Highlights
Pet care experience
Your dog vacations on our 2+ acres!
We've always had dogs of our own, we've watched dogs of our friends and neighbors, We've fostered puppies and dogs from two different shelters, but not till we lost our Sam did we realize just how much we miss having a dog. Recently retired, we plan to travel a bit so having dogs here when we are home looks to be the best plan to get our dog fix.

Ratings and reviews
I feel so lucky to have found Patrick and Monica! They treated our dog like their own for the weekend she was there and it was so nice not to have to worry about her. They sent lots of cute pictures and really gave her lots of love and attention. Thank you ☺️

My dog is my child. She’s a bit older and very used to a calm and routine environment so I was a bit nervous having to leave her for a few days. Thankfully, a friend recommended Monica and Pat. When we met, I was impressed when Monica wanted details about Ginger’s routine and even asked for her routine in writing once I committed to hiring her. Monica sent me pictures daily and Ginger made a new friend. Very happy I found them.
Hello! I have known Monica for 20 plus years! She is a wonderful person who cares for all Animals. My dog Maggie was alwYs so excited to go to her „ Retreat“ . There is no one who i would trust more with my animals. She is wonderful ❣️
Monica as watched my dogs several times! She is so good with them! Loving, gentle and kind! Loves walks, giving cookies and lots of love!!
Monica and Pat have cared for several of our furry children throughout the years and we highly recommend. They are caring, dependable, and truly love animals. It gave us such peace of mind while we were away. Aside from having their own fur babies in the past, they have also volunteered their home as foster dog parents to different organizations. Their home environment is very stable and loving. All our pets were always happy to visit Monica and Pat and we always returned to a happy, well-cared-for pups. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and kind to care for their pet.
