Your Fur Baby's Home Away from Home

We are the epitome of an animal family and have had dogs and cats our whole lives! In addition to having our own fur baby's, we volunteer with a rescue at their events and foster and train puppies 1 week a month. Our children even want to be vets and have taken kids vet classes. The adults in the house work from home and provide plenty of walks and love all throughout the day. Our fur guests are always treated like family when they are here.

Doggy Day Care • Jun 05, 2026

Wonderful family! Daisy enjoyed staying with them. I was in a crunch trying to find a sitter and Lauren and Derek were there for us. They did a great job making my dog feel comfortable when she was initially nervous. I highly recommend!

Our sweet girl was in great care while we were away. She enjoyed the company of the other dogs (who are so friendly) and was so loved by Lauren, Derrick and their two kids. She had all of her needs met and of course loved her playtime at their house. We now know who to ask in the future when we need services again.

Lauren and Derek took great care of my Coko! They met us outside for dropoff and pickup. She had such an amazing time in their hands and playing with the other pups! 5/5 stars!

Lauren is the best dog sitter (and other pets too). She is incredibly reliable, caring, and genuinely loves animals. Every time she's looked after my pups (and by pups I mean large stinky dogs), I’ve had complete peace of mind knowing they were in great hands. She loves them like they were her own, and they love her right back! !

Lauren has been walking and caring for my dog for a few years. She is reliable and my dog loves her . My dog is a senior rescue who is dog adverse so I can’t board her when I am out of town and I rely on Lauren to walk her four times a day , feed her twice a day and crate her at night. Lauren has also given my dog medications . Lauren is an animal lover and in addition to her own dogs and cats also fosters dogs. I highly recommend Lauren to take care of your dogs! You will be totally pleased with the care Lauren will provide to your best friend .

Safety, trust & environment

We have a very pet friendly development and will take your pups on walks and playtime in the backyard. We offer mimicking your home care so if you crate train, we will crate train. If your fur baby sleeps in your bed, your fur baby can sleep in our bed. We have dog beds and toys throughout the house and our own dogs for your pup to play with throughout the day. Your dogs will always be treated like our own while they are here and get plenty of love and attention.
