To help us create the safest and most comfortable stay possible, we love learning about your dog’s personality, habits, and preferences ahead of time. Tell us about their daily routine, feeding schedule, sleep setup, and whether they’re crate-trained or free roam at home. It’s also helpful to know how they do with other dogs, whether they’re fully house-trained, if they’re allowed on furniture, and if they have any guarding behaviors, anxieties, or known triggers. Please share any allergies, medications, mobility concerns, or special care instructions as well. The more we understand about what makes your pup feel secure and happy, the better we can make their stay feel familiar, smooth, and stress-free. We schedule a meet-and-greet prior to all first stays to ensure a comfortable fit for everyone and help your pup feel confident from the very beginning. Because we host a limited number of dogs at a time to maintain a peaceful environment, availability can fill quickly — especially around holidays and peak travel dates.

Our days are calm and structured. Mornings begin with a potty break, breakfast, and fresh air in the yard or a neighborhood walk. During the workday, the house is naturally quieter, and most dogs settle in for naps and relaxed downtime with regular potty breaks. This environment works especially well for pups who are comfortable resting during the day. In the late afternoon and evening, we transition into dinner, a walk or yard time and light play or cuddle time. On weekends, and with your permission, we may include a relaxed leashed beach stroll for dogs who enjoy a little adventure. It’s a balanced stay with a healthy mix of rest, routine, and attentive care.
