Important Information for Your Pet’s Stay: Your dog’s comfort, safety, and happiness are our top priorities. To ensure every guest has the best possible experience, we ask that you share any special needs, medications, or anxiety concerns with us in advance. We understand that being away from family can be stressful for some pets, and we do everything we can to make their stay as comfortable as possible. Crate Training Requirement: For the safety and comfort of all pets in our care, we require that every dog staying with us be crate-trained (no exceptions). While we do not routinely kennel dogs, crates provide a familiar and secure space if needed—such as when a pup shows signs of aggression, anxiety, or destructive behavior, or if they are already accustomed to sleeping in their kennel at home. We may also use a crate briefly if we need to step out for errands. Our goal is always to keep pets safe and calm, and kennels are used only when it is in the dog’s best interest. We provide a variety of kennel sizes (XS–XL), so there’s no need to bring one unless your dog has a preferred crate. Our House Rules: • No Marking: For the cleanliness and comfort of all pets, we cannot accept dogs who have a habit of marking (fixed or unfixed). If marking occurs, we’ll notify you immediately and require the dog to wear a disposable wrap. If the behavior continues, the stay may be ended early and future bookings declined. • No Aggression: We have a zero-tolerance policy for aggression. Should any aggressive behavior occur, you will be contacted immediately and asked to arrange alternative care. • Potty-Trained Only: All boarded dogs must be fully potty-trained and accustomed to going outside. We provide frequent outdoor breaks (every 1–3 hours). If accidents become consistent despite this schedule, we may require wraps/diapers and decline future bookings. • Good with Children: For safety, we cannot accept dogs who are not good around children. While our young child is never allowed to invade a dog’s space, we prioritize his safety as well as the comfort of our four-legged guests. What to Bring • Food • Dog bed (optional) • Medications (if needed) We provide all kennels, toys, and chews (antlers, bones, etc.), so there’s no need to pack extras. To avoid losing your pet’s favorite toys, we ask that you keep those at home. We also supply limited-ingredient, low-calorie treats for reward and enrichment—please let us know if your pet has allergies. Our Commitment to You We treat every dog as one of our own. You’ll be notified immediately if we notice any health concerns, changes in appetite, behavior, or bathroom habits, as well as in the event of emergencies. Our goal is always to provide a safe, loving, and worry-free stay for your furry family member.

Play, Comfort, and Daily Enrichment From fetch and frisbee to swimming, walking, and endless belly rubs—your pup will enjoy a variety of enrichment activities designed to keep them happy, healthy, and engaged. Our calm, quiet neighborhood is perfect for daily walks, and with a spacious yard plus direct access to a large backyard lake, energetic dogs have plenty of opportunities to run, play, and swim. For quieter moments, our home is just as welcoming—whether your dog prefers stretching out in the living room, curling up on the couch, or even snuggling in bed, they’ll feel right at home here. To keep you connected, we provide daily updates with photos or videos, typically morning and evening. And if you ever find yourself missing your pup, just reach out—we’re always happy to send an extra update so you can share in the fun they’re having while in our care.
