Doggie Paws N' Play

Pet care experience

**please scroll to the bottom to read our boarding requirements. Thank you so much!!** IN OUR HOME WE PROVIDE: - A large loving clean smoke free environment for you furkids. -Our furkids have four large baskets filled with a variety of fun toys, and lots of doggie blankets to snuggle with. And of course you are welcome to bring along a favorite toy or blanket of their own. -NO kennels, NO cages, and your dog is never ever left alone. One or both of us is home. Always. -ALL pups need to be up to date on core vaccines (rabies, distemper) and must have flea protection on and be on a heartworm preventative. Thank you. -We provide a full house and a HUGE back yard that is fenced and provides plenty of exercise space. - We give healthy homemade treats between meals and lots of playtime and outdoor exercise in our large grassy yard. We look forward to caring for your furbabies soon Starting this exciting business with Rover, we love what we do!! Having many clients trust us at our home, or me at their home, with their furbabies is humbling and appreciated. My name is Amber and I am a Veterinary Technician. I have experience with older pups, medicating dogs and cats, caring for them, and taking care of young puppies. I've volunteered at the humane society working as a veterinary services volunteer medicating cats and dogs and giving dogs walks. I was also an animal care volunteer, cleaning kennels and taking dogs for walks. I volunteered there for over 6 years. I also volunteered at emergency animal clinics and I currently work at a veterinary hospital. :) My AMAZING mom helps me out and is always at home to supervise the fur kids. My mom grew up with dogs of many breeds and even cats too, she has experience giving medication by injection and oral meds as well. She is amazing with making sure all the pups are happy and spends a lot of time giving them the exercise pups need. We also have 3 dogs of our own; Rocky, Molly and Tao (Tay-O), all are well behaved and get along great with all people and pets. They are also very well trained and full of energy! They have made so many friends this past year! **Boarding Requirements** Pick up/ drop off policy (boarding in our home only)---- We allow a 2 hour grace period from drop off time to pick up time, after 2 hours we charge for daycare for the pick up date. Example: Drop off time is 3pm, pick up must be before 5pm on pick up date to avoid daycare charge. This is to be fair to our regular daycare clients. Please bring the following: -vaccination records showing rabies/distemper and bordetella. -bowls/food -favorite toys (optional) -bed (optional) -crate (optional but if owners crate train or insist, we allow crates) please let us know if your pup is on supplements/medications, also please let us know if they are house trained or not. Thank you so much!!!

Great stay on short notice! Chula really enjoyed her complementary treats and doggy egg-nog. We really appreciated how quick the response was and were relieved she could accommodate over the holidays on such short notice. Thanks again!

Amber and Barb are life savers! We don't take our 100lb Berner anywhere else when we're gone overnight!

So much to say about these wonderful folks! First off, we have been taking our pup here for years, and started when we lived in close proximity. Since then we have moved further West to Waukesha, but still choose to have our boy stay here, even though it's a farther drive for us now. They are incredibly caring, and provide the meaningful details and little things that make each stay special. The home is exceptionally clean and tidy, yet still have lots of community toys made available in organized baskets (TONS) which makes it enticing and fun for the dogs. In the summer they have had a little pool, and areas for shade. Always get some photos so we can see and share how our pup is doing. They have different areas of the home gated off, which makes corralling dogs much easier and strategic during drop-off and pick-up. Every time I pick up our dog, his two metal bowls are cleaned to perfection, such a nice touch! These are all amazing things that set them apart, and keep us coming back whenever we can. I appreciate that their availability is open and reasonable. The price paid for their service is well worth it - you get what you pay for. Worth getting the consistent service knowing there is confidence and trust that comes along with every stay. Also, Amber works in the veterinary care industry, which is an additional perk. Thank you for all you do, don't change your great style!
