They had helped Anna for years and have now have ran it for years. David and Lydia are home schooled students - this provides them many hours home to love on your pets. As home school students, they started attending a co-op for the 2022-23 school year, meaning that we are gone most of the day on Mondays. This business not only teaches them responsibility, but also money management as they get som
e to spend and most goes into savings for the future. They primarily provide in-home pet boarding with the help of their family, but at times will also come to your home to care for your pets. We love all sorts of animals. My husband and I were both raised on small farms with several types of animals. In their life time, David and Lydia has had a dog, cats, fish, a gerbil, a snake, a rabbit, hedgehogs, a bearded dragon, and a crested gecko to help care for. We board most breeds of dogs, small or large. We do have one declawed cat. Our home is smoke-free. As a home school family, we are home most of the day, minus Mondays. I have some experience with giving dogs pills. We live in a very quiet, three cul-du-sac neighborhood, which provides a great one mile loop for safely walking dogs. For the safety of the dogs, we only board one family’s dog(s) at a time, but there might be a few hours overlap during pick up/drop off days, and we will find a way to keep them separate if needed. On rare occasions, we do double board, but we also ask before doing so. We charge $25 a day for boarding dogs, and $15 a day for the second dog from the same home. (*starting April 2024 the charge will be $35/day for the first dog and $25/day for the second.) Your Home Care for Dogs--
