Safety, trust & environment

As a dedicated dog lover, I understand the importance of trust and open communication. Rest assured, your four-legged friend will be treated with the utmost love and respect, receiving the attention, exercise, and training they deserve during their stay with us. I have three personal dogs, however for the safety of our visitors introductions will not be made unless it is a longer term stay and we are able to have the proper amount of time to develop neutral acquaintances. Dogs are rotated for training/play sessions and free time for optimal levels of supervision and one on one time.

Pet care experience

I have 10+ years of caring for large and small animals both personally and professionally.

Each dog is an individual and we work to be sure those individual needs are met for your pet to thrive during their time away from home.

It goes without saying that Lora is awesome. I trust her with my Charlie more than I trust my family and Charlie loves her and her family. Don’t hesitate to book with her.
