_Pets Are From Heaven_





Drop Off and Pick Up 
Are Between
8:00 AM to 7:00 PM
Monday - Sunday
 
If you need service outside of these hours, please reserve the extra day needed and/or message me.  I will try to accommodate you as best as possible.

Please note I do not charge per hour... I charge calendar day because I have a limited amount of space. If your fur baby is with me for any part of a day, be it 24 hours or 6 hours, I do not book another client for that space on that day. It is so that I do not have a circumstance where there is inadvertent overlapping of clients. So full day rates apply from the day you drop your fur baby off to the day you pick him/her up regardless of drop off or pick up time. Thank you for your understanding. 

Example of how calendar days are counted; Both the start date and the end date are included in the count. Thus, if arrival day is January 1, through February 8th, January 1st is counted as day 1; January 2nd, is day 2; February 2nd, is day 33; and February 6th, is day 37.
 
Boarding Requirements

Pet must be up to date on all Vaccines: Rabies, Bordetella, Leptospirosis and DHLPP (distemper shot). Also, to maintain a "Flea/Tick Free" environment all doggies must be on "Flea/Tick" prevention.

I ask for small-breed dogs under 20 pounds. This is for the safety of my small-breed senior dog and the visiting dogs that vacation here.




Here are the U.S. holiday dates for 2025:
  • Martin Luther King Day: January 17 - January 20
  • President's Day: February 14 - February 17
  • Spring Break: March 21 - March 31
  • Memorial Day: May 23 - May 26
  • 4th of July: July 4 - July 7
  • Labor Day: August 29 - September 1
  • Columbus Day: October 8 - October 11
  • Thanksgiving: November 27 - November 30
  • Christmas & New Years: December 24 - January 1
Holidays are a busy time for everyone, pet parents and sitters alike. That's why sitter rates for dog boarding, dog day care, dog walking and drop in visits may be slightly higher during these in demand times of the years. If a booking includes any dates within the holiday period, the holiday rate will be applied for those days.

Special needs pets may incur additional charges even during standard rates. Rates can vary depending on if the sitter offers additional services like senior dog with diaper for incontinence or oral medication administration.


I know the anxiety a dog owner can feel from leaving their fur babies with a stranger for the first time, so I do my best to alleviate some of that stress and worry by sending regular updates with photos so that you can track the daily wellness and comfort of your four-legged family member. I also encourage my clients to reach out to me day or night with any concerns that may arise while away.  But the best way I have found to reduce anxiety is by a simple meet and greet before the initial boarding…. It is a wonderful way to make sure that everyone (fur babies included) is comfortable with our amenities and that all concerns are addressed for the upcoming separation. I thank you for your consideration of my services and hope to hear from you soon to schedule an appointment.

What to bring
  • Food (please bring food you dog(s) are used to.  Changing food - upset stomach)
  • Treats
  • Toys
  • Bed
  • *Pet info sheet
*To provide the best possible care I will give you a pet information sheet to fill out, so I know feeding schedule, special needs, medications, triggers, routines, likes/dislikes, emergency contact etc. Please complete and return. 

Typical Day

Outdoor play time with toys.  Running and catch/fetch. Lots of opportunities for interaction and play with other dogs, as well as time to roam and explore the back yard. Also, relaxation. 


Pet sitting is what I do full-time, so I dedicate all my time to your fur babies. I want to make sure they have a fantastic time and go home super happy and healthy. My home is secure. As a safety precaution, guests don't get access to the front door area to prevent dogs that might be dashers from trying to make a break for it.  All of our fences are 5" high and have barriers on the bottom of the fence and gates are very secure to prevent easy access to open them. Our home also has impact windows, so if we have to deal with a storm during hurricane season, we/doggies are pretty secure.
