Highlights
Pet care experience
Calm, Cage-Free Home Boarding
I offer thoughtful, in-home pet care designed for comfort, safety, and peace of mind—especially during holidays and extended stays. I welcome no more than 4 dogs at a time, ensuring each pet receives individualized attention in a calm, structured environment. Pets are never left alone, and I carefully separate them by size and temperament. Cats enjoy their own private, quiet space, completely separate from dogs. I have experience caring for rescue dogs and cats, senior pets, and pets who may need extra patience and reassurance while their families are away. During holidays and long stays, I focus on keeping routines consistent so pets feel secure and at home. Neighborhood walks and medication administration are included at no additional charge, and I provide plenty of love, supervision, and one-on-one time. For safety and handling considerations, a $25 additional fee applies to dogs over 100 lbs. Pet care is a family-supported service, and I work closely with my daughter Alexny, allowing for constant supervision, attentive care, and a warm, home-like environment where your pet is treated like family—even while you’re away.

Ratings and reviews
SIMPLY THE BEST. I was very apprehensive about leaving my dog while traveling for business. Since I work from home, we spend almost all of our time together, and I rarely have to leave her for extended periods. After moving back to New Jersey, my work travel increased significantly, which meant I had to find someone I could truly trust to care for her while I was away. I visited several boarding facilities and explored numerous options, but I just could not bring myself to leave her locked in a cage overnight. As a dog owner, I wanted more than basic care—I wanted her to be safe, comfortable, loved, and treated like part of a family. From the moment I met Lenny and her daughter, I knew they were different. They immediately put both me and my dog at ease. During my trip, they took exceptional care of her and treated her as if she were their own. One of the things I appreciated most was the constant communication. Lenny sent plenty of pictures and updates of her relaxing at home, enjoying walks, and having fun throughout the day. Seeing how happy and comfortable she was gave me tremendous peace of mind and allowed me to focus on my work without worrying about her well-being. When I picked her up, it was obvious she had been well cared for. She was happy, relaxed, and clearly had a wonderful experience. It is not easy to find someone who provides this level of personal attention, kindness, and genuine love for animals. If you're looking for a one-of-a-kind sitter or doggy daycare, I would not hesitate to recommend Lenny and her daughter. Their professionalism, communication, and dedication are unmatched. They have completely changed the way I feel about leaving my dog while traveling, and I am incredibly grateful to have found them. They are, without question, the very best I have found, and I will continue to trust them with my dog whenever I need care in the future.
Fiona had an amazing time with Lenny and her family.. I would highly recommended using her for all future boarding needs..
Thank you for the awesome care!
Lenny and her daughter were so easy to work with! We were even able to do a meet and greet for 15 mins the day before we dropped Livvy off. You can see they are loving to all animals in the home including ours! Can’t thank you enough!
She was amazing! Wolfie was so happy
Lenny was super communicative through out my pet stay. Also very accommodating extending the schedule. I would definitely recommend Lenny without a blink! Thanks again.

Schedule
Pet care is part of my daily routine, not something I fit in between other commitments. Because I care for pets from my home, I am able to provide consistent supervision, regular walks, timely meals, and plenty of one-on-one attention throughout the day. I plan my schedule around the pets in my care and follow their individual routines closely. With the support of my daughter Alexny, pets are never left alone, and care remains steady and attentive during weekdays, weekends, and holidays. This allows me to offer a calm, structured, and reliable environment where pets feel safe and cared for at all times.
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
Your pet’s safety, comfort, and emotional well-being are always my top priorities. I provide care in a calm, clean, and structured home environment, and pets are never left alone. I limit the number of pets I care for so each one receives close supervision and individualized attention. For outdoor time, I offer a large enclosed deck and a spacious backyard where one side is fenced and the other is secured with a portable fence to ensure dogs are safely protected at all times. Outdoor play is always closely supervised. I can also crate your dog if needed, always following your preferences. Pets are thoughtfully separated by size and temperament, and cats have their own quiet, dedicated space, completely separate from dogs. I follow each pet’s routine closely, including meals, walks, medications, and rest, to help them feel secure and at ease. I have experience with rescue pets, senior pets, and pets who need extra patience and reassurance, and I use gentle, positive handling at all times. My goal is to create a safe, loving, and stress-free environment where pets feel at home and pet parents have complete peace of mind.
A typical day
A typical day is calm, structured, and full of love. Mornings start with potty breaks, fresh water, breakfast, and gentle check-ins so each pet feels comfortable and relaxed. After breakfast, we enjoy neighborhood walks, supervised outdoor playtime on the enclosed deck or outdoor dog enclosure, and quiet time to rest. Throughout the day, pets receive one-on-one attention, affection, and mental stimulation tailored to their energy level and personality. Senior pets and shy pets enjoy a slower pace, while more active dogs get additional walks and playtime. Cats enjoy a peaceful routine with feeding, litter box care, playtime, and cozy rest in their own quiet space. In the afternoon and evening, pets enjoy more supervised outdoor time, enrichment activities, cuddles, and dinner followed by a calm wind-down routine. Medications are given as needed, and pets are never left alone. My goal each day is to keep pets happy, comfortable, and feeling at home while you’re away.
