Safety, trust & environment

We are very diligent with training so we can take them camping and bring them to dog parks so we will treat any guests with the same quality of care. We have 2 very friendly dogs in the home who love visitors of all types and are very playful but trained to give space when needed. 😾We do not tolerate bullying 😾 If your dog becomes Oscar the grouch they will corrected. Usually if an unruly guest is bullying other pups we use a mix of verbal and non-verbal signals to show them they are not the boss. We pay close attention to the interactions between the dogs. Most situations are diffused by standing up and asserting a strong stance towards the pushy-pup. We are proud to say we have never had a fight between any furry friends!

Information Samantha B. would like to know about your pet

I have worked with dogs all sizes and ages. I am happy to help with any special needs animals and specific medical requirements. I just need a small explanation of the situation and I can handle most cases. As a personal precaution I always state that in the event of a no-call no-show, after 48 hours animal control will be called to pick up the animals unfortunately. In the event I have another booking scheduled to start within the 48 hour no-call no-show, animal control will be called SOONER so my next booking will not be effected. We have, thankfully, never had to do this!

A typical day

We love fetch around this house and stimulating nose-work activities! I love to hide treats around the house and help the pups find their way to the goodies ?

Pet care experience

If you have a high-energy pup this is the vacation your furbaby needs 🥳 We have a crazy doodle and a sleepy basset. If your furry friend has permanent zoomies or sleeps 23 hours a day with only breaks to eat, they are in good company here! I started pet care at age 13. I have several years of dog grooming under my belt and have owned dogs of all varieties through the years. I have had boxers, bulldogs, terriers, hounds and I have loved them all. I have rescued, and adopted through breeders. I have cared for many medical issues, experience training puppies, and administering medicine to senior dogs with limited mobility. We have a cozy office, quiet basement and plenty of puppy gates. If your dog is a sweetheart but just prefers their own space, we are happy to accommodate them. If you have a "velcro dog" we are waiting with open arms! Most dogs don't eat the first day or 2 because of nerves but we keep lots of meal toppers to entice them to have a little something. It's a mix of sweet potato, chicken, cottage cheese, salmon, and brown rice. ✅️Meet N' Greets are required ✅️Must be well socialized ✅️Crate trained preferred but not a must ✅️MUST BE OK WITH CHILDREN ✅️Must be neutered/fixed unless too young

Another successful puppy sleepover with Samantha and her beautiful family. We can't say enough about the love and care she shows our Charlie boy while we're away. Highly recommend her exceptional service!!
