Pet care experience
Hello and thank you for considering us to care for your much loved pet(s). Maintaining a safe, relaxing, and stress-free environment for all pet(s) is our first priority. We are a working family with a common goal. My husband, Ashley is a private dog trainer. Our resident dogs, Aya, Ru, & Grahm are great training assistants in our Private Dog Training programs and are the perfect activity coordinators. Each giving the right amount of play, chase, tug-o-war, keep-away, hillside safaris, relaxing, and sleeping in the sun. As for me, I am my dog’s caretaker, a lap to sit on, to give hugs and licks too, a taxi for car rides, feeder, walker, sitter, groomer, and drool wiper. And in return, the unconditional love every dog gives, is my reward. * BOARDING We believe in keeping our dogs socialize and thus the reason in opening our home for our guest pup(s) to stay. We love and welcome all dog breeds. Please read below before making a reservation. Maintaining a safe, relaxing, and stress-free environment for all of our guest pups is our first priority. Reservations will only be accepted after a meet & greet, vaccination records are verified, and a minimum of 2 nights. * MEET AND GREET Please allow advance notice for a meet & greet. Walk-ins are not available while guest pup(s) are in our care. A tour of the house is by next available appointment and copies of current vaccinations are available prior to the meeting. * HOUSE RULES We take care of your dog as if it is our own. To maintain a comfortable and relaxing doggy vacation home, there are only a few requirements for all of our furry guests: • Must be current on all vaccines • No aggressive dogs or heavy barkers • Must be free of fleas, ticks, and mud • Must have good manners • Must be house-trained
Reviews
Hobie always has a great time with Mary and her furry kids. They are the best!
Mary is AMAZING and her fur family, while large, are lovable and gentle with our older dog and a bit timid young one. Our dogs LOVE to visit!
Hobie had a wonderful stay with Mary and her dogs. We received pictures and updates every day. We felt very good about leaving our puppy in such a great home, with loving people and dogs. Hopefully Hobie will visit again soon. He had a blast and was taken great care of, while we were gone. Thanks
Our original sitter cancelled on us last minute, but Mary was able to step up and watch our pup, Molly, within 12 hrs. of contacting her. Mary took great care of her and was so easy to get in touch with if we needed to. Molly loved playing with Mary's other dogs and was sad to leave. I would definitely recommend Mary to anyone looking for a reliable dog sitter!
