Here is a list of information I prefer to have from owners: - dogs must have flea medication - spayed/neutered dogs - exceptions are rare - is your dog is reactive to people/dogs (this is not a negative thing I just need to know to better intro myself, and other dogs. No shame in extra assistance to make your dog comfortable. Please be honest. If the answer is you're not sure thats okay too) - is your dog toy or food aggressive? ( Most dogs are standoffish with their food and usually I recommend bringing a crate or kennel for them so they can eat in a private area for them where I can safely place their food for them) - what is their daily schedule / how long do they usually spend in their crate or alone. (This will give me an idea of around how long I should keep them in their crate if requested) - list of items you let your dog chew on or not chew on (some owners have preferences, mine is letting dogs chew on frozen beef marrow bones in their crates, but no string or non natural rope toys as those can easily be ingested and cause some irritation and/or harm. - what kind of food they eat in case I run out of the bag you give me (you will be charged for any extra food I need to buy so its important you tell me the brand and how much it costs for future purchases.) - any allergies your dog may have - if your dog needs any sort of specific training we can talk about trials and pricing. - how your dog does with baths (dogs get dirty so if I need to clean them what is your process, and would you rather I towel clean, wipe down or traditionally bathe your dog, all details help. ) - if your dog has enrichment toys, please bring. i want to make dogs feel as comfortable here as they can and these enrichment toys help so much. - if your dog has a marking problem please let me know so I am prepared - if your dog has any health issues please note the specifics - if medication is needed for your pup, please write out when it can be given and how often during the stay. - Required list of items to bring with your dog is: - Crate (please contact if there is a problem and we can discuss using one of my extras, but they're limited at the moment. - Dog Food for the whole stay (& dog food info ) - Training treats or toys - Downtime chews - any medications needed (currently only doing Oral) - poop bags - leash and collar or harness - food and water bowl

I like to see how the friendlier dogs work first with each other. Based on how the owner describes their dog I like to work in groups of 3 to avoid any issues and know how each dog plays/interacts with another.
