Highlights
Pet care experience
Cozy, kennel-free home boarding 🏡
I have over 20 years of experience caring for dogs of all sizes, ages, and temperaments, including 10 years working in rescue and fostering. This has given me strong experience with everything from high-energy dogs to anxious or shy personalities. I provide a calm, structured, kennel-free home where dogs are treated like family — not boarded in a facility. I have one friendly English Lab, Gracey, and four cats. I have extensive experience managing a multi-pet household and always prioritize safe, slow introductions and proper separation when needed to ensure every pet feels comfortable and secure. While my yard is not fenced, all outdoor time is fully supervised using secure tethers or leashes for safety. I am comfortable with feeding routines, administering medications, senior care, and tailoring each stay to your dog’s specific needs. I am the primary caregiver, but my 14-year-old daughter also helps and has grown up around animals, including 10 years of rescue and fostering experience. She is gentle, attentive, and always supervised. I also offer drop-in visits in the Scituate, RI area for dogs who prefer to stay in their own home. You’ll receive daily photo and video updates, along with clear communication, so you always know your dog is safe, happy, and well cared for.

Schedule
I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide consistent, attentive care throughout the day. Pets are rarely left alone for long periods, and I’m able to provide regular potty breaks, playtime, and supervision. I structure my day around the pets in my care to keep their routine as close to home as possible. This includes feeding schedules, outdoor time, walks, and rest. I am available for boarding, drop-ins in the Scituate, RI area, and can accommodate weekday and weekend care. My goal is to provide a calm, reliable routine so your pet feels safe and comfortable during their stay.

Safety, trust & environment
Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I provide a calm, structured, kennel-free home where pets are supervised and treated like family. I have one friendly English Lab and four cats, and I am experienced in managing a multi-pet household. I always use safe, slow introductions and can fully separate pets when needed to ensure everyone is comfortable and secure. While my yard is not fenced, all outdoor time is closely supervised using secure tethers or leashes. My home is equipped with indoor cameras for added safety and monitoring, allowing me to keep a close eye on pets at all times. I maintain a clean, safe environment and follow each pet’s routine closely, including feeding, medications, and any special instructions. I also provide daily photo and video updates so you always know your pet is safe, happy, and well cared for.
