I'm Arial and live with my fiancé Alex on the southwest side of town. We have a 3 year old Yorkie, Zena, who is full of energy and loves playing with other dogs while they visit. We live in a nice quiet neighborhood which is perfect for taking walks, but also have a fenced in yard for the dogs to play in. Both Alex and I work full-time, and I usually get home first around 4. While we are at work we make the proper accommodations for the visiting pet(s). For new guests we prefer meet and greets, especially if we have another guest dog we'll be watching at the same time. While we try to be as flexible as possible with drop off and pick up, since we both work during the week drop offs need to be done after 4 p.m. and pick up must be before 9 p.m. If these times don't work please reach out and we can see if we can make a special arrangement. All dogs must be house trained, and if they are kennel trained please provide their kennel. Also, please provide a dog bed or something that helps make them feel at home (toy, blanket, etc.) along with their food. We do not allow guests dogs to sleep in our bed, but they are more than welcome to make themselves comfortable on the couch.
