About: I offer a calm, personalized environment by caring for only a few dogs at a time—never more than three—so each pup gets plenty of attention. I have experience with senior dogs and dogs who need special routines, and I’m comfortable reinforcing training or providing gentle, senior-friendly care. My backyard is fully fenced for safe, comfortable outdoor play, and my own mellow, friendly dog makes a wonderful companion for visiting pups. I send regular photo and video updates, so you’ll always know your dog is happy, relaxed, and in good hands. I work from home, with a flexible schedule, so I’m around all day to hang out with the pups, give them potty breaks, and sneak in some playtime between work tasks. We usually start and end the day with a walk, and in between there’s plenty of supervised backyard playtime. In my home, dogs enjoy a balanced mix of structure, play, and plenty of affection. I keep a calm, relaxed atmosphere and follow each pup’s routine as closely as possible—from feeding schedules to favorite toys and nap spots—so they feel right at home. Dogs have regular potty breaks and safe outdoor play in my fully fenced backyard, and I’m always close by to supervise. I host no more than three dogs at a time, ensuring each one gets individual attention, along with companionship from my mellow, friendly resident dog.

“Beni is great! He sent me updates/photos, which helped put my mind at ease. My dog usually gets a bit anxious when I’m not around, but this time she seemed completely comfortable and happy upon my return. It was clear that she received plenty of love, attention, and playtime. I also appreciated how clean and tidy everything was when I came back! Would happily recommend Beni and look forward to seeing him regularly on Tuesdays!”
“Donna was quick to get back to me. Her home is as lovely as she is and I could tell my Stacy girl immediately felt comfortable. By the time I came back to get her, Stacy seemed completely at home.”
About: I’ve been taking care of animals and have had pets since I was born, and love spending time with them! I recently graduated from college and am excited to care for some cute dogs, cats, or any other animal that needs some love. I’m currently working part time, so my schedule is very flexible and I can come during the week or weekend! I am willing to discuss timing and what works best for you. I have a fenced yard and am 2 blocks from a dog park. I am also very happy to walk them or just hang with them at home.
