Information Theresa M. would like to know about your pet

We have no breed preferences, but we can not have any aggressive dogs or excessive barkers. Given that we have young children and pets, your dog MUST get along well with others. We welcome any sized dog as long as they are gentle, sweet and get along well people and pets.

A typical day

We LOVE playing in our backyard- throwing the ball, playing with dogs, and pups have tons of access to the backyard for potty breaks. We also love playing indoors, the occasional bone to chew on and high quality treats. We are also experts at cuddling and belly scratching.

Your fur-baby's second home! 🐾

Pet care experience

Hello! We are Theresa, Trey, Walter (Pug), Daisy (Spaniel-mix), Betty (our beautiful cat), with two young children (7 and 4). Our four-legged babies are the light of our lives and we treat them with as much care and devotion as we do our two-legged babies. Theresa and Trey have been caring for pets since we were small children. Theresa also has extensive experience training dogs. We completely understand the stress that comes with leaving your furry kid when you go out of town, but you will be able to relax on your time away knowing that your pet is in the best of care and happy! Things to know about us: -Your beloved will be treated as a member of our family. -We encourage all the cuddling both on and off couches and your baby is also allowed in bed with us too, should they/you desire. -We especially love senior/older adult dogs. -We will follow any dietary or medication guidelines you may need, but hope that we can give the occasional treat or two. -We have a fully fenced in back yard with no holes. -A calm, loving and consistent home environment. Our pets are mellow, snuggly, and get along very well with other well behaved dogs. If your dog gets along well, with others, is calm, likes to gently play, cuddle, and run around a little in the yard, they will fit into our home. We do require that your dog be potty trained, is on the low-end of vocal-ness, gets along with very young children, other dogs and cats. We have tons of experience with short and long-term boarding. We specialize in long-term boarding (more than a few nights) so as to build a bond with your dog and give us all time to get to know each other. While are open to shorter stays for your very first booking, we do prefer 3-nights, as we have found that the settling in period allows your dog to trust our environment, feel comfortable, and adjusted. After their first stay, any amount of stay is great and they fall right back into the household. What you can expect from me. Should you reach out with a boarding request, I will send you a message to get to know a little bit more about your dog. We will set up a meet and greet at our home to make sure that we are a good fit for one another. We love repeat customers and believe all are best served with a strong foundation of getting to know one another. Please feel free to reach out with questions and we look forward to caring for your pup!!

Millie had a great experience with Theresa and her pack. Fun to know she was with dogs and kids that enjoyed her company. Updates and photos assured us she was getting all the love, play and cuddles she needed while we were away. We’ll definitely leave our pup with Theresa and family again!

Theresa took great care of Ollie and treated him like one of her own. She sent daily updates with pics and videos showing him content and having fun, so I never worried about him while I was away. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again.

Theresa was wonderful with my dog Bambi. I have had Bambi for 2.5 years and never left her. She at a great experience at Theresa's home. Can't recommend her enough. Thanks, Raymond Vincent

I genuinely could not have gotten luckier to have found Theresa and her family! They have been incredible with my little pub! Very attentive, always keep me informed on how he’s doing, and I never have to worry about him as long as I know he’s under their care. Again, thank you!
