I have had furbabies for over 20 years ranging in all ages and they are very much family :) I do not believe in confining my furbabies to crates and I allow them to come and go into my private block fenced backyard by using a doggy door - humans can’t hold it longer than a few hours why should we expect these little ones to!? Clean water is available all day and I will work with your feeding schedule. My current furbabies are senior ladies and are kind and patient with all guests - I offer a calm, loving and dog friendly atmosphere. We encourage an initial introduction for a calmer transition for your furbaby prior to boarding. Best wishes in your search :)
