Pet care experience

Your pets home away from home ♥️

Animals have always been a big part of my life, and caring for them is something I genuinely enjoy. I grew up with terriers and mixed breeds and have spent years caring for dogs of all sizes, personalities, and energy levels. As a family of animal lovers, we provide a safe, loving, home-based environment where pets are treated like part of the family. Whether your dog enjoys playtime, companionship, or simply a comfortable place to relax, we strive to make their stay as stress-free and enjoyable as possible while you’re away. I have several years of experience providing dog boarding and daycare and am committed to maintaining high standards of care. I am currently renewing my Pet CPR and First Aid certification to ensure I can continue providing the safest and most attentive care for every pet entrusted to me.

Definitely recommend. My dog had an ear sore and she tended to it as her own and I’m grateful for that. Will definitely use again.

Schedule

As a stay-at-home mom and experienced pet care provider, I structure my schedule around the dogs in my care. While our family maintains an active lifestyle, dogs are rarely left alone for extended periods and receive plenty of supervision, attention, exercise, and companionship throughout the day. Our home provides a safe, family-oriented environment where dogs can relax, play, and be treated like part of the family. When appropriate, guests may also join us for outdoor time, walks, and other dog-friendly activities to help keep them mentally and physically enriched during their stay.

Safety, trust & environment

I strive to provide a personalized, professional, and loving experience for every pet in my care. My goal is for each dog to feel safe, comfortable, and treated like a member of the family while you’re away. Safety and well-being are always my top priorities. I am currently renewing my Pet First Aid and CPR certification and am committed to maintaining a clean, secure, and low-stress environment for all of my guests. To ensure every dog receives the attention and care they deserve, I accept a limited number of pets at a time, allowing me to provide individualized care, supervision, and plenty of affection. I carefully screen potential guests to help maintain a safe and compatible environment for everyone in my care. Whether your dog loves to play, explore, or simply relax, I work to create a positive experience tailored to their unique personality and needs.

Pets

A typical day

My schedule varies from day to day, but I am home for much of the day and structure my routine around the dogs in my care. Dogs receive regular potty breaks, supervised outdoor time in our fenced yard, meals according to their normal routine, and plenty of attention throughout the day. Most of our activity takes place at home, where dogs can enjoy playtime in the yard, interaction with compatible canine friends, and a comfortable indoor environment for rest and relaxation. Because I accept a limited number of guests at a time, I am able to provide individualized care and supervision to help each dog feel safe and comfortable during their stay.

Please share as much information as possible about your pet before their stay. I am happy to provide a new client intake form to gather important details about your dog’s personality, routine, training, medical needs, and any special accommodations they may require. Please also let me know about any behavioral concerns, including reactivity, resource guarding, separation anxiety, escape tendencies, or interactions with children, cats, and other dogs. My home includes children, dogs, cats, and backyard chickens, so I carefully screen all guests to ensure they are a good fit for our family environment. For the safety and comfort of everyone in our home, I am unable to accept bully breeds or bully breed mixes at this time.
