If your dog has ever had aggressive tendencies, please let me know beforehand so I can take necessary precautions. 4. I cannot take non potty trained dogs since I have some carpeted floors.

Huge Fence Yard. Fulltime Stay home

Pet care experience

Been around dogs my entire life. I love dogs and like to take care of different sizes and breeds. Growing up, we had a German Shepherd for 15 years. Shortly after getting my engineering degree, I had a Weimaraner for about 8 years. I don't have any pets now. I am flexible and love to help when last-minute things come up in everyday life. I have two beautiful girls 20 and 11 and they love dogs as well. I live in a safe, dog-friendly neighborhood in Waukee. I have a large fenced-in yard that provides even large dogs the freedom to run. We have tons of dog toys. In the basement, we have a kennel made with a 24x7 camera view from anywhere in the world. I work from home so I don't normally kennel them and let them run around the house freely. I like to take them for walks 3-4 times a day. It's relaxing. I will treat your dog like family so you can have a stress-free and relaxing getaway. I have a natural ability to train any dog while they are staying with me. ** I take a lot of pictures and videos of your dog and will send them to you so you don't miss them. ** Check out my reviews to see what other pet owners say about me. ** I work from home so I am always playing or watching your pets. I'm currently working from home full time. I can easily give every 2 hr potty breaks. I have a fenced backyard and if needed I can easily crate your dogs. I also have a crate made up in the basement with cameras.

This was our first time using Alok. He boarded our pooch for 7 days, which was a long time, especially considering we had never used him previously. He was very responsive to questions and kept us informed on how our pup was adjusting. He has a nice back yard and plenty of inside dog toys! I could tell it likely didn't take long for Disco, our pooch, to feel right at home. We will definitely look to use Alok again in the future! Thanks again!

Our Belle is always cared for wonderfully. Alok is always polite and responsive with questions about her while in his care. We will definitely let him care for her again if needed.

He does a good job with my cane corso. She can be a handful at times.
