Pet care experience
Safe, Loving Home Away From Home 🐾
I've been the guardian home for our Labradoodle, Harlem, for the past 5 years, and that’s where our passion for dog care began. I recently started offering boarding in our home after caring for pets of friends and neighbors. I work from home, and my teens help with supervised walks and play. Your dog will get two walks a day, plus backyard time and lots of attention in a calm, family environment. I board a maximum of two families at a time to ensure every dog gets proper care and space. Walks, play, feeding, and photo updates are all included, and I'm happy to follow your dog’s usual routine to keep things low-stress. I treat every dog like one of my own. I do require a meet-and-greet before booking to ensure your dog is a good fit with Harlem.
Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
This was a super last minute booking - so we're grateful Frankie was able to find a spot! Lina was very accommodating, we were even able to pick her up a bit sooner!
Lina was very patient and considerate of the needs of an active 9 month old puppy. Kona got to play with a number of other dogs which was an excellent learning experience. He returned home tired and happy !
Molly had a great time. Would definitely recommend
Lina was excellent, her two dogs got along instantly with Reese and she had a large indoor area for pups. Would definitely recommend
Lina was super accommodating to our late arrival and provided regular updates throughout our Georgia's stay. Will definitely book again in the future.
Lina is the only choice for my Daisy. Great care and loving atmosphere. Cannot recommend enough.

Schedule
I work from home full-time, so pet care is naturally built into our daily routine. Morning and evening walks, regular backyard breaks, feeding, and indoor play are all part of the day-to-day. With teens at home as well, your dog gets plenty of interaction and attention throughout the day.

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I provide a quiet, structured home environment with lots of consistency and supervision. Dogs are never left alone for long periods, and we make sure each guest feels secure and comfortable. I only board one to two families at a time, and dogs must get along with Harlem, our friendly Labradoodle. I do a meet-and-greet before any booking to make sure everyone is a good fit. I follow your dog’s feeding and care instructions closely, offer regular photo updates, and create a home-away-from-home feel that keeps stress levels low.
Pets
A typical day
A typical day includes two walks (morning and evening), regular backyard playtime, and lots of attention throughout the day. We also have a gated park nearby where they can run and play (weather and temperament permitting). Dogs hang out in the main areas of our home and are part of our daily routine — whether it’s relaxing nearby while we work or getting cuddles between activities. When no one is home for short periods, they have access to a large sunroom to relax in, or their crate if that’s what they’re used to and prefer. Feeding is done based on your schedule, and we offer potty breaks and water refills regularly. We also send photo updates so you can see how your dog is doing!
