Doggy Day Care in Abide Awhile

About: Greetings, I am Obadina and I am a graduate of AK9i as a patrol Detection K9 handler and trainer. I went to Tennessee State for Animal Science Pre Veterinary Medicine where I learned animal husbandry. I used that experience to go on to be a vet tech as well as a pet bather and trainer. I am current K9 detection dog handler and trainer. I have experience with high drive dogs as well as nervous dogs and puppies. I can work with any and every dog, from fearful to aggressive. I also offer DeShed nail care and bathing services. DeShed services is when I remove the shedding undercoat that comes out usually during the change of seasons. It prevents mats and painful tangles which not only can relive pain and odor, but also keeps them cool during the warm summer months. It’s a very good alternative to shaving, which actually makes them hotter because their fur keeps the sun off of them . Animal Husbandry is my profession as a K9 handler. Your dogs will be treated like assets they are. It’s an hourly routine as animals respond to predictability which lowers stress levels which leads to better boarding experiences. Your asset will be housed in a climate controlled dry lockable indoor kennel run facility with a fenced in secured play area that’s easy to clean and plenty of storage for your pets supplies.

“Deaborah was very nice. When I arrived she talked to Coco and petted, also let Coco smell her. This gave Coco time to get to know her. This was my first time to leave Coco with someone I did not know at all. She sent me 3 pics of her. When I picked Coco up she was not shaking or trying to get out of Deaborah’s arms. That was a good sign for me. When I am back in this area again I will get Deaborah to babysit my fur baby again.”

“I am SO HAPPY we found Yaritza!!! She is amazing! She communities and sends pictures and videos of our fur baby throughout the day—which put my mind at ease, knowing that Clemi is in good hands and is being cared for. I can tell she enjoys working with animals. It’s Clemi’s second day with her and her Yorkie (Dexter) and she’s already so comfortable. I highly recommend her, 100%”

About: I've had the privilege of being a pet owner and rescuer since I was about 10 years old. I also have experience bottle feeding kittens and pups and taking care of the precious senior dog. I have the privilege of working from home which gives me the availability and flexibility to easily work around your pet's needs and schedule. You tell me what works for them, and I make it happen.

About: Animals are my life! I have always had pets growing up as a child and my love for them has grown into my adulthood even more. I have a passion for learning and understanding all different types of animals. My experience in Pet Care is from having my own pets and caring for family, friends and working for dog kennels over the years. My dream overall is to own a kennel and continue to care for animals like I've been doing from puppies to senior care which includes giving medication and following a strict feeding schedule , so this would be more of a learning experience for me regarding the business aspect because caring for animals just comes naturally to me. I would love to have a opportunity like this to do what I love everyday and make a income out of it but more importantly expand my knowledge and have my own schedule to work around and have that flexibility. I’m currently only working part-time so I’ll be with your pups the majority of the time also my wife is work from home and she loves the pups as well so they will never be home alone . They will have constant care and belly rubs. I have a unfenced yard and one dog to keep your fur baby entertained I’ll also provide anything needed for your dog on a day to day basis

About: Looking for a loving, attentive, caregiver to go above and beyond caring for your furry best friend while you are away? I’m retired with a lifetime of love and experience with dogs in show rings, obedience trials, agility and therapy work. I especially enjoy senior pups, shy pups, spoiled Divas, and overly sensitive or anxious fur babies under 20 lbs. My home is completely set up for your dog’s comfort and safety with 24/7 attention, peaceful stress-free environment, and activities specialized to their preferences. The number of pups is limited and I only take pups under 20 lbs over 1 year old for their safety and enjoyment. Your pup’s routines and schedules are maintained as you would care for them at home so they enjoy being here, eating and sleeping well. My “assistant” resident older dogs, Dunkin and Delilah, love sharing their pup-centered home, toys, treats and large, secure, fenced yard. Our home is near Ola (Keys Ferry Rd area) between McDonough and Jackson, and your pup will verify the attention and love is worth a few more minutes drive if you’re farther away. Your precious babies will enjoy the same daily care, routines and activities at my loving home they have in yours including mealtimes, pampering, daily brushing and teeth care. They can run and play in the large securely fenced yard, chill with me on the covered deck, snuggle on the couch, play in the ball pit, search the snuffle mat and even sleep in the bed. Best of all there are no concrete cages, kennel stress, lonely nights, chaos or contagions. Let’s schedule a free meet n greet in advance so you’ll have peace of mind booking your pup’s best home away from home. I’m a stay at home retiree so all my attention will be focused on your precious pup. I only care for small dogs under 20 lbs for their enjoyment and safety as well as your peace of mind. You will receive daily photos/videos and are welcome to call any time. Drop off/pick up times are flexible with no extra charges between 7 am to 8 pm. I will keep your potty training schedules (pads or outside) and can refresh some basics and socialization if needed. I do not offer professional grooming, but can do nails and bathe for an additional charge. My home is super pet friendly, safe and comfortable and pets are with me 24/7 (not in kennels, closed rooms, and never never left in the yard alone). I will pen or crate in full view only if needed due to persistent destructive chewing, aggression, sleeping or potty training issues, but prefer your dog be as free as if they were home with you and I will let you know if this is necessary. All dogs must be over 1 year old and under 20 lbs. Male dogs must be neutered. I can sometimes accommodate unspayed females and, with special circumstances and agreements, females in heat. Be sure to honestly evaluate your pup and let me know if issues such as toy aggression, housebreaking, digestion upsets, allergies, separation anxiety, etc. so I know how to best care for your pup and keep everyone safe and happy.
