“Zarah is wonderful. My dog was so pleasantly tired after all the activities at Zarah's house- like playing, swimming and walking around the yard. Dogs are allowed in the house which makes it more like a home stay. Love it!!!!!”

About: I have over 20 years of experience caring for dogs of all sizes, as well as horses and a wide variety of animals. I’m certified in Pet CPR and First Aid and have educational certifications in dog and pet training, including puppy training. I also have hands-on experience with senior dogs and dogs needing extra care. For years, family and friends have trusted me to board their dogs, knowing they’ll receive safe, attentive, and loving care. I work as a professional artist with a flexible schedule, which allows me to plan my time around your pet’s specific needs. This flexibility ensures I can provide plenty of dedicated attention, enrichment, playtime, and individualized care throughout the day. I have access to ample yard space and lead an active lifestyle, allowing me to comfortably meet the needs of dogs with all energy levels, including working dogs. I provide attentive, individualized care with frequent potty breaks, fresh water, proper feeding, and crate care when needed. I’m experienced in providing additional medical support if required and am certified in Pet CPR and First Aid. I’m also located close to a pet emergency hospital for added peace of mind. I currently have one service dog, who can either be kept separate or provide calm, dog-friendly companionship upon request.

About: I’ve taken care of all kinds of animals my entire life. When I was younger I tried to save all animals big and small. I have a big heart for all kinds of pets and treat every animal with kindness and care as if they were part of my own family. I’m currently working part time so I have plenty of days that I’m free during the day to do pet walks, visits/ feeding, doggy daycare or overnight stays. I have a big yard that I can take your furry friend out leashed for long walks. My home is warm and inviting, your furry friend can romp around be crated if requested.

About: Dogs thrive on calm structure, and that’s exactly what I provide. I’m a certified sitter with 30+ years of hands-on experience and currently enrolled in an accredited, science based dog training program. I specialize in dogs who need a little extra help...anxious pups, first time boarders, high energy dogs, and dogs who get overwhelmed in new environments. I’m patient, observant, and focused on helping them feel safe, understood, and supported instead of just “tired out.” Your dog won’t be lost in a crowded, chaotic “yard free-for-all.” I host a low number of dogs at once so I can actually watch body language, manage energy, and keep routines consistent. Each dog gets individualized attention and a calm environment where they can settle and feel at home. Pet care is my full-time work, so your dog’s routine becomes my routine. Meals, walks, enrichment, rest, and any training cues you already use are followed consistently. Keeping things predictable helps dogs...especially anxious or reactive ones settle in fast and stay comfortable. My home is structured, supervised, and calm...not a pack play setup or unsupervised backyard chaos. Dogs get proper introductions, clear boundaries, and a predictable routine so they feel secure. I tailor the environment to each dog: decompression time, quiet areas, supervised social time only when appropriate, and no forced interactions. Dogs are always supervised, with thoughtful structure designed to prevent overstimulation or unsafe situations. Every dog is treated like a family member, not part of a random pack.

I live in a nice area close to town. I love all types of dogs and my schedule is very flexible being a realtor so i am always able to do walks at all times! would love to have overnight stay and would give extra love to all the dogs! I am a full time realtor so my schedule is made by me and can be very flexible. I can be pretty open with my hours. I have a fenced in yard and also own a duplex so I can house different dogs upstairs or separate if need be. I absolutely love dogs and cats so any pet will feel right at home with my care.

About: I am an animal lover here to help! I grew up with animals, and have 3 dogs and 2 cats of my own. I also owned ducks and chickens for several the years. I have many years experience with a variety of medical issues pertaining to dogs and cats, including allergies and epilepsy. I also have years of experience in dog and puppy training (not professionally), including adopting my own puppy 2 years ago. That same puppy is now approved and undergoing training to be a psychiatric service dog. My other 2 dogs are also well trained. Although we’re happy to take it easy, we also love to hike and would be happy to take your dog along! I am currently working per diem with a very flexible schedule, and hoping to dedicate my focus to doing something I love, caring for animals! I have a relatively open schedule at this time, and hope to fill the calendar with spending time with your dogs! My pets are my babies! I have a fenced in yard, with a dog door to access it. It does close, and can be kept closed during the day if needed as my dogs are extremely well trained, and also have the option to access to my home office (a separate building in the back yard) if needed. They have full range and free access to the downstairs, except we discourage them being in the kitchen. Our dogs are kept from the upstairs by a secured baby gate. They are allowed up there, just usually attended because the puppy sometimes confuses her human sisters toys for her own! We have a large property with a trail that we take our dogs up to, and also live very close to several hiking trails that we frequent. One of our dogs had to retire from long walks and hikes, so he stays home now, but he still loves a good car ride and a short easy walk!
