“Porter really had a great time plus was comfortable for his first stay away from home or me. Thank you Pazely for the photos and videos to calm my concerns. Porter will be back!”


“I was worried to leave Ruby for so long for her first time being away. Mckenzie took great care of her and sent me pictures everyday. She wore Ruby out, she slept in the car on the way home. Thank you for watching her and keeping up with her crazy energy.”


About: With over 20 years of experience caring for dogs and cats of all ages, sizes, and breeds, I provide personalized, attentive care tailored to each pet’s unique needs. I’m comfortable administering medications and have experience with everything from playful puppies to senior pets who need a gentler touch. Whether your furry friend needs extra cuddles, special care, or just a fun, safe place to stay—I’ve got it covered. Pet care is my full-time passion and priority—I'm dedicated 24/7. Whether it's daily walks, playtime, feeding, or just being there for companionship, your pet will receive constant attention and care. I'm always available to adapt to your pet's routine and needs, ensuring they feel safe, loved, and right at home. I offer a cozy, fully insulated barn equipped with air conditioning to keep your dog comfortable during those hot summer days. Each kennel features indoor/outdoor access, allowing your pup to go in and out as they please. Your dog will enjoy individual playtime in one of our multiple fully fenced yards—no co-mingling with other boarders, ensuring a safe and stress-free environment. They’ll have access to a pool and plenty of space to roam on my 1.5-acre fully fenced property. Cleanliness and hygiene are a top priority. Kennels are thoroughly cleaned and sanitized after each use, and yard waste is picked up daily. During your dog's stay, you'll receive regular photos and videos so you can see how much fun they’re having! With a lifetime of experience owning and caring for dogs of all breeds, I provide a safe, loving, and knowledgeable environment. I also offer optional baths and nail trims before your pup heads home (available for an additional fee). Feel free to call or text to schedule a tour and see if we’re the right fit for you and your furry family member!

“Susan and Darin take such great care of our Jax! They send frequent updates and treat him just like family! We love knowing he’s in such good hands while we’re away!”


“My dog had a blast hanging out with her and her family for the week! She made the process super easy and simple, and made it easy to have stress free vacation knowing my little Kota girl was being well taken care of and had plenty of fun playing in the yard and with the other dogs!”


“We had such a great experience leaving our dog with Becca! He got so much love and attention that he didn't even miss us. She sent us a picture every day of naps or walks to the park! She put our minds at ease so that we could more fully enjoy our time away. We will definitely book with her again! THANK YOU!!”


“Tiffany is wonderful!! Her and her family are so sweet and attentive. This was my first time leaving my puppy with anyone and she sent so many photos and updates to ensure I was in the loop and comfortable. I’d trust her with my dog anytime ◡̈”


“Crowe and Taylor are amazing dog sitters! We love the updates of pictures and pictures they send. We know our pup is loved and well taken care of. Highly recommend!”


“Kayla was such a perfect fit for Kira! I had never left my dog with someone I didn't know and Kayla was so understanding and helpful. Kira tends to be very skittish and wary of strangers. Kayla has a calming and patient presence that I know helped our girl feel taken care of while we were gone an entire week. I will definitely be using her services again!”



“Kyla was so great! We felt very comfortable leaving our dog with her for a longer period of time. She kept us updated and sent us a lot of pictures. She is very reliable and responsible. Would recommend!”


“Madilynn was a great! She communicated quick and was very flexible throughout the stay. She asked if we had any special requests and made sure all questions were answered. Madilynn sent us pictures during our trip and I could tell our dog felt right at home snuggled up on the couch with her. I would highly recommend Madilynn and we will definitely rebook with her for our next trip.”


“Nemesis did amazing for our 2 dogs! This was their first time saying anywhere else besides family. Nemesis sent pictures and videos multiple times per day. I could tell they were loved and cared for by their facial expressions!”


“Melissa and her family took very good care of our dog Dinah. She came Holme happy and exhausted from playing so much. Would definitely look to see if we can book with them again for future trips.”


“Elise did such a good job with my puppy! Our cute little furball came home happy and very well loved. Not only did her kids give her lots of attention (which is just like home), but our puppy got lots of interaction with their dog too, which was really helpful for her socializing. We knew she was in good hands! And as an added perk, Elise even sent a picture and video of our puppy playing in the snow. Too cute! Thank you, Elise! We will definitely be returning!”


About: My family growing up always had a dog- they have always been part of my family unit. Now that I’m an adult- my husband and I have a 12yr old boxer that is completely deaf that we love dearly! I have experienced with all ages and sizes- as well as needs. I’m currently a stay at home mom with an almost 4month old. My day is flexible, we can accommodate as needed and we enjoy being outside. I have years of experience watching other people’s dogs and homes. I enjoy getting to know the dogs personality, what they enjoy and making them feel loved while their loved ones are away.

“Joel was great. We got lots of photos and updates every day our dog was with him. He had a good mix of other dogs coming and going for the 4 days our dog was with him. They all seemed to get along and played well together. We will be using Joel again whenever we need our dog cared for.”
