“Sherry is wonderful and her home is perfectly set up to provide the space the doggies need. Their own dog Enzo is a great playmate when Nyxie is there. I highly recommend her for doggie care :)”

About: Hi! I’m a full-time balanced dog trainer with over 5 years of hands-on experience, and I’m excited to now offer boarding and board-and-train services! Whether your dog is crate trained or not, reactive with people or dogs, or just needs structure and exercise while you’re away—I’ve got you covered. I specialize in behavior modification, so even dogs with more challenging needs are welcome here. Your dog will enjoy: • A fully fenced backyard • Plenty of daily engagement, training, and enrichment • Multiple crates and cozy dog beds available as needed • Walking access to a nearby dog park Understanding canine body language and preventing issues before they arise is at the core of what I do. My mission is to provide every dog in my care with structure, fulfillment, and a safe, enriching environment. Ready to work together or book a stay? Let’s chat—I’d love to meet you and your dog! Dogs are my full time job as a dog trainer! Since, I have boarding and private training with other clients. I make sure my personal dogs and dogs that are boarding are regularly walked and have potty breaks. All my dogs will be in a structured boarding program! In contrast to most daycare centers, your dogs will follow a set schedule tailored to them. including: * daily exercise * safe socialization * all dogs will sleep in their individual crates *no all-day free play *crate time **(Will offer training for loose leash walking and basic obedience if requested)

“MaryCatherine is AMAZING! This was my first time taking my dog a sitter so I was bit nervous, but once Buddy got there I knew he would be in great hands. She shared videos through the day to share how his day was going (which also gave me comfort). I would HIGHLY recommend her.”

“Anna and Jason are wonderful. They took great care of Shakespeare, followed care instructions perfectly, and sent us pictures and video. Shakespeare clearly had a wonderful time with them and their sweet pup. We would recommend Anna and Jason to everyone.”

“Briana came through for us in a pinch, responding promptly to our daycare request and providing top-notch care for our pup. We felt completely at ease leaving her with Briana, especially knowing that she also had a furry friend in Banks. Briana's regular updates, with videos and pictures, kept us connected and reassured throughout Maple's stay. The extra gesture of taking Maple on a lengthy walk, keeping her occupied with toys and treats, speaks volumes about Briana's dedication and kindness. Maple returned home happy and thoroughly worn out—a thank you Briana!”

“Natalia was awesome. Not only she was able to help me watch neeko at a very last minute due to me having to work but she took great care for her. She even walked Neeko for me during her day care stay which was a first from all the different sitter I had. Thank you Natalia!”

Rosa is very knowledgeable about dogs and training. I was VERY impressed. AND she was so accommodating with my very early and lengthy surgery work schedule.

About: As a proud dog mom to a playful 7-year-old Husky and a sweet 10-year-old Chihuahua, I understand that every dog has unique needs at every stage of life. I’m also the trusted go-to sitter for my family and friends—whether it's caring for energetic puppies or giving extra love and attention to senior dogs. You can count on me to treat your pet like my own, with patience, compassion, and lots of tail wags. I’m currently “micro-retired,” which means I have plenty of free time and flexibility to dedicate to your furry family members. Whether your pet needs constant supervision, scheduled feedings, playtime, or quiet companionship, I can fully accommodate their needs. Your pet’s care is my priority, and I’ve got the time and heart to match. Whether I’m caring for your pet in your home or mine, I make sure to follow their usual routine as closely as possible. I’ll ask for all the important details—Are they indoor or outdoor? When do they eat? How much exercise do they need? Any allergies or special instructions?—because consistency is key to keeping your pup happy, healthy, and comfortable. Their safety and well-being always come first.

About: We are dog lovers and have been taking care of them for over 15 years. We had a Shih Tzu ourselves who unfortunately passed last year, and we often took care of my son’s French Bull, who also reunited with our Shih Tzu last year, and Siberian Husky, as well as other family dogs. So don’t worry we have a lot of experience. We live in a downstairs apartment complex in an extremely pet-friendly community that has grass areas for your pups to run around and play at almost every corner, as well as a dog washing station. We’d love to do a meet and greet before drop-off to get to know you and your babies. We understand not only do you want to have peace of mind when you’re on vacation but your fur baby to have a great adventure as well. They will be in good hands with us. I am currently a college student, along with my 2 other roommates. Since we all have pretty flexible school schedules, with one of us graduating and another doing mostly online classes we are available most weekdays and weekends and on some holidays. Pick-up and drop-off times can be arranged and are flexible, same day services are also accepted. We have a fenced backyard patio and large grass areas in our community, if photos of the community are needed we can provide them before you guys book with us, or if you would like to check out our neighborhood we can arrange a meet and greet. Our neighborhood is dog-friendly and safe. It has many open areas for walking your dogs and provides poop bags. If your dog is crate trained please bring your crate if possible. If there is anything your dog may need to feel comfortable and secure please bring it. If medications are required, bring them if needed. We also provide some dog treats but if your pup has a preference please bring them as well. We want your babies to feel as comfortable and safe as possible!
