Highlights
Pet care experience
Nature lover who loves dogs!
Hi! I’m Tammy, and I share my home — and my love of animals — with my husband, adult son, and our sweet senior Maltipoo, Griffin. We're a caring, dog-loving family based in Napa, and we specialize in watching small dogs who enjoy a calm, cozy environment and lots of attention. I work part-time as a Program Naturalist for a local nonprofit and occasionally as a Park Ranger with the City of Napa. I also support Napa Wildlife Rescue as a substitute Educator, so animals are a big part of my life — both personally and professionally. My work schedule is flexible, and when I'm away, my husband and adult son are here to help care for your dog. My son is especially great with animals — he’s autistic with low support needs, has incredibly high standards for pet care, and works at Petco once a week. He takes a calm, responsible approach with every animal, and dogs naturally feel safe and loved around him. Griffin, our older Maltipoo, is very gentle and gets along with almost all dogs, especially other small breeds. Because of his age and size, we generally only host small dogs, but sometimes will make exceptions. Someone is almost always home with your pet, and the longest they’d ever be alone is about 30 minutes — unless we discuss otherwise. We treat every guest dog like family, providing them with a safe, low-stress home full of cuddles, walks, and playtime. I always try to be very accommodating to my clients as they are often coming from out of town to visit Napa. My home is located in a nice neighborhood with a fenced in backyard and is only a mile from DT Napa. We’d love to meet your pup and give them a home-away-from-home while you’re away!

Ratings and reviews
Thank you Tammy and Chris! Bodie had a great time with you and Griffin, too! So appreciate you! Lorraine, Laguna Beach

Tammy cares for our dog like he was hers. He always comes back to us happy and excited but we can tell he was well taken care of. She is always easy to contact and even sends pictures of him.

Tammy cared for our dog like he was her own! Thank you!

Lucky was well cared for! Thank you!

Tammy took great care of our little dog on short notice. He is a picky little guy and he settled in quickly with Tammy and her family in their home.

Tammy is ALWAYS the best!

Schedule
I work part time as a park ranger and as a naturalist for a non profit I am able to work from home most days if needed. If I have to leave I make sure my son or my husband are home to watch the dogs until I get back.
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
We have a fenced in yard and we watch the dogs outside making sure there is nothing that could be a hazard to them. Our trash is kept in the garage when dogs are here to insure they don't get into it. We allow dogs on the furniture and beds l use mobile gates to keep them from going out the front door when the door is open or upstairs.
Pets
A typical day
We have toys and lots of comfy places for the dogs to lay. When they are outside we have cushions for them to lay in the sun if they want and water is always available inside and outside.
Prices include all fees.
