Hi there! My name is Caitlin. I am 33yrs old with 3 children. I am a stay at home mom. My husband works Full-time outside of our home, however is in attendance on weekends. My oldest child is 6yrs old, and my youngest are twins, currently 4yrs old. Did I mention we love dogs? We have our own family dog named Sage, who is a female blue heeler. She is 7 years old, and is young at heart. We throw the ball around, go out for walks/hikes, play in the water, lay in the shade and do tricks. She is very loved. I have watched dogs for 6 years now. It has been here and there for me, few and far between, however I feel it is time that I start making this a hobby turned job for myself. I find it very enjoyable! I plan to treat your pet as I would treat my own. They will be fed daily, played with and loved. We spend a lot of time outside, so your pet will be able to enjoy the environment around them. The yard is completely fenced in so they can have a sense of space and freedom under my watch. I am open to following feeding times for your pet, and following any special needs/attention your dog my require. Our house itself is "doggie free", but our yard provides much shade underneath our giant cottonwood trees, and we also have a dog pool for them to retreat to! *PLEASE NOTE, INDOORS ARE DOGGIE FREE. CRATES AND KENNELS ARE INSIDE OUR TEMP REGULATED GARAGE. PERFECT FOR DOGGIE SLEEPOVERS! *I do drop offs as early as 730am. Pickups are by 530pm unless discussed with me prior to the pick up date. I can be flexible! *If your dog is not picked up on original date, you will be charged an additional service fee. *I charge $5 a day in dog food if your pup runs out during his or her stay. *Pups (under 1yr of age) need to be crate/kennel trained and an additional fee of $5 per day/night will be applied to the going rate. Your pup will want and need that little extra attention. *We ask if your female dog is in heat while staying with us, you provide a crate of some sort for times when unattended. *I prefer your dog to have experience being in a crate. If I need to leave our home, or at night they must be pinned, it'd be a nicer experience for your fur family member to have that familiarity. I do not require complete crate training. That would be an added bonus. *To stay with us, your dog must be up to date with rabies vaccination! Up to date on all vaccines is appreciated. I look forward to meeting you and your fur family member!
