History

Established in 2011.

My husband and I LOVE our dogs. We have never had less than two at a time in our home. Right now our official count is 6. Our dogs are part of our family. So much a part, that it made taking vacations very difficult as we were particular to the kind of care they received. Large kennel facilities never suited us as our dogs are not caged regularly and we couldn't stand the thought of it. And paying extra for playtime or walks seemed like a crazy idea. Splitting them up between good friends was always an option or having someone come to the house. Because we know firsthand what it is like to have to leave our babies in the care of someone else we decided to open our dog friendly home to other families in similar situations.

Meet the Business Owner: Tammy B.

I have 4 certified therapy dogs of my own and 1 in training. My proudest accomplishment is starting a therapy dog program in the elementary where I work and watching the lives that have been touched in a "paws"itive way because of it. In addition to training my own dogs, I help dog handlers train their puppies and adult dogs to reach their goal of canine good citizenship and therapy dog certification. I run the evaluations for Therapy dogs United, Inc. in the Erie area.
