Along with the .75 acres of property the dogs can run and play on, we have an air-conditioned/heated dog room, and we keep a larger doggie swimming pool open during the summer for a nice cool-off! All dogs that stay with us will be begging to come back! I have 15+ years of experience working as a trainer/groomer, working with dogs is a true passion. I also provide one on one training for sessions for families that request it. {This is offered only to those who board with us} My husband and I love to hike and run and on occasion we will take our pack with us. AS A BONUS: We generally bathe any fur-kids that stay with us prior to their going home.*schedule permitting* (this is a standard, not a rule) After a long trip, no one wants the hassle of dealing with a smelly/stinky doggie and we do everything we can to make this experience hassle free for you! :) OUR HOUSEHOLD RULES 1. Accidents can happen, we try to avoid chronic pee-ers. Not a deal-breaker, just please be honest about your dogs housebreaking habits so we can plan accordingly. ;) 2. We require ALL new dogs to do a meet and greet before we confirm booking so we can make sure we are a good fit for you and your doggo. 3. Please bring your dogs food and please bring a little extra in case you have a flight delay and the pup has to stay a little longer. (We charge a $25 fee if we have to make a special trip to get your dog more food.) Both of us work from home and are available 24/7 to love on and take care of your fur-baby. We take a lot of enjoyment from having dogs in our home. Because we have a relatively quiet neighborhood and two dogs who were therapy certified at one point, anxious/excitable/nervous dogs do very well in our pack. Very rarely do we have issues with destroying furniture, etc. In addition, we also have a sound machine for dogs who struggle with separation anxiety and/or thunderstorms/fireworks. Our goal is to provide a safe-haven for your pup where they can play in the backyard/basement or just chill and relax. Low stress=Happy Dog!
