“Jayda was great with both of my dogs, they loved having her stop by while I was gone. She was great with communication, sent lots of pictures, and even cleaned up after one of the dogs destroyed a toy.”
About: The vacation for your pet! We offer around-the-clock care for your furry friends in the comfort of our home, where they’re treated as part of our family. Our three daughters adore pets and have been taught to read their cues, ensuring a respectful and fun environment. Our spacious home is perfect for personalized one-on-one time, and we will go the extra mile to cater to your pet’s unique needs.

Our cats have the basement to themselves where they have time away if they need it too.

About: Hello! I’m Rebecca, and with 15 years of personal pet care and about 10 years of professional experience, I’ve developed a serious soft spot for all creatures—whether they’re big, small, feathery, scaly, or furry! I’ve completed both online and in-person courses in dog training and behavior, and I even know CPR and how to spot medical issues to ensure your fur baby has a fabulous and safe stay. I live in a spacious rambler with a large fully fenced backyard perfect for potty breaks and playtime. There’s also a fantastic park with a trail right next door, ideal for burning off that extra energy! I take dogs out every hour while I’m home and come back every 2 to 3 hours while I’m away. Plus, I offer two walks per day, weather and schedule permitting. If your dog is staying with me over the weekend, they’ll likely get a trip to the dog park or some easy, dog-friendly hiking trails. My extremely playful and friendly Mastiff/Chow mix loves to socialize and is great for added playtime and exercise, as well as two energetic kids, ages 7 and 11, who adore animals and are always up for a game! Your dog will have no shortage of cuddles and fun! I’m also more than happy to care for other pets, including reptiles and small mammals. I look forward to meeting you and your adorable companions soon! I hold a full-time position with a high degree of flexibility, allowing me to work remotely or periodically return home to attend to matters as needed, as I only work 5 mins away. I offer a securely fenced yard where your dogs can frolic and play to their heart’s content. Additionally, I have cameras both inside and outside the home, ensuring that even when I need to step away, I can keep a watchful eye on your furry friends.
About: I’ve always loved helping and working with dogs there was always a family dog. I have experience with training both large and small dogs. I can always help with minor things like sit and potty and kennel training. ive also had experience with puppy’s adult and senior dogs. Including special meals. I also have extra kennels all various sizes so no need to bring your own just bring a bed or blanket or toy ( something that smells like home) and your set everything is sanitized and washed between every dog. My family is usually very active so I’m usually up a little early around 8am i take the dogs to go potty and play around for a bit (15 ish 20 min) then they are fed (if that’s what the dog is use to ) and are out in there kennel to help digest after that they get to roam around and get out out to go potty every 2 hours or so. They then get to go to a park that we have in our neighborhood to play fetch. After that i drive over to pick up the kids and i usually bring our dogs with when i get home it’s sports games or walks to go to then 2ed meal potty and ready for bed they get a lot of play time both indoors and outdoors where always trying to enrich the way they eat or even have them “work” for there food I have two dogs a small dog and a medium-large dog. Your dog will never be lonely. My dogs are completely kennel and basic obidence trained therefore they can be kenneled if needed or if you would like your dog not to interact with our dogs that is alright too. I have a fully fenced yard with multiple parks including a sport dog park near me. My home is big enough to be able to separate the dogs while each dog still having more than enough room to roam around and explore. I also provide kennels that are washed and disinfected between each boarding various sizes so no need to to bring your own. Just something that smells like home to help them with their stay.
