I have past experience working with rescues and dogs with chronic health issues. I have experience with birds, hamsters, guinea pigs, reptiles, amphibians, arachnids, rabbits, freshwater fish, and I am up to the challenge of other small animals. My partner has past training and experience working in a boarding facility/doggie daycare as well.
Daily enrichment is very important to me. Your pet will not be bored during its boarding. :) Enrichment is of course catered by species and interests. Dog enrichment includes indoor and outdoor play time, TV/movie time, music therapy, story time, arts and crafts, daily photos/videos of your pet sent to your phone.
GOOD TO KNOW: I am only set up to care for x-small dogs and small animal boarding. This includes small animals that have emotional issues or that have acute or chronic medical care needs (disability, dispense medication - not injections).
I am only a few minutes away from a 24 hour pet hospital in case of an emergency. I have a nice quiet home that is a calm stress-free environment ideal for dogs with anxiety, chronic health issues, and allergies.
This is a non-smoking home and no fragrances are ever used. I also have a HEPA air filter running 24/7. I like a good challenge and do not shy away from difficulty. Your pets crate/cage/terrarium/travel habitat, food, and toys are required in order to comfortably board your small pet.
Dogs are not crated at night here unless you bring a crate and they prefer to be crated. Dogs sleep in the bedroom with us at night in their own beds or they sleep in our bed. We let them choose where they want to sleep. Non-potty trained dogs sleep in our kitchen area in there beds overnight with an accessible potty pad.
**FREE basic grooming and bathing for all dogs!!
I am home all day and night other than running occasional errands, so I will have time for your pet around the clock. My partner is home in the mornings and evenings as well. I am able to meet the needs of xsmall dogs and small animals that need special attention and require more challenging care. Your small pet will have the option for out-of-habitat time and closely monitored outdoor time if requested. Fenced in dog park less than 1 block away. Open grass field behind home with shaded areas for dog on-leash exploring and potty breaks. Woodland walks available upon request (1 block away), both carried and leashed.
