Doggy Day Care • Jul 31, 2026

This was a short visit, but everything went smoothly. Communication was good, and Charlotte seemed well cared for when I picked her up. Thank you for taking care of her!

Shari was accommodating and caring when Teddy was not eating. I think Teddy had a good visit.

Shari took excellent care of our two senior doodles during a recent trip overseas. We so appreciated all the photos and the great communication. We knew our girls were in excellent, caring hands, which helped make our trip more enjoyable and worry-free.

We had a good experience. Shari provided 2 weeks of care for our dog, Ruby. Ruby is a rescue dog and can be nervous in new settings. Shari was so understanding and patient with Ruby (and me!) and her updates were so kind. I hope to book with Shari in the future.

Shari was so friendly, reliable, good communication with quick reply to texts and daily updates of my dog. Would definitely recommend and hopefully will be a repeat customer.

Safety, trust & environment

I live in lovely quiet residential neighborhood with an enclosed dog park that’s great for playing and sniffing. I take dogs for walks rain or shine.

Pets

A typical day

Lots of walks, playing both inside and outside, four dog beds, three huge sofa beds along with a human bed for nap times, overnight sleeps. And of course lots of snuggle time.

0 to 15 lbs
16 to 40 lbs
Dogs over 1 year old
Spayed and neutered dogs only
No females in heat
Shari can host up to 2 pets per night
My preference is for small to medium-sized dogs. 🐕 also request that each dog have a secure collar with ID tags with up-to-date information. I have a lot of experience with boarding dogs as well as doggy daycare and housesitting. I like to know their daily routines, both active times of day and resting or nap times as well as meal times and times for snacks.
These prices are for 1 dog.
