A Home Away From Home for Your Dog

It all started with a few favors for friends — and before we knew it, caring for dogs became a big (and beloved) part of our daily life. As more people heard about Big Stretch Casita, we saw a real need for high-quality, overnight dog care that feels just like home. Big boarding facilities work for some, but many dogs do better with more personal attention — and we believe one-on-one care should never cost extra.

  • "Olive was so well cared for by Brenda & Milo! We really appreciated getting lots of photos and updates, and Olive was happy and comfortable. They were so devoted to all my dog's needs. Thank you!"

  • Milo and Brenda have been caring for my 2-year-old German Shepherd since he was a puppy, and they’ve been nothing but thoughtful and reliable. They truly consider each pet’s unique needs and adjust their routine accordingly. Their home is comfortable and welcoming, with cozy spots for my dog to relax wherever he chooses. I love the frequent updates, and I highly recommend them to anyone looking for dedicated, caring sitters."

Mandatory Meet & Greet

We require all new customers to schedule a quick 15-minute meet & greet at least 72 hours before your dog’s drop-off. During the meet & greet, we'll introduce our dogs outside, tour the outdoor area, and then head inside to check-out the accommodations.
