Perfect Home Stay with Loving Care

We have owned and cared for a variety of dogs over the past 40 years and given them a loving home. We just lost our family dog, Sake, an Akita mix and my husband and I are now empty nesters and looking to spoil and care for your dog! In addition to being great animal lovers, we are very organized and pay great attention to details. This will allow us to take excellent care all the special needs your dog has. I work from home and have time to give your pet extra attention, care and good walks!
