Pet care experience

Where every dog's on a Staycation!

Whether it’s a high-energy puppy who loves to play fetch or a senior dog who prefers cozy naps and gentle walks, my husband Jake and I tailor our care to fit each dog’s unique needs. We’ve handled everything from feeding routines and medications to cuddle sessions and zoomie breaks — and we love every minute of it! Your dog isn’t just a guest — they’re treated like family.

Nicole was amazing and our boys loved her. She was attentive and allowed time for both dogs to get pets separately.

Schedule

We're able to provide a personalized experience based on the age and personality of each dog, whether it’s a quiet day at home or an adventure-filled outing. Rest assured, your dog is always our top priority! I do dog walking and drop ins as well. This requires me to be outside the home for short periods. Please prepare accordingly if your pet requires crating or anxiety support during my appointment times. Potty break and treats are provided before I leave and after. If I feel the dogs personalities will get along together nicely, I will bring them with me. We take dogs out every 2 hours during the hours of 7am-9pm, with potty breaks starting the moment you leave after drop off and during the night if we get up. Treats after potty breaks to reinforce good habits.

Safety, trust & environment

Pet first aid kits are in home and with us on adventures. Medicines like dog calming support and digestive help for dogs with diarrhea are provided if needed. I have equipment for administering liquid medication as well. My husband Jake is a firefighter paramedic and is able to administer injectable medication. Your dog is in caring hands!

A typical day

Your dogs will get frequent potty breaks, playtime, cuddles, treats, and occasional trips to the dog park, lake, or walks/hikes depending on the weather. The routine changes based on the dog, but it’s all about keeping them active, happy, and well cared for during their stay. **PLEASE READ: On occasion dogs require extra care to maintain hygiene and safety. For those that roll in poop, diarrhea that requires more than baby wipes, those that pee or poop inside the home and on belongings, and dogs that destroy belongings or furniture - grooming, cleaning, and repairs will be added to the stay or negotiated through Rover support depending on the damage. Documentation and photographs will be provided to you in our visit conversation. Cleaning will be $5/inside pee or poo, $15/inside diarrhea.**
