Hi! I'm Stacey, your small dog's favorite Auntie. I am a lifelong dog lover with decades of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all breeds and personalities. Dogs have been part of my family since I was a baby and they've always held a special place in my heart. My Pet Care Journey: Growing up, I helped care for our Cocker Spaniel, Pepper and our Poodle Roger-both of whom lived long happy lives. Later, our family adopted two energetic Yorkies, Austin and Martin (names after Dr. King himself). As an adult, I welcomed a Bichon Frise named April Mae, who was my constant companion through life's adventures. We traveled together, spent summers side by side and formed a bond that touched everyone in our neighborhood- most people knew her name, even if they didn't know mine. After April passed, I eventually found my next furry companion: Mali Joy (pronounce Molly) a gentle 6 year old Maltipoo whose previous owner could no longer care for her. I gave her time, space and love to adjust and now she happily sleeps at my side every night. I am also the proud grandmother to a rescued terrier mix named Luna Marie adopted by my daughter and her spouse. Why Choose Me? As an Elementary School teacher, I have summers off and a flexible schedule to dedicate quality time to your pets. I offer: *Drop-in visits *Dog walks *Boarding for small-medium sized dogs Your pet's comfort and well-being are my top priorities. I provide a loving, patient, and safe environment where they can feel right at home. Whether your dog needs a walking buddy, or a staycation, I'm here to help! Let's chat. I'd love to meet your furry family member! Check out my picture gallery to see all the friends that have visited us!
