Doggy Day Care in Apalachia

About: Welcome to Pecor's Pups! My wife and I have a lifetime of experience caring for all sorts of animals. We love dogs, especially. I have a veterinary care background, as I used to be a vet tech. I also have a Zoology degree and am experienced with various different types of animals and the care thereof. We have an energetic - yet very gentle - Golden Retriever and a rambunctious Great Pyrenees mix so all dogs staying with us must get along with other dogs. We would be willing to separate our pups for periods of time to give your little guy/girl one-on-one time, if that is your preference. We do have the ability to block off areas of the home to separate (from my dogs, or if you have more than one dog and they need separation) if needed. We have a large fenced in yard that is treated monthly to prevent fleas in the area. They can get all the playtime they need! If you don't wish for that, though, then that is not a problem either. I have a very comfortable environment for any and all animals who stay with me, with several dog beds that are washed and sanitized after each stay (and in between often) as well as tons of puzzle toys and enrichment activities if they're interested in that. Otherwise, we will just cuddle and hang out! I will stay strict with any and all schedules (feeding, treats, play time, potty time, medicines, etc) that you provide, but if you don't have a specific schedule for your dog, then I will put them on my dogs' feeding, play, treat, and potty schedule (except for younger or older puppies that may need a little more accommodation in that department) I am very easy-going and easy to deal with. I will also send as many updates via text as you want, with photos and "report cards" of your little ones activities for the day. We also provide baths, nail trims and ear cleanings! Let me know what you may need during your stay with us! If you have any further questions about me or our home and/or our dog and the services we provide, do not hesitate to reach out. We own two businesses from home (Pecor's Pups and another business) so we have a lot of time to dedicate to your pet(s) and their needs! I have a fenced in yard and two floors (the downstairs is currently under partial construction to make Pecor's Pups even more accommodating and cozy!) I can separate pets if needed for whatever reason, and there will be a lot of space outside for pups to roam whilst also being completely contained in the safety of my backyard.

About: I am so excited to start watching your pet. I have loved animals of all kinds all my life. I know how hard it is to leave your pet with just anybody especially a kennel. It's not always possible to take your pet with you everywhere you go. I think I can be the next best thing to them being at home with you and your family. I have 1 dog who loves playmates, I am home most of the time. I can take your dog outside for excercise. I live on acreage with a mile long driveway. there is no traffic. About this sitter: No matter where you roam, there is truly no place like home. I offer pet care in my home but if you and your dog would be more comfortable, I will come to you. Whether it's visiting your dog or cat just for the day, taking it on a walk or maybe spending the night with it, I am happy to do as little or as much as needed. I will love your pet and treat it like it was my own. Why I love dog sitting I have owned a dog of my life. I love any and all breeds. I worked for a veteranarian when I was younger just so I could spend more time and learn about dogs. Meet my pets I have 1 dogs and 2 cat. My animals are very well behaved and love playing with other animals. About my yard I have 110 acres. Very quiet and wooded. Plenty of room to play fetch or play with my dogs. There is also a pond and creek for swimming. My experience administering medication Yes, I am comfortable administering medications. I have experience with animals from working for a veteranarian. I only work outside of my home 2 days a week. I'm available most every day in some capacity. If you choose to bring your pet to my home, my 4 year old cairn terrier and I would be thrilled. I live on 110 acres. Far from any busy road. My home is pet friendly. I have a pond and a creek and several trails in the woods.

“Judy is very engaged with animals. Terrific stay and highly recommend her services she also does boarding and I would 100% use that service in addition to daycare”

“Darlene was an excellent sitter for our dog while we were on the river. She explained her procedures thoroughly, was very safety minded, and had a genuine caring for the dogs in her care. She put our mind at ease and took great care of our dog. Thanks Darlene! If we are in your area again, we wouldn't hesitate to call on you.”

“This is the fourth time I’ve used Victoria and I couldn’t be happier. She’s extremely flexible with my schedule and always takes such good care of Juno. Juno gets tons of attention and exercise playing with Victoria’s puppy Stark and I can tell that she loves going over there based on how easy it is to get her in the car on the mornings I take her over there. I can’t recommend her enough. She’s a great sitter for a great price”

“Mary was prompt in her response to me and was eager to take on our 6 month old puppy. Her 2 dogs seemed to get along well with our golden doodle and she had plenty of space for them to run and play. Her home is definitely off the beaten path, though so you will need gps for sure!”
