I have my PhD in Biology and years of experience in animal behavior, husbandry, and medical care. I currently work full time with the Nebraska Department of Transportation as a Wetland Biologist. I am only able to host doggy day care Friday-Sundays. Boarding is still 7 days a week. My dog, a long-haired chihuahua (Bandito) is 8 years old. Bandito is a sweet timid dog who loves to guard the neighborhood from the front window. (This is a favorite spot dog all dogs who have stayed here). He loves playing with other dogs, especially those near his own size. He is a sweetie and loves making new friends. We have a new kitten, Zeus. He will not be interacting while your pup stays over to reduce stress on everyone. Zeus is still new to the family and would be staying in his “safe space” (my son’s room) when visitors are here. My son is about to be a junior in high school. Your little pup will have a great time chasing bunnies and squirrels in our large fenced backyard (see pictures). My house is smoke free and animal friendly. Your pet(s) will be treated with lots of love and care - just like one of my own precious furry family members. In my home, our pets are family. I am easy to reach and will gladly send updates & pictures! Hours of operation: Day care: 6:00am-9:00pm Boarding: Boarding is a 24-hour block of service. Extra time beyond 25 hours will be billed as doggie daycare for the day in question. Late fee: late fee of $20 will be assessed if an owner is more than 30 minutes late past pick-up window established by sitter.
