Single Dog or Household Pack 🐕
Personalized Dog Boarding & One-on-One Care 🐕 One Dog—or One Household—at a Time 🐾 I’ve raised and cared for animals my entire life—from two wonderful Staffordshire Bull Terriers to cats and even a Scarlet Macaw. Over the years, I’ve learned that every animal has their own personality, routine, and needs. That’s why I keep my boarding intentionally small. I care for just one dog at a time, unless the dogs are from the same household. This means your pup gets my full attention in a calm home environment, without off-leash interaction with unfamiliar dogs. What Your Dog Can Expect 🐕 3–4 walks per day, tailored to their energy level and routine 🏡 A calm, comfortable home environment 👀 Close, attentive supervision throughout their stay 🥾 Local walks or valley hikes upon request ❤️ Personalized care based on your dog’s personality, habits, and needs My goal is simple: to make your dog feel comfortable, cared for, and at home while you’re away. Before Booking We’ll start with a quick conversation about your dog’s temperament, routine, exercise needs, and anything else that will help me provide the best care. If it feels like a good fit, we’ll schedule a meet & greet so your pup can meet me, explore the space, and get comfortable before their stay. Rates Rates are tailored to your dog’s individual needs, routine, and level of care. For repeat clients, we can establish a consistent rate that works comfortably for both of us. Every dog is different. Every stay is personalized.

Once again, Steven did an amazing job taking care of our pup Amina! Such a relief knowing she gets personalized attention and sooo many outdoor adventures! Excellent communication
Steve was amazing with Cooper! Several walks a day, water adventures, car rides and PupCups We didn’t worry about the dog at all so really enjoyed our vacation. Lots of pictures told the story of the daily adventures. 100% recommendation!
Steven does a great job with Tanner. He sends photos and communicates each day. I appreciate that Steven takes Tanner for several walks each day.tanner is still a puppy at heart. I will continue to book with Steven. Thank you
Steven truly provided my pup with a luxurious experience! He took such great care of him and made sure my high energy dog got plenty of exercise. I highly recommend!!
Steven was great with my two girls. He kept them busy with lots of walks and provided regular updates, which was really nice. You can tell he genuinely cares a lot about the dogs he watches.
We had never left our 3 year old dog with anyone but another friend before, so we were nervous about how an in home boarding would go with someone new. But Steven probably took better care of our pup than we do! Multiple walks per day, undivided attention, frequent updates, a pup cup, hikes… it’s any wonder she actually wanted to come home! We already have him booked for our next trip out of town!

Schedule
Dedicated Full-Time Dog Care When your dog stays with me, they’re never just left alone. Caring for dogs is my full-time job, and I provide around-the-clock supervision. Other than a brief trip for essentials, your pup has my full attention day and night. Because every dog has different needs, rates may vary. Some pups require more time, energy, or structure, and in those cases the rate is adjusted to reflect the additional supervision or management needed to keep them safe and comfortable. This ensures every dog receives the right level of care — and gives you the confidence that your furry friend is being looked after as if they were my own.

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
Safe & Secure Environment My home has a fully fenced backyard, built and maintained with safety in mind. After raising two strong alpha dogs here for 17 years, I made sure the fencing is secure and reliable. Dogs always get supervised time outside — I never just leave them unattended in the yard.
A typical day
Adventure & Daily Walks I live near Chatfield, so hikes and car rides are always on the game plan for dogs who enjoy adventure. The area is also great for park walks and local strolls, giving me plenty of options to match your dog’s energy level. Whether it’s a relaxing neighborhood walk or a longer outing, I build a specialized care plan around your dog’s needs and your requests.
