Full-Time Passion: Unmatched Care
Pet care experience
Welcome, Dear Pet Parents! My name is Sunny, a transplant from the vibrant streets of Las Vegas, NV, to the serene expanses of Mequon, WI. Here, amidst the sprawling farmland, I find joy in providing a spacious and nurturing haven for multiple dogs, including my own beloved Snookie, a cuddly 12-year-old miniature pinscher. Alongside my partner Terry, we've turned our passion for animals into a full-time commitment, offering professional and loving care to your furry family members. With over a year of experience on Rover and officially launching our business in May 2023, we're proud to be well-prepared pet caretakers, certified in both Dog and Cat First Aid and CPR, as well as Professional Pet Boarding. Understanding the importance of trust and safety, I prioritize meet-and-greets or initial phone calls with all new clients. This ensures a secure and welcoming environment for everyone involved, including your precious pet. We require up-to-date immunization records as part of our commitment to the health and safety of all our guests. Life's unexpected moments are understood here, which is why we're flexible with same-day services, capacity permitting. From dog boarding and daycare to drop-ins and transportation, we're here to accommodate your needs with compassion and professionalism. I promise to care for your pet with the same love and attention I give my own, ensuring a home away from home where they can thrive and feel loved. We eagerly await the opportunity to welcome your pet into our family! With warm regards, Sunny
Reviews
I've never felt better about leaving my dogs with someone. Courteous, professional, and LOVES dogs. You can see it pouring out of them! I loved following the Instagram page and seeing all of the pics and videos of the dogs frolicking together and having a great time. I will definitely be using Sunny in the future and would highly recommend you do as well.
Great communication and care for our dog. Will definitely be using again.
My dog spent 4 nights here and seemed to love it. He has not stopped sleeping since being home which verifies he had a fun time! Thanks to Sunny for updates and answered questions!
Sunny did an amazing job with our girl Coco. We felt that Coco was well cared for and we appreciated the updates from Sunny. We will definitely be repeat customers in the future and will be recommending Sunny to others.

Safety, trust & environment
As a dedicated pet caretaker, ensuring the safety, trust, and comfort of your beloved pets is at the forefront of everything I do. I understand the immense trust you place in me when I care for your furry family members, and I am committed to exceeding your expectations in every aspect of my services. Here's a closer look at how I prioritize your pets' well-being: Boarding: My home has been thoughtfully adapted to include a fully safe dog kennel in the basement, designed to maximize your dogs' comfort and privacy. Each guest is provided with their own kennel, complete with continuous access to fresh water and food. Rest assured, kennel time is reserved for rest periods and feeding only, with a full day of daycare activities to keep them engaged and happy. I take pride in maintaining a hygienic environment, ensuring kennels are disinfected and cleaned daily for the safety of each guest. Cage-Free Boarding ($65 per night): For those looking to provide their dog with an extra level of comfort, our cage-free boarding option allows your pet to sleep comfortably in our home, free from kennels. This option is perfect for dogs who thrive better in a more open environment or for pet parents wishing to give their furry friends a special treat. To ensure the happiness and safety of all our guests, we require that dogs opting for cage-free boarding be fully potty trained. We also ask pet parents to inform us if their dog is prone to marking territory, counter surfing, or engaging in any behavior that could disrupt the household. Our priority is to provide a safe, trustworthy, and comfortable environment for every pet, and understanding these behaviors helps us better care for your dog. Daycare: Daycare with me means seven play sessions throughout the day, tailored to each dog's needs and personality. Dogs are assessed and placed into one of our specialized playgroups: Big Paws (for active medium to large breeds), Gentle Paws (for calmer or senior large breeds), Little Paws (for small dogs), and Lone Paws (for dogs better suited to individual play, at an additional $10 per day). Special groups are also created as needed to cater to unique play styles or social preferences. With a strict policy of no more than five dogs per caregiver, each play session is closely supervised to ensure safety and enjoyment. In-Home Visits: I treat your home with the utmost respect, following your instructions precisely for feeding, playtime, and home security. My commitment to your pet's and home's security is unwavering, ensuring doors are securely locked after each visit. Pick-Ups/Drop-Offs: Safety extends to transportation. My vehicle is equipped with dog seat belts and seat covers, ensuring secure and comfortable travel for your pet. Health and Safety Commitments: My dedication to your pet's health and safety is supported by my First Aid and CPR certification, along with a fully-stocked Pet First Aid Kit. I strictly adhere to dietary instructions provided by you, avoiding table food or unsanctioned treats. A healthy environment is paramount, which is why up-to-date vaccinations and a successful meet-and-greet interview are prerequisites for all pets under my care. Your pet's well-being is my mission. I am devoted to providing a nurturing, clean, and safe environment for them to enjoy. Should you have any questions or require further clarification, I am here to discuss your needs and alleviate any concerns.
