Caring ‘at home’ environment.
Pet care experience
Hi, I have taken care of dogs of all sizes and breeds from age 15. We have pet sat professionally and also for friends and families going on trips for short or long term. I’m a stay at home mom and love pets!!! 😀 We can provide boarding for your dog(s) of most sizes. We have two medium size dogs that get along well with all different sizes, age and breeds. We are home all the time so your dog will be well cared for and get a lot of attention! We live on about 3 acres here in El Dorado Hills and have a lovely creek running through our property. We have a portion of our property fenced off for dogs to freely roam around and enjoy. This allows for plenty of outdoor play time. We have two dogs ourselves, Mochi male Golden retriever (4years) and Mila Female Golden Doodle (2years) both still very much pups and active. They are both fixed, medium size dogs with non aggressive demeanor. Both our dogs are obviously used to having other pups around and enjoy play dates and sleepovers. They are gentle and loving to our kids (12, 3 and 1 year old.) We are home full time so your dog will never be lonely. We are flexible as we know plans can change and appreciate open communication if there is a change of plans. We accept dogs of all size, breed and ages. Your dog will enjoy playing, running, whether it be fetch or water play or wrestling around with the other dogs. They have a run of the downstairs as it is hardwood and accidents would be easier to clean up. We have kiddie/dog gates up in carpeted areas. And a separate gated sleep area/room. If you have any special requests, we’d love to hear them and always do our best to accommodate. I am a retired stay at home home full time mom to care and have fun with your pups of any age, size or breed. Our pups are inside dogs. They are let out for potty breaks, to run/play and everything else to enjoy themselves. They are supervised outside 100% of the time as well as inside the house. Our area is completely fenced in with lots of shades from the trees.
Reviews
Lisa was fantastic!! She was willing to bring Benny to us for our wedding photos and Benny came home tired after a weekend of playing.
Did a wonderful job kept me updated on my dogs and took care of them very well
I needed someone to look after my boxer Sammy. Lisa and Russ were very close by and picked up and dropped off for us. They were very nice, on time and very accommodating. Sammy came back wore out from playing with the other dogs. Thank you so much Lisa,Russ and family! :)
Extremely sorry you’re moving soon! Russ is kind and sweet with All the dogs!

We have a completely fenced in yard that’s about a quarter acre or more for dogs to run and enjoy. Our own pups are friendly and enjoy running, wrestling and socializing with other dogs. We do not take in aggressive dogs as this is an “at home” environment.

Information Lisa N. would like to know about your pet
First whether or not your dog is or has been or is an aggressive dog. It’s important to know how your dog behaves around other dogs, people and especially children. We want to make sure to keep them separate if they are aggressive. Second, is your dog a roamer, dig or an escape artist. Our property is fenced but some may become curious and try to walk themselves around the great neighborhood. If they climb, chew, jump or dig then please let us know. We want to keep them safe and will keep an extra eye out for dogs with special skills. Do they need extra attention in any way. Special Diet or medication? For your information: Our normal drop off time is 9:00-5:00. If you need to drop off earlier or pick up later we will make accommodations as we are Flexible. However, if it will be significantly earlier or later, we may ask you to book an extra day and bring them the night before or pick up the next day.
