About the owner, Chelsea:
Hi, I’m Chelsea... a dog lover, and yes, also a Doctor of Clinical Psychology.
I have always wanted a dog since I was three years old. I didn't get my first dog until 2 years ago, which is when I got my Copper Bear. Growing up, my father was in the military, and we moved around a lot. Both of my parents are also dog lovers, but they always preached to me how important it is to include dogs in our family. The reason I never had a dog is that my parents emphasized how sad they would be if we went away on frequent trips, and the stress that would be on them from our consistent moves. Growing up with these values taught me the importance of treating my fur babies like my human children. I didn't get my first fur baby (Copper) until I knew I was ready to dedicate my life to them. I hope to be a safe and responsible place you can lean on when you are busy or plan to go away.
When your fur baby comes to stay, I provide regular walks, comfort, and especially include them as if they are a part of my family. In addition, if your fur baby sleeps with you, I will let them sleep with me. This is why I like to ask how they sleep, so I can give them love when they need but also give them their own space if needed.
So excited to meet your fur baby, love on them, and welcome them to our family. For the past five years, I have been watching over my family and friends’ fur baby. I always treat them like my own. I provide so much love and empathy, especially when they need extra comfort when you are away. It makes me happy to see your fur baby happy.
Why should you choose us?
When it comes to personal experience, I have two fur babies of my own who are my world. I spend most of my time with them, and one of my favorite roles in life is being a dog mom. I also know how it feels to leave my dogs alone or to be on trips without them. I have a very big heart and can't help but fall in love with every dog I sit. They will become my babies, too! I will make sure to comfort them, love them, and spoil them while you are away.
Unlike some who may offer doggy daycare and boarding services solely for financial or personal gain, my motivation stems from a deep love for dogs and a genuine desire to nurture them. The joy I experience in caring for dogs extends beyond personal gain. I always get excited to feed them in the morning and night, along with taking them on enjoyable walks. This is my dream job, along with providing therapy for patients as a future psychologist.
Moreover, I place great emphasis on communication and transparency. It is my commitment to maintain open lines of communication throughout your pet's stay, providing regular updates on their well-being and activities. Whether sharing positive experiences or addressing any concerns, I prioritize honesty and strive to keep you fully informed, ensuring peace of mind throughout your time apart from your beloved fur baby.
Lastly, it's important to note that we maintain stringent requirements for boarding to prioritize the safety and well-being of all animals and humans involved. We take these requirements seriously, as honesty and transparency are fundamental to our operations. In cases where individuals fail to meet our standards or are not forthcoming with pertinent information, we reserve the right to decline future bookings. This commitment ensures a safe and secure environment for all furry guests under our care.

I've always championed the importance of daily walks for dogs. It's undeniably their highlight of the day. As dog walkers, I have the privilege to meet this essential need. I firmly believe our furry companions deserve to enjoy the great outdoors just as much as we do.
I operate my own personal training and massage business, which allows me flexibility throughout the day. I have ample time available when I'm not attending to clients. When scheduling dog walks, I prioritize cooler hours to ensure the comfort and safety of the furry pups. I strive to walk your dogs in familiar and comfortable areas where they feel at ease. New environments can be overwhelming for them, so my priority is ensuring they get out, stay active, and feel secure during our walks.
My fur babies:
I have an English creme Golden Retriever and a Cavalier King Charles Spaniel. My fur babies are both extremely friendly. Copper (Cavalier King Charles) is very gentle and sweet. He is very calm and gentle and prefers to cuddle with other dogs instead of playing. He is perfect for the quiet fur babies who like to cuddle and sleep all day. Copper is more on the timid side and might get overwhelmed with dogs that like to rough play and in this case, he will run to me to cuddle.
Momoko has puppy energy and is a big extrovert. She loves anything that breathes! When meeting your fur baby, she will get very excited because she is very social and playful. After settling in, she relaxes and takes naps most of the day. The initial meeting is when she is the most excited. If your dog is not the playful type, she knows to eventually take a step back and give your fur baby space. Momoko is also a love bug and will try to kiss your fur baby and cuddle with them if they are more on the calm side. She is especially perfect for fur babies that have lots of energy and want to make new friends to play with.
