In-Home Boarding
Where our house is their home!
This is a private service offered exclusively to trusted client referrals and veterinary referrals. We're so glad you found us.
Treat your dog to a vacation of their own in Erica's home!
Your pup will have the opportunity to make new friends, play and explore our fully fenced backyard, and lounge around the house as part of our family.
This isn't a kennel or a facility — it's a real home, with real love, and the added peace of mind that comes from having a Certified Veterinary Technician by your dog's side.
We have a special place in our hearts for senior dogs and those with medical or special needs.
Rates
$80/night — Standard rate (dogs over 12 months)
$95/night — Puppies under 12 months & special needs dogs
A Meet & Greet is required prior to your dog's first stay
All rates are per dog, per night.
Is Your Dog a Good Fit?
We want every stay to be a happy, peaceful experience for your dog and everyone in our home. Here's what we look for in our boarding guests:
✅ Your dog is likely a great fit if they are:
-
Very dog friendly and comfortable in a home with other dogs
-
Cat friendly or at minimum not cat aggressive — we do have cats!
-
Calm to moderately energetic — playful is wonderful, but we maintain a peaceful environment for our senior and special needs guests
-
Comfortable being away from home without significant distress
-
Under 40 pounds — though we will always consider senior or special needs dogs of any size who meet our other criteria
-
Over 12 months old (puppies are welcome at the $95/night rate)
❌ We may not be the right fit if your dog:
-
Does not do well with other dogs or has shown dog aggression
-
Chases or is aggressive toward cats
-
Has significant separation anxiety — this anxious energy can disrupt the calm environment we work hard to maintain for all of our guests. We'd love to recommend an in-home pet sitter who can stay in your home with your dog instead
-
Is highly energetic or difficult to manage in a home environment
We believe in honesty — if your dog isn't the right fit for our home, we'll always do our best to point you in the right direction. 🐾
