Pet care experience

We’ll love your pup like our own!!

My family and I had our own dog for thirteen years. She passed away a couple years ago and we are looking forward to having some dog joy back in our house. We have a twelve year old daughter that loves dogs as well. We live in a subdivision with sidewalks and would love to take your pup on walks. Your pup will have free roam of the house and be allowed on furniture and our bed (if that is what you would like). Your pup will be the only pup at my house at the time of boarding. I only allow one dog at my house at a time. They will be my top priority. There is nothing I would love to do more than take care of your pup.

Warm and wonderful family that made us feel comfortable leaving our dog in their care. Cheerfully extended my dog’s stay when my travel return was delayed.

Valerie was AMAZING watching our dog Charlie! Literally could not have had a better experience. Communication was always fast and let us know how he was doing every day of our trip. Will definitely use her again!

Safety, trust & environment

I have a large back yard. I will care for your dog based on the instructions you give me. Your dog is welcome on any surface of my home. Dog must be potty trained to go outside (not accepting pups that use pee pads) and dog must be non shedding (our daughter had allergies).

A typical day

I love to go on walks and I will take your pup with me. I also have a daughter that loves animals and is excited to have a dog in the house again.

I would like to know if there are any special accommodations that need to be made. I would like to know the personality of the dog. Please make sure your dog is 100% potty trained. Thank you.
