Pet care experience

Small dogs, family home, big yard!

I have had dogs around me for most of my life. A border collie, 2 pomeranians & now as a family we have Chihuahuas. I cater to only small breed dogs (under 20 lbs preferred), as mine are small (2-8lbs) & I want all of our small guests to feel safe as well. I am a full time, work at home mom with a small craft business. Your dog won't be left unattended for hours. My dogs have current vaccinations and I require your dogs to be up to date as well. I do require dogs to be kennel trained for night time and in the event I need to pop out during the day. This keeps everyone safe and in their own space.

We r very happy with Carla & her son. Max wasn't nervous as he has been with other places. We love that this is her fulltime job as Max needs someone fulltime with being blind. Will be going back & highly recommend!

Home away from home! It was Dusty’s first time staying and she did great. Dusty has anxiety, allergies and special dietary needs and I felt comfortable leaving her. It’s the first time she has stayed away from our home in many years.

Annie seemed to have fun playing with the other dogs and was well cared for. Carla sent us a few photos during the stay and Annie seemed happy and right at home.

Pets

A typical day

I live in a quiet neighborhood with a big, fully fenced yard. We have a basket full of assorted toys and chews to root through. Little dogs love to play tag in our yard, chasing each other at full speed! When it's naptime, we have dog beds or they can settle in for some cuddles on the sofa with us (you can bring a blanket or favorite dog bed if that's where your pet feels cozy). I require pups to be crate/kennel trained for sleeping at night time. I can provide treats and chews, or you can send along your dog's favorites.

0 to 15 lbs
16 to 40 lbs
Unspayed females accepted, neutered males only
No females in heat
Crate-trained dogs only
Carla can host up to 3 pets per night
Please let me know anything & everything you can about your dog's routine. I will try to follow it as close as possible so your dog can have a stress free stay here. Let me know about any medications or allergies. I do ask that your grown dog be fully potty trained to go outside (no pee pads). I have house trained my own dogs as puppies and understand puppy needs, so I do accept puppies in training as well. I have a clean, smoke free home and ask that your pet be regularly groomed or bathed and have trimmed nails for thier stay.
