SF Small Dog Seeks Same as friends
Pet care experience
Do you have a small dog with anxiety who needs a home environment with someone while you are away? My small dog, Daisy, is the same way so I understand this special need for boarding in a gentle and loving home. We also have a small older cat named Penny. The past 10 years, I have been boarding a small, gentle dog who is a wonderful companion to Daisy and Penny. We are looking to find some new local canine friends to stay with us while their family is away! I’m retired and home most of the time. I require a Meet & greet scheduled ahead for new clients.
Reviews
Team Frozen (2 cavapoo princesses) love Carla, her husband and dog Daisy. They run around a fenced-in yard and get lots of scratches and attention. This is a well-managed home a dog parent can feel comfortable leaving their baby behind.
Lucy’s home away from home! Carla is a godsend!
Lucy loves her stays with Carla & I get to rest assured that she’s in great hands whenever I leave her in Carla’s care…her home away from home.
Carla did an excellent job with Zola. Zola has come home tired out from all the fun she had with her new dog pals. We are looking forward to coming back.
