Dexter’s Home Stay’s
Whether you're heading out for a weekend getaway or an extended vacation, Dexter’s Home Stays are here to give you peace of mind. We offer both in-home boarding and house sitting options, so your pets can stay safe, comfortable, and well-cared-for in an environment that suits them best. Our home-based boarding is cozy, cage-free, and perfect for social dogs who enjoy a pack setting. Prefer your pets to stay in their own space? Our house sitting service ensures your pets get one-on-one care in the comfort of their home, keeping their routine as normal and stress-free as possible. No matter the option you choose, your pets will be treated like royalty — with love, attention, and personalized care every step of the way.
House Sitting
Our house sitting service is designed to keep your pets relaxed and comfortable in the place they know best — their own home. One of our trusted caregivers will stay overnight, making sure your pets are fed, exercised, and given plenty of love and attention, all while keeping their routine as consistent as possible. We care for all types of pets, from energetic dogs to cuddly cats, and can also handle basic household tasks like bringing in mail, watering plants, and taking out the garbage.
Please note that pets must be comfortable being left alone for up to 6 hours during the day, as we continue caring for other animals in our community. Dogs must also be friendly and social, as they’ll join us on structured pack walks throughout the day. This option is ideal for pets who prefer a quieter environment, need one-on-one attention, or do best staying in familiar surroundings. You’ll receive regular updates, photos, and check-ins during our stay, so you can travel with confidence knowing your pets are safe, loved, and happy.

Why Hire a Pet Sitter?
Familiar environment
Pets thrive in spaces they know. Staying home means less anxiety, no unfamiliar smells or sounds, and a much smoother experience overall.
Routine stays the same
From meal times to bedtime snuggles, your pet’s daily schedule stays intact. This consistency helps reduce stress and maintain good behavior while you're away.
One-on-one attention
Unlike boarding facilities, pet sitting offers personalized care focused solely on your pets. Whether they need extra playtime, cuddles, or patience, they get exactly what they need.
Home security
Having someone stay in your home makes it look occupied, which can deter break-ins and prevent issues while you're away.
All pets welcome
Dogs, cats, small animals, or mixed households — we’re happy to care for all species with the same love and attention.
A trusted relationship
With every visit, your pets get to know us better. That bond leads to less stress, easier transitions, and a trusted connection you can rely on time after time.
Dog Boarding
Our boarding service offers your dog a cozy, cage-free stay in one of our trusted staff’s homes — just like staying with a friend while you're away. This home-style approach ensures your dog is treated like part of the family, with comfy rest areas, daily routines, and plenty of love and attention. Because all boarding dogs join in on daycare activities, they must be comfortable around other dogs and humans, and able to settle in a group setting. To help them adjust and ensure a smooth stay, all boarding dogs are required to complete three full days of daycare prior to their first overnight.
Boarding stays include full days of daycare, social time, play, enrichment, and rest in a safe and structured home environment. Whether it’s a weekend away or a longer trip, your dog will be in good hands with experienced, caring staff who truly love what they do.

These drop-ins can include potty breaks, feeding, medication, playtime, or just some extra love and company. Ideal for dogs, cats, and small animals — especially puppies or seniors — our visits are tailored to meet each pet’s individual needs. We offer flexible evening, early morning, and bedtime time slots to fit into your schedule. Each visit includes updates so you can feel confident your pets are in caring hands.
