one-on-one interaction. I tailor each stay to your dog’s personality and routine. Some pups love running and playing outside, while others are happiest curled up next to me while I study. Whether your dog is energetic, goofy, cuddly, or a professional napper, they’ll be treated like part of the family. My goal is for your dog to have their own vacation while you’re enjoying yours!

Please tell me everything that makes your dog unique! I love getting to know each pup’s routine, personality, favorite activities, sleeping habits, feeding schedule, and any little quirks that help them feel comfortable. Does your dog sleep in bed? Need a bedtime treat? Have a favorite toy? The more I know, the better I can make their stay feel like home. Please also let me know about any medications, allergies, fears, special accommodations, or behavioral concerns ahead of time so I can provide the safest and most enjoyable experience possible. For the safety of all pets in my home, dogs must be up to date on vaccinations.
