Information Sandra U. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your dog has any special needs, preferences, and or quirks. I am very accommodating and flexible and want to make your companion's stay as comfortable and stress-free as possible. It is helpful to bring: * sufficient food & treats for their stay. * a familiar item such as a blanket or favorite toy. **Daycare is up to 10 hours between 7am- 6pm**

A typical day

Depending on your dog's energy level and physical abilities, we have lots of clean toys to play fetch with both indoors and outdoors. Each dog is unique and activities will be tailored accordingly. Of course, couch potatoes are always welcome 🐶

EXCLUSIVE trusted care 🐾❤️ 🐾

Pet care experience

I believe in quality, not quantity. I provide exclusive, quality care, only 1 client at a time, with a maximum of 2 small to medium size non-aggresive dogs from the same household in order to provide each furry guest the most devoted amount of attention and loving care they deserve, in a stress-free, uncrowded, and safe environment. I have a small, extremely loving and friendly two year old female dog that is a great ambassador and welcomes all friendly dogs. I work at and am always home, so pets are never unsupervised. I know the worry and concern that comes with needing to leave a beloved pet in the care of others. I treat your pet with the same consideration as I would want mine treated. There's nothing better than having your dog stay in a home environment, as opposed to a loud kennel or boarding facility where they are usually confined to a crate most of the time. I do not crate, here they roam freely in the house in a safe, quiet, and comfortable setting. They are free to lounge on sofas and beds, have lots of toys to play with, and and a secure backyard for supervised outdoor activities and potty breaks. Over the course of my life, I've had numerous rescue dogs that I've given the best opportunity to live out the best, most fulfilling rest of their lives. I have a substantial amount of experience with seniors, health issues, and disabilities. Your pet will be treated just like family 🐾

Sandra was amazing. She is very knowledgeable about dog care and wellness. She was great as far as keeping us updated on pancake’s care. We were sent pictures, videos, and texts. She really did give pancake so much love and care while in her care. It gave us so much of peace of mind knowing that pancake was in good hands. My husband and I would ABSOLUTELY recommend Sandra and her mom to anyone looking for pet care. Thank you so much again for the love and care you showed pancake.

Sandra is the absolute best. Boujee loves her and her dog Monkey so much. I am completely confident that our pet is well cared for when with her.

Sandra took care of my dog for a week during the holidays. Her communication was top notch, and I’ve never felt better about boarding my dog 😊 Fully recommend!
