Pet care experience

With over a decade of hands-on experience and more than 700 happy pups cared for, I specialize in personalized in-home boarding and daycare. What sets me apart is the focused care I provide to both senior dogs and young puppies, ensuring each dog gets the attention, patience, and gentle handling they need—whether they’re slowing down or just starting out. Your dog will stay in a safe, clean, and calm environment, with full access to a fenced yard, plenty of toys, and healthy treats. My home is kept to high standards of hygiene and comfort—because your dog deserves nothing less. Have a dog with special needs? Whether your pup is shy, blind, food aggressive, vocal, anxious, or just needs a little extra understanding—I’m well-versed in supporting dogs of all personalities and backgrounds. Want a sneak peek? I offer mini home tours Monday through Thursday so you can see where your dog will stay. Friday to Sunday, I dedicate my full attention to the dogs, so I won’t be available for tours during those times. At drop-off, I’ll meet you outside and calmly guide your dog in to keep stress low and the transition smooth. Communication is key. I’ll send you regular updates, photos, and notes so you always know how your pup is doing. Just a heads up: a day here is different from a day at home! Your dog may be extra thirsty or tired after all the play and stimulation—that’s totally normal.

Ray was literally heaven sent!! I had to find someone last min while going on a semi last minute trip and he took my fur baby in! I can literally tell he’s passionate and caring and treats your dogs as if it’s his own. He even sends pictures and videos 🥰 updates as well. Responds and communicates very quickly! I’m so glad we got him as our pet sitter and I definitely would book again with him! Peace of mind with who I leave my baby with is important and I definitely had that with Ray. Wish I could give him 10 stars, thank you so much again!!

Ray was very personable; He treated my baby Theo first time away with care and concern: He really eased some of my anxiety by sending me photos. I will definitely use him again.

Ray is a great sitter. He is the only one I would take my Sara to. I wouldn’t even leave her with a friend or family member. Because I know Sara enjoys being over with Ray.

Safety, trust & environment

Safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I provide a fenced yard with anti-dig protection, ensuring your dog can explore and play safely. Every dog is closely monitored, and I maintain clear, prompt communication. Cleanliness is just as important to me as care. I genuinely love dogs—and yes, I love cleaning too! Kennels and bedding are thoroughly sanitized after each stay, and the entire home is kept clean and orderly to provide a healthy, stress-free environment for everyone. My goal is simple: to create a positive, peaceful experience for you, your dog, and me. When dogs feel safe, clean, and cared for, that’s what I aim to deliver every day.

Information Ray E. would like to know about your pet

Rover profile is fully up to date before drop-off. This includes: • Accurate breed and weight information • Detailed care instructions (feeding, routines, quirks) • Any medications your dog needs, including dosage and timing • Behavior notes (e.g., if your dog is shy, reactive, or prefers space) • Preferences around play, cleanliness, or getting muddy—just let me know! The more I know ahead of time, the better I can tailor your dog’s stay to keep them happy and stress-free. Communication is key to a successful stay, so feel free to reach out with any questions or updates. I’m here to make sure your dog feels right at home.

A typical day

Dogs can enjoy hours of free play in the spacious, fully fenced backyard—perfect for zoomies, sunbathing, or just sniffing around. Once they’ve mastered the dog door, they’re free to come and go between indoors and outdoors at their own pace. Whether your dog loves to run, wrestle with a buddy, or curl up for a nap, they’ll find their rhythm here. There’s a shaded, covered porch where they can rest out of the sun or stay dry when it rains. Indoors, cozy spots for those who prefer snuggling or a quiet break. For older dogs or more reserved pups, I make sure they have a peaceful space to relax and recharge. Every dog gets plenty of love, supervision, and one-on-one attention throughout the day. It’s a balance of play, rest, and companionship—just like home, but with a bit more tail-wagging fun.

These prices are for one dog. A booking fee of 11% and taxes will apply.

Availability

My daily schedule is fully centered around the dogs in my care. I offer flexible drop-off and pick-up times to accommodate your routine. Each day is tailored to the specific needs, energy levels, and personalities of the dogs staying with me. Some dogs need extra rest, while others thrive with structured play and enrichment. No two days look exactly the same, because I adjust to give each dog the individual care and attention they deserve.
