Doggy Day Care • Mar 04, 2026

Ist time last minute daycare for Sammie and,Andie. Ryan was very thorough during an advance meet and,greet explaining how they operate and introducing Sammie and Andie to some of their dogs. Both pups did well there. Love that there is plenty of room for the dogs to get out and run off their high energy and that there are no kennels. Thank you.

Ryan was amazing at taking care of our two dogs and cat. He sent many pictures throughout the week and our animals loved their time with him.

Ryan was an amazing sitter who was willing to adjust original scheduled times. Cleaned up a potty mess to assure clean living environment. Will rehire!

Safety, trust & environment

I provide a comfortable home environment including a spacious (and fenced in) back yard, fully shaded with mature tree cover; I am grateful to be able to share this oasis with my boarders! Inside, I have plenty of beds, bowls, bones, and blankets to provide your dogs with a relaxing environment that they can enjoy themselves in. Outside, I have a large fenced in area for them to safely explore and get their exercise as I keep a watchful eye. I have extensive experience with dogs of different breeds, ages, energy levels, and temperaments; I take pride in getting to know each dog as an individual and building a strong relationship wherein they are each able to trust me as their pack leader. Accordingly, I require a meet and greet ahead of any new pack member's first day of care. This gives you the chance to see the outdoor space and ask any questions you may have, as it enables me to evaluate their temperament and establish a rapport. I find that this consistently sets them up for a smooth acclimation and a happy, successful stay!

A typical day

In my experience, dogs are eager to find their role in any pack and thrive when given consistent, directed activity. Walks on leash are an excellent way to give them mental and physical exercise while building a strong foundation of trust and respect.

Caring for your dog ideally involves open and ongoing communication. Let me know of any particular needs your dog may have, what you are working on getting them more comfortable with, or if you are discouraging any unwanted behaviors; I have experience with administering medications, training, working with special needs dogs, nail trims, baths, and more. I look forward to applying my skill set to each individual.
