Availability

My first priority is your pets' safety and happiness. I am available for dog daycare in my home as well as overnight care anytime you need me. Your dog will have a safe, stress-free, loving environment and I am here with them at all times. We have potty breaks as often as needed in our securely fenced backyard. If the weather is nice, we enjoy lots of backyard playtime and occasional short on-leash walks in the neighborhood, weather permitting. Daily walks are not necessarily guaranteed. I do not take any dogs to off leash dog parks.

Safety, trust & environment

I have a fully fenced medium sized yard and I am home with the dogs 24/7. All dogs are treated like family, with constant attention and love. I have lots of comfy dog beds, or you can supply your own bed/crate. I do not require dogs to be crate trained, but if that is their safe space where they are comfortable I am happy to offer it as an option if you provide their crate. You are welcome to bring any toys or bedding from your home if you like, as having something that smells familiar can help with anxiety, however I cannot guarantee that toys won't be lost or chewed. I do have a variety of toys available for the dogs to enjoy. My home has excellent central heating and air conditioning. Even the fluffiest dogs will be cool and comfortable in the summer, and everyone is warm and cozy in the winter. I am very experienced in caring for a variety of pets in my home as well as in a professional dog daycare. I can read their body language and give each dog the individual attention, patience and love they deserve. I do require a quick outdoor on-leash meet & greet before booking any new clients for a brief in person introduction. Longer stays may require a trial overnight. I do not accept aggressive dogs. Puppy rates may apply to dogs up to 24 months old. I am open to accepting dogs that are above the listed weight limit if they are low energy and very friendly and gentle with other smaller dogs.

Information Amanda G. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your dog has any special needs that I should be aware of. I am able to give oral medication. I am happy to give your dog the very best care while they are staying with me. If anything else is required, please communicate with me and I am happy to work with you. This is their home away from home. I request that you use a traditional flat leash, and do not bring retractable leashes, as they can be very dangerous for both dogs and people for a variety of reasons. Thank you.

A typical day

Dogs staying with me will enjoy a stress-free, safe and loving homey environment. Frequent fun activities include spirited games of catch and chase in our fenced backyard, lots of indoor enrichment playtime, and a ton of cuddle time! Dogs are supervised by me at all times. I do not take dogs in my care to off-leash parks. Short, on-leash walks weather permitting but not necessarily guaranteed daily.

Pet care experience

Hello! I have worked full time at a dog daycare for 7 years, managing dogs of all breeds, ages and sizes in a space together, keeping them all safe and happy. I've taken care of dogs of all breeds and ages in my home, as well as a number of other animals. I love your pets like my own, they are my #1 priority. I'm experienced and dedicated, certified in Pet First Aid and CPR. I only accept a few dogs at a time, so your pets can enjoy a relaxed, safe, homey environment with lots of special attention and care. I do not accept dogs that have any signs or history of aggression. My daycare rates cover up to 10 hours of care. I am open to boarding other small animals as well, however I cannot accept cats. I have experience caring for small animals including hamsters, rabbits, guinea pigs, small birds and reptiles. This is a non-smoking, childfree house. If this is your 1st time booking with Rover, I can offer you a coupon code for $20 off your first booking with me.
