Your Fur-Baby's home away from home

Hello, I am a loving and experienced pet owner of 2 fur babies which both recently passed away. We had to make the incredibly difficult decision on May 28th, 2024, to say goodbye to Max due to cancer, and our sweet Missey peacefully passed in her sleep on April 2nd 2025, of old age. She would have been 15 in May. Our hearts aches every single day for our losses. Thank you to all my wonderful clients for your continued support and friendship. We are deeply grateful for the opportunity to continue hosting your fur-babies. Their joyful presence is helping to slowly heal our hearts. We truly appreciate each and every one of you. We are still accepting new booking. Your fur baby will be hosted in my home, cared for and loved as if he or she was my own. They will have a lot of room to roam freely in my home. I will not crate your fur baby unless instructed to do so. They will also enjoy our spacious fenced in backyard for playtime with other furry friends, and if your fur baby enjoys the water, there is a splash pad available for them to cool off on hot summer days 🌞🐕🐾. All furry friends are given filtered water only. I also reward them with lickmats and other tasty treats. If your fur-baby have any allergies, please be sure to inform me prior to thier stay and kindly update thier profile details. A meet and greet is always arranged prior to confirming your booking, so i can pre-screen the temperament of your fur-baby. Prior to dropping off your pet, please be sure to provide your fur baby's health records with their updated vaccinations and any special care or medication instructions if needed, as well as their eating schedule. All parents are responsible for providing their fur-baby's food, treats, bowls, bed, poop bags, training pads, favorite toys and blankets. Your fur-baby will be walked twice daily around our family friendly and safe neighborhood, along with playtime in the backyard. All Puppies willl be kept indoors until all vaccines are up to date and approval from Vets is received to go outside and to interact with other dogs. Please feel free to contact me with any questions. FIRST TIME BOOKING NOTICE??!!

Stacia takes such wonderful care of my little buddy. He’s so happy with her and always comes back exhausted from playing with his friends!

Stacie provides truly outstanding care for my dog. She goes above and beyond — showering him with so much love, kindness, and sweet affection. She keeps him in a wonderfully structured, safe, and loving environment. Since being with Stacie, he is so well-behaved and extremely happy when he comes home. She even gives him little gifts when I pick him up, which is such a thoughtful touch. I also really appreciate that she always follows up with pictures and notifications, so I always know he's doing great. I am so grateful for her services and trust her completely. If you want someone who will treat your dog like family, Stacie is the one!

Our 5th stay(!!) and still as much of a fan as the first time. Bokie loved staying with Stacia and got some exposure to friends who he recognized in pics she sent us while we were away. Great experience 👍

Stacia was amazing with our Cavalier baby. She graciously accepted a semi last minute booking and sent us updates and pictures several times a day while we were away. Our dog looked happy and comfortable in every picture and she came back smelling good 🩷 We’re so thankful for the care our dog got.

While In the office, my son will be accommodating your fur baby (He is also experienced and was trained by yours truly). I will also have full visibility to your fur baby via home camara. Most fur babies that's trained to stay home alone usually sleep all day, 😴 or watch TV. YES, furry friends watch TV😄.
