Dog Daycare
Most “dog daycare near me” searches bring up crowded commercial spaces or app-based sitters. In our home-based environment, your pup becomes part of our daily life. They relax on the couch, follow their regular schedule, and enjoy a calm environment filled with positive interaction. Our setting is perfect for dogs who thrive with consistency and love.
We go beyond simple supervision—because we believe in meaningful care of your beloved pet. Our days include plenty of indoor enrichment, outside time, and gentle social opportunities. From puppy training reinforcement to senior dog comfort, we're here to provide thoughtful pet care in Baltimore.
Overnight Pet Sitting
With a Personal Touch
If you're traveling, our pet sitting and dog boarding services offer your pup a home-based alternative to kennels. Your dog stays in our home and is treated like one of the family, with cuddles and a routine that mirrors yours as closely as possible. First-time guests must schedule a test day to ensure a great fit for your pup, ours, and any current guests. We take the time to gather details like daily habits, feeding routines, and medications because quality care starts with understanding your dog's needs.
We Read the Cues So
Your Dog Feels at Home
With decades of hands-on experience and a certificate from CATCH Canine Trainers Academy, we recognize the signals dogs use to communicate. Some pups are full of energy, others enjoy quiet time, and we adjust our approach so each dog feels secure and relaxed in our care. Flexible Add-Ons to Make Life Easier Need help with more than just daycare? Our dog walking service gives your pet a chance to stretch their legs and stay active. You can add it to your pet sitting package or book it solo when your schedule gets busy. If your dog needs dog teeth cleaning, vet visits, or a trip to the groomer, we offer pet transport too.
