Pet care experience
Here for your furry friend!
I'm excited to have your furry friend over and will give them all the TLC they deserve while sticking to their regular schedules. I've been obsessed with dogs since I was a kid and have taken care of our family dog, Lucky, since he was a puppy up until he passed away due to old age at 17 years. I now have a 6 year old Shiba Inu, Sumi, and a 10 year old cat, Ellie. Sumi was a rescue mill mama and was extremely fearful. With patience and love, she's finally come out of her shell. I've managed to teach both the dog and the cat tricks and work on training with them daily.

Safety, trust & environment
I have a very chill and friendly Shiba Inu and Husky/Shepherd mix at home that can keep your dog company. I do have a cat that has their own room and can be separated if your dog doesn't get along with cats. I also have a large crate and two pens available if that's something you're used to doing. Baby gates are set up between each floor, but are usually left open for my dog. There are cameras on each floor so that I can keep an eye on the pets if I'm leaving the home or on a different floor.
Ratings and reviews
Just what we needed!
This was Snickers' second stay with Calvin & Vanessa and once again, they took great care of him! We were given multiple updates on how Snickers was doing and they even sent us photos to show us that Snickers was having a good time boarding at their home. We would highly recommend Calvin & Vanessa to anyone looking to board their fur baby!
Calvin was always on time. Had water ready for my dog. Walked for the length of the dog walk. And was able to manage my dog through some of her issues -- deer, loud vehicles... I highly recommend him as a dog walker.
Great experience with Calvin and Vanessa. Quick response times with pictures of our dog having a great time. And they were perfect professionals!!! We highly recommend them, and I will be rebooking in the future!
Here's what our dog Comet told me in the car on the way home: "Calvin & Vanessa are great, their home is comfy, their dogs are fun to play with -- perfect! I hope I get to go to their house again real soon!" "Oh you will for sure," I told him! -- & I recommend them highly, w/ no hesitation, to the rest of you pups & pup-parents out there!
Calvin and Vanessa were great! This was the first time my pup slept away from home so I was very worried but they not only put my mind at ease but loved on my dog and made her feel at home! Definitely recommend!

Schedule
I have a very flexible schedule at the moment and am home most of the day. I'll stick to whatever schedule your pet is used to so there won't be any confusion when they return to you. Our neighborhood is pretty large and also has a walking trail, so walks can be as short or long as you'd like. There's a dog friendly space downstairs with plenty of room to run around and play with toys, or if they prefer to chill, there's plenty of pet beds and blankets in the living room.

- Health & Medical Needs: Any medications, allergies, or ongoing health concerns? Routine & Preferences: Feeding schedules, Potty Schedules (especially poop schedules), favorite toys, or activities they enjoy? Behavioral Traits: Are they shy, playful, or nervous around strangers? Do they have any quirks or habits I should be aware of? House Rules: Any areas they aren’t allowed, specific care instructions, or routines you’d like me to maintain? I do wipe dogs' feet and butt after taking them outside. Please let me know if your dog doesn't like either area to be touched.
