We offer boarding and sitting services for puppies, adult dogs, senior dogs, kittens, adult cats, senior cats, hens, roosters, pullets, and other backyard birds.

Boarding typically includes feeding, fresh water, walks, playtime, medication administration (if needed), and daily updates with photos or videos.

Standard drop-off is after 8 a.m., and pick-up is before 8 p.m. Early or late times may be available with prior arrangement.

Holidays are a busy time for everyone, sitters and pet parents alike. If a booking includes dates within a holiday period, a holiday rate will be applied to the first pet in the booking for the entire booking.

For example, the 2026 holiday period for Martin Luther King Day is January 16 - January 19. Let's say you booked a house sitting request from January 17 to January 21 for two dogs. Since the booking overlaps with this holiday period, the holiday rate would apply to the first dog for all four nights.
