“Nicole is great with communication. She always sends pictures and updates so I know my dog is being well cared for! We’ve boarded our dog with Nicole multiple times now and we always have a good experience.”

“Niccolo took great care of Tilly and kept us updated throughout. We felt extremely secure and comfortable leaving Tilly with Niccolo’s family and were able to truly enjoy our time away knowing she would be so well taken care of. Would not hesitate rebook.”

About: I am a nurse practitioner with extensive professional caregiving experience and have had dogs my entire life. It is a gift to be a pet owner. Pets bring us so much joy and in return we get to give that joy back to them! I’m comfortable carefully following feeding schedules, routines and detailed care instructions, as well as administering routine medications. I would be the primary caregiver. One picture here is of my 15-year-old son Matthew who was at home. Also another friend in one of the pictures who visit often. I work part-time currently. I enjoy being at home with our dog and two cats! Most days I’m at home . If I am needed to work outside the house, I would not be away from home for over 6 hours. One Household at a Time — Personalized In-Home Boarding 🐾 I offer personalized overnight boarding in my home for dogs and cats who do best in a comfortable, relaxed home environment. What makes my boarding different is that I accept pets from only one visiting household at a time. Your pet won’t be one of several unrelated animals being boarded together. This allows me to provide focused, individualized care and plenty of attention, affection, playtime and companionship throughout their stay. For dogs: I have a friendly Golden Retriever and two cats of my own, so visiting dogs must be reliably cat-friendly and comfortable living around cats. I prefer a meet-and-greet before the first stay to make sure your dog is comfortable in our home and is a good fit with our resident pets. For cats: I welcome cats as well and provide a quiet, comfortable space where they can settle in at their own pace. I accept only one visiting cat at a time, or multiple cats from the same household, allowing me to provide a calm environment and plenty of individual attention. I am a nurse practitioner with extensive professional caregiving experience. I’m comfortable carefully following feeding schedules, routines and detailed care instructions, as well as administering routine medications. I especially enjoy caring for mature and senior pets and understand that some animals benefit from extra patience, reassurance and a predictable routine. You’ll receive regular photos and updates throughout your pet’s stay, so you can enjoy your time away knowing they’re comfortable, receiving plenty of attention and being cared for as an individual. My goal is for your pet to feel like a guest in my home—not one of many pets in a boarding facility. ❤️🐾

“Denise was wonderful. My dog is very timid with new people and he felt comfortable with Denise and her two sweet small dogs immediately. Really, it was a perfect fit. Denise was welcoming and communicative throughout. So happy to have met her!”

“Bob was amazing with Nellie! He actually fully trained my dog to go outside to potty. He is a kind compassionate person. His love for dogs is outstanding. Nellie was very happy upon my return. She was well taken care of and has a lifetime friend in Bob. Bob, you rock!”

“Great experience with Jess! Very grateful for her care and love of my pup!”

“Clayton was awesome. Lucca really seemed to enjoy his time with Clayton and Vanna. I loved the daily pictures and updates. I will definitly use them again.”

“Rosalynn and Angel were absolutely wonderful with my old dog. They did a great job of communicating while I was away and my girl came home happy. I will definitely be using them again in the future! So nice to know a trusted sitter in the area.”

Leslie R.

“Briahna took excellent care our dog and kept us updated and sent pictures while we were away. We really appreciated how well Millie was cared for!”

“Cecilia was so great with Luna! Understanding of special needs for anxiety/separation issues was not only able to accommodate my last minute request for day care, but fit in a meet and greet a day ahead to help Luna get comfortable with her and go over any needs. She went the extra mile staying late when I hit delays with work meetings and traffic, and was great with respecting limits and engaging Luna on her level for her intro sit, and reading dog behavior. I am picky about who I entrust my dog with, and I felt immediately comfortable with Cecilia on first meet. She demonstrated her care and professionalism from the start ~ asking the right pre-sit questions, clearly communicating, and providing regular updates while I was away. Really helped ease my mind and allow me to focus on the work I needed to do. I hope to continue with her as a regular sitter for Luna when we need someone!”

“I can’t sing higher praises for Emily! She’s been an absolute lifesaver for me and my Cane Corso. My baby (110 lbs…lol) absolutely adores her, and it’s easy to see why. She goes above and beyond, giving him all the love, attention, and exercise he needs. My girl don’t even bat an eye at his slobber! Haha It’s clear Emily genuinely cares for him, and I always feel completely at ease knowing he’s in such good hands. If you’re looking for a pet sitter who will treat your dog like their own, look no further—Emily is simply the best!”

“Kiley was amazing! Our dog,Cache, had an amazing week with her. She was super communicative and responsive (and amazing with dogs!). Thanks so much Kiley!”

Jessica H.

“Argos had a great time with Heather and her family. He is high energy and enjoyed the company of other dogs and playing lots of ball in the large fenced yard. He had a great time, and Heather kept me updated through my travels!”

Jeff S.

“Charley had a great time with Ksenia. She got to go to the beach which is her favorite and I got frequent updates. Thanks for taking good care of her :)”

About: I have been a dog owner since I was 5 and for then past 37 years I have had primarily beagles along with one Vizsla with typically 2 at any given time. Our last beagle Charlie passed away a few months ago and while we would like the freedom having no pet allows us we miss the company and unconditional love they offer us. My wife worked as a vet tech for 10 years so we are comfortable administering meds and I have been pretty successful with training pups (yes even beagles). I work mostly from home and my wife has the summers off from teaching so it fits great unto our routine and it would be a pleasure to have dogs underfoot again. We have crates if dogs feel at home in them but they are welcome in all the rooms downstairs. We live on a long dirt road which is perfect for walks and if it gets too hot we have a cool basement and a pond for them to swim in.

“We were very happy with Beatriz. Our dog came home happy and healthy, and Beatriz sent updates and pictures throughout the week. Her backyard space was huge and great for exercising our dog.”

“Carmen and her sweet family are AMAZING!!! I booked two last minute boarding stays for my dog Dolly within the same week and she was incredibly accommodating to these last minute requests. I loved all the updates and pictures of Dolly and even more importantly Dolly was SO well cared for and loved. When we returned for the second stay Dolly was so excited to be back which gave me so much peace of mind. Dolly has spent very little time away especially overnight but I will trust Carmen going forward to care for Dolly in a heart beat. I am grateful to have found a safe and loving home for my girl while I'm away!!! Your dog will feel right at home ☺️”

About: My first “job” as a kid was walking and letting out my neighbors’ dogs after school. From there, I started working in horse barns, managed a few barns, and then eventually became an equine massage practitioner full time. At the same time, I continued to train, compete with, and enjoy LOTS of hikes with my own personal dog. I worked as an assistant dog trainer for several years at a positive-reinforcement based facility, and gained a wealth of knowledge from the experience. I’ve used positive reinforcement training with dogs, cats, horses, rats, and even birds of prey! I have raised and trained a number of puppies/dogs for friends and family members, and have experience fostering as well. I’ve cared for and/or lived with dogs, cats, birds, rodents, exotic animals, horses, and other farm animals. While I am comfortable with any and all breeds of dogs, I especially love herding breeds! I am self-employed, and generally have a pretty flexible schedule with some notice! I am able to accommodate mornings, mid day, or afternoon/evening check-in’s. I have availability weekdays as well as weekends. I am happy to go over whatever your individual dog’s routine is in order to make sure they are as comfortable and safe as possible. Whether that’s making sure they stay in a fenced in yard, or going over the training tools that you use, I am more than willing to make sure that your dog is happy and that you have peace of mind knowing that they are sticking to a routine that they are comfortable and familiar with!
