Dog Boarding in Fair Oaks

I have had dogs in my life since childhood. I was a kennel technician/manager at a dog and cat Boarding Resort for many years, I am versed in the care, feeding and medication (including injections) of many dog breeds. I am also knowledgeable in behavior and discernment of many breeds. I am capable of supervising multiple dogs at one time and regularly had 10-15 dogs in my care at work daily. I also love spending many hours of one-on-one time. I consider myself to be a very social gentleman, not only with people but with dogs.

I have an immense passion for dogs no matter the size or shape or breed. I have lived with and cared for a vast variety of dogs since my childhood days. I currently have two small dogs, a Pomeranian mix & a Yorkie/Poodle mix.

I am a devout Christian currently serving as a soldier in the Salvation Army (Roseville corps) for the past 16 years where I continue to serve my Lord and Savior and my community.

I have studied, worked and trained with many breeds of dog over the last 40 years and have focused on behavior modifications over the last 8 yrs.

Large or small, old or new- I love them all!

I thank you for your consideration and I would love to meet you and your furry family member(s)!

I have had dogs in my life for thirty-five years. I know dogs well and can anticipate their needs. I have no problem with large breed dogs. I have a large and open home for dogs that encourages inside play, and a decent sized back yard. I can offer nature trail walks with a completely isolated one mile dirt trail just a block away from my doorstep. I am home 24/7 so your dog will never be lonely. I am also a UC Davis graduate and a California credentialed teacher so you know I will be safe and responsible with your dog. With over four years of experience in caring for dogs I feel very comfortable saying your dog will be in good hands while away from your family.

Hello, pets' parents!!!! Looking for a nice person to look after your loved ones? Well, you are looking at the right person. I pretty much grew up around dogs at home. My love for dogs is indescribable. I'm a very patience and animals’ lover. I currently own over 5-year-old pug, Rocky who had been trained well. He is neutered. I had him since he was only 6 weeks old. He is very friendly, darling and has a gentle heart. He gets along with all the dogs I have been watching. He is potty trained and can do many tricks. I didn't have to take him to a professional trainer or anything; I trained/raised him all by myself. I take him out for a walk in the morning and/or evening; it all depends on the weather. You will never feel regret for having me as your pets’ caregiver. I promise to treat them as my own. I will treat them as of how I want my own to be treated. One thing I know for sure is that all pups will enjoy their stay and be being taken care of me. Below are the descriptions of each service that I provided.

Boarding (Overnight In My Home)

I live in a home with a big backyard. It's a perfect place for all pups from the size small to large that I have been watching from the past. I keep my place very clean; therefore, pets’ owners don't need to worry about their pets picking up stuff on the ground. I live in an area which is very safe for human and all kind of pets. During their stay at my home, they will get to go out for a walk at least 3 times a day and will have full access to the patio area which I named Rocky's yard. They will have their meals as I'm told by their parents’ instruction. I'm good at following instructions. I will give them fun activities like playing fetch, tug a war etc. They are willing to sleep with me upon their parents' request at night. Most importantly, they will get lots of love and enjoy their stay here.

**All animals must be updated to all shots, and also must show me a proof of that**

**There will be extra charges if the stay is more than 24 hrs.**

**Please let me know in advance if your dog is house-broken or not.**

Do you want your dogs to get a bath by me during boarding, sitting, walking, daycare and check-ins services? It can be done as an extra service. I'm very patient and can give a bath well. My dog, Rocky loves taking a bath. I never had to take him to a dog spa or anything. You will be satisfied with my service on this.

People see me everywhere in the Natomas area walking my dog, a brindle colored, mid-sized fellow named Reno. We walk along Garden Hwy, through Discovery Park, along various bike trails and in Old Town Sacramento. I vary the walks, making them short or long, to keep things interesting for any dog I walk. That's why I volunteer at the Front Street Animal Shelter in Sacramento. I have the time because I am a retired call center manager with well developed organizational skills, as well as a deep love of dogs. My husband, also a dog lover who has an office in our home, is nearly always available to assist me with visiting dogs. Together we will take care of your very special family member. We have the boarding experience to handle the different personalities and special needs of dogs. Whether they are small and shy, or outgoing, full of energy, we know how to customize our environment to create a safe, fun and personalized experience for each dog. They have FUN, exercise, rest and love!

I'm sorry but we are not accepting new clients at this time.

My wife and I became members in 2014 when we were looking for a pet sitter for our own dogs. It has been a great experience for us, and now we will watch your fur babies while you're away.

We love all animals and have been pet sitting for our family and friends for nearly 30 years. We now have only 1 dog and also 3 cats currently so if your dog(s) is aggressive towards cats we can only watch your babies in your own home. When we watch dogs in your own home, we will make 2- 3 visits per day with them depending on their needs, but we do not sleep at your house.

We have a home in Lincoln, CA, with a small, fenced backyard. We work from home so your animals will be supervised and get lots of love and attention throughout the day. Please also keep in mind, that while we do not have children who live in our home, our grand babies, and other child relatives are often here visiting and staying the night. If your pet does not do well with toddlers and children around, then we totally understand but this would not be a good fit.

From our own experiences, we know how hard it is to find dependable and reliable pet sitters for your furry family so we will always work with you on your dates, whether it is last minute or trip extensions. We do want to do a meet and greet prior to your stay, and we also offer a multi animal discount for animals from the same family. It will only be an additional $10 per animal each per night. We look forward to working with you and taking care of your animals..

Hello!

As a dog owner, I know what it is like to need a caring, trustful sitter while you are away. So you can worry a little less. Someone who won't forget to feed, walk or let your dog out to go potty. It's not always easy to find someone like that. So if you have the same dilemma and need a sitter you feel comfortable leaving your dog with then call my husband and I :).

We have been doing this business for over 5 years now and love it:) I am home full time with the dogs and kids. My husband is also home during the day and bartends at night 4 times a week. We have a big dog room that is connected to the backyard—so most the time they just run in and out all day long and tire each other out haha. We usually watch about 4-8 at a time. We try to keep our max to 10 dogs and we book up fast during the summer and holidays.

About this sitter:

A little about us and our dog: We have been married for 7 years now. We have a little girl who just turned 3 years old and an almost 18 month old baby boy. We have a gate that separates them from the dog room and your dog is not around the kids unless you and we are comfortable and trust your dog to be. We live in a 4bd/3bth house with a big backyard. We have a 10 year old chow chow named Simba. We adopted him 8 years ago from a shelter when we lived in LA. He is really friendly, chill, happy, and well trained dog. He has pretty much gotten along with every dog he has met—and we have watched thousands of dogs now. He loves to run in the backyard when other dogs visit but usually lays in the house most of the day. He has taken dog training classes(not that he needed them) but because he is a chow chow, in order for us to get home owner insurance he had to take the classes. But now we have a certificate to prove he's a well trained dog ;). He loves little dogs. If you are worried about the dogs getting along we can do a meet and greet before hand. We also have a gate in our home that separates two rooms and can keep dogs separated if need be. Let me know if you have any questions or if you would like us to watch your dog for you!

Why I love dog sitting

My husband grew up with dogs. I have always been a dog lover but my parents unfortunately were not so I only got to play with other peoples dogs. But 8 years ago I finally got a dog of my own! My husband and I found Simba at a local shelter when we lived in LA and he brings me so much joy everyday :). He's not just a dog he is a member of our family.

About my yard

We have a big back yard that becomes a mini dog park most of the time. They have so much fun running around and playing. We leave our back door or doggy door open to go in and out as they want.

My experience administering medication

Depending on the medication. More comfortable with giving pills rather than shots.

Due to COVID-19 we are limiting our services. We will accept booking at this time for stay dates after May 1st. We are making a few exceptions for returning clients in the healthcare fields or return guests upon request.

We wish all of our pet families a healthy and safe few months while we all try to prevent the further spread of the COVID-19 virus.

We are an active, loving pet family with a fenced, clean yard for your pet to play and meet new playmates.

We have been sitting for over 4 years and enjoy taking care of family fur pals.

We care for your pups as a loving family. We like to go on walks on the hiking trails and to parks close to our home. We go on daily walks two to three times a day. We encourage a lot of outside play time. We provide pools for water play in the summer. We have a yard with a new fence and grass with lots of space for outside play time or laying in the sunshine or shade. If your fur pal is slowing down ...no problem...we match their activity level on walks or play time outside. Your pet will be safe, secure, pampered and loved during his/her stay in our home.

Please bring a harness for all stays. If you don’t have one one we have a few available. Please make sure your pet has an id tag with your information on their collar.

If your pup is crate trained for sleeping, we have a crate for their stay. They always sleep inside our home. They are supervised when they are playing outside in the yard.

Required over night stay things to bring: Food (in a sealed baggie or small container with your pups name on it, a leash, harness, clean bedding and any other care needs like medicine or treats.

We have doggie bowls and play toys. We generally care for more than one pup at a time so we don’t recommend toys or expensive bedding since the pups tend to share or chew a friends toy or bed sometimes.

We have experience with potty training puppies and caring for aging seniors and pups on medications.

Doggie Day Care:

Please book 24 hours in advance, same day requests may be declined at sitters discretion. Monday thru Friday Hours for daycare: 7 am to 6:00 pm. If the pick up time will be after 6 pm we may add an additional $6 per hour fee.

If you need a different time for work hours, let us know we can be flexible.

We love being your pets new destination for sleep overs or day care. We have a great group of regular visitors so your fur pal will have a fun, safe and active stay with us.

All questions are welcome!

Thank you we look forward to caring for your fur family.

Diann, Kevin and Connor
