I request a meet and greet with all dogs prior to booking. It's most important to me that my dogs are comfortable with your dog(s), and vice versa. I'd like to know about any behavior issues, any quirks, medical issues, allergies, and how s/he gets along with other dogs. I prefer to host smaller dogs, however, I am open to hosting big dogs who are well behaved and calm. My little two pups tend to get a little scared around dogs who are big and rambunctious! I ask that my clients provide all the necessities for their pup's stay and that I have current veterinary contact information. In addition, we prefer your pooch to be clean upon arrival, as we have some light colored furniture and we assume that most pups will want to sleep in bed with us!

Here's where we'll take our walks: The West Loop is a great neighborhood for dogs! We will walk up and down Randolph, and down Sangamon to Mary Bartelme park. There is a great dog park at Mary Bartelme, so if your dog likes the dog park, we will certainly bring him or her there! We will scale your pup's walk to his or her individual exercise needs. Your dog's sleeping arrangement: Wherever s/he is most comfortable. If your pooch is used to snuggling up in bed, s/he is more than welcome in our bed. If Fido is used to sleeping in a dog bed or crate, that can be arranged, too. Time I'll spend with your dog: I'm a full-time MBA student and have class just three times per week. I'm a pretty big homebody and am rarely gone for more than a 3-4 hours at at time. I usually spend my days playing with my pups, doing homework/research, and binge watching TV shows on Hulu.
