Safety, trust & environment

As of now we are offering supervised outdoor time with a possibility of some quiet indoor time as well. We have a large yard with lots of green space to run. It includes areas of 4-6’ fence and blackberry/ivy hedge.

Information Stella S. would like to know about your pet

We need to know how your pet is with kids. We have a 10 and 17 year old in the home. How they are with other dogs, and cats. Any behavioral issues or aggression. Are they used to being left with others or is this a totally new experience for them. Their favorite activities. Their normal routine. We love all breeds!

A typical day

Most dogs are really excited just to run and play in our big yard with the other dogs. If your pup is up for it, we try to do a 1-3 mile hike daily in the nearby forest. A stay here is very much just a home stay with a big family. Lots of people and pets to interact with. Lots of snuggles and attention for the pets who want it.

Stella was wonderful! She was able to watch my pup with very short notice which im very grateful for! Shes got a great area for the dogs to be outside and was great with communication. We were traveling and she offered lots of great information about the area as well. Great experience overall!

Stella is simply the best. We have used her many times over the years for boarding, house sitting and drop in’s. Trustworthy, caring, knowledgeable and communicative. Plus the pups love her 🐶

I am so happy to have found Stella! This was the second time she has cared for my three cats, one of whom is diabetic, while I am out of town. I feel 100% confident in her. She always sends photos when she is at my house, which is very comforting. She is a gem!
