🏡 Working from home full-time, you’ll have calm companionship throughout the day! Walks, runs, bathroom breaks, play, snuggles, rest, and affection are all naturally built into the rhythm of our itinerary. Lucky for you, I follow your schedule and preferences closely! Whether you prefer structure or flexibility, I adapt to whatever brings you the most comfort and security, especially if you’re shy, slow to warm up, or sensitive to change. 🧸 I’m committed to making sure your emotional and physical needs are met with full attentiveness and care. Don’t worry! You’ll never be left alone or exposed to any perilous surroundings or mysterious items! I’ll follow your usual routine (and your human’s special instructions) to keep things familiar and soothing during your retreat. No, no, not treat… REE-treat! (Unless your human says okay.) 💻 The best part of me working from home? You can rest, nap, or play with toys next to me, at my feet, on your own, or even in my lap while I’m on my laptop. And when it’s time for a break, we’ll head out for some fresh air and activity. Probably not touristy antiquing though. I don’t think they allow dogs. Not my fault. I don’t support this.

🛋️ You’ll love it here! Your room is an exceptionally a quiet, spacious 2 bedroom suite, expertly decorated by our top-tier Goodwill thrift designer/personal shopper. It’s filled with soft, cushy curl-up/sprawl-out surfaces, hazard-free zooming space, calm open energy, and natural light. Our windows are set at ground floor height for free complimentary puppy, squirrel, and people-watching entertainment! 🏨 Enjoy our special spacious floor plan, an ideal layout for a game of chase or your version of fetch (you know, the one where you refuse to give the ball back). Your stay also includes a ground floor patio and immediate access to plenty of greenery within the resort community. We can assist you with your daily dose of fresh air and sunbaths, plus access to our secure VIP designated dog walking areas for outdoor green time and mingling (for you socialites). The red carpet is currently being replaced due to shedding. We are in a very safe location for added peace of mind for all you celebrity guests. No paparazzi will disturb your stay. 🧐 Having taught little Pre-K human rascals, I have my eyes on you precious monsters (I mean angels). Even if you’re napping, outside, on the move (looking at you, my clumsy loves), pulling for questionable sniffs on a walk, or shoving your snout somewhere it doesn’t belong, (you know who you are). My job is to protect you. We’ll follow every routine, safety note, and request your people give to my people. 📸🎥🤳 Before you growl, yes, there will be photoshoots. Daily. Possibly hourly. To show off your gorgeous star power to your humans each day. Making them feel SO guilty and miss you SO much. The perfect revenge payback plan for them leaving you. You’re welcome. 🛎️ Positive reinforcement and gentle, loving redirection are the Hotel’s official policies. No chocolate poison, no dog-forbidden snacks lying around, and absolutely no mean yelling. Ever. You, however, are free to yell at me anytime. Just howl if you need something. You’re the boss, boss. 💆♂️🧖♀️🧖💆♀️ I know trust and bonding take time. Waiting on you paw and paw requires labor and effort to your liking. I’m happy to patiently respect your space and pace. No pushing you outside your comfort zone. (Unless you’re sitting on my side of the couch). Sometimes a good sniff around the palace is all you need to assess for safety. Sometimes it takes a little (or a lot) more. No judgment here. You are fully accepted.💖 🚫 It can be nerve-wracking for your people to leave you with someone new. That’s why my #1 priority is making sure you feel - and ARE - safe. And that your humans do too. No risky hazards or potentially suspicious items allowed. This is outlined clearly in the contract paws - sorry, clause. Section C for Canines.📜 📱 And don’t worry, we don’t use social media here (mainly because the Wi-Fi’s bad… blew the budget on luxury blankets from Home Goods instead). Your privacy and your people’s peace of mind are non-negotiable. This is a top-tier, celeb level confidentiality zone. (Wi-Fi is fine jk)

A typical day
🥏 Whether you’re on business or vacation, our concierge will present you with your daily itinerary. It will be a cozy, custom designed mix of play, movement, exercise, rest, mealtimes, and fresh air, based entirely on what you love. ⛅️ If approved by your people, we might start the morning with a bathroom break and a snuggle while I have my coffee and have the chef serve your breakfast and water bowls. Some prefer kibble crunch cereal, canned deliciousness, and others prefer organic farmers market. Then we can ease into light play or a walk to the patio or park for nearby green space so you can mentally prep for your busy day. ☀️ During the daytime, I take frequent breaks from my day job to provide you with snuggles, playtime, hydration, movement, sunlight, and walks. Whether you prefer games, catch, toys, tug-of-war, cozy comfy naps (with my proud array of blanket choices - if I may say so myself 😏…can you guess my sign yet? ♋️😅), sunbathing, or quiet companionship, I match your energy, observe your signals, and follow your team’s recommendations. No rushing, no busyness, no overstimulation, just relaxation and happy vibes. You will have my full attention and availability! 🌅 During my evening break at the plaza, I eat my dinner at a tall kitchen table, so I apologize in advance if the height keeps you from being able to reach up and steal people food! 🍽️ Our staff is working on this. 🌚 For evenings after your specially, lovingly prepared doggie dinner, we provide coziness, quiet time, gentle affection, last-call bathroom breaks, or one more quick walk! If your team is away on a trip, I can have my people reach out to your people to set up a quick meeting where we can discuss overnight specifics that will make bedtime feel safe, settling, and stress-free. 📚 Bedtime stories included… just kidding, I’m not that weird. 👩✈️ Please enjoy your stay at Hotel de la Doggie Den! We hope it’s satisfactory. 🫡

Pet care experience
👩✈️ Hi dogs! Welcome to Hotel de la Doggie Den! As a mental health professional by day, and your personal butler during your stay, I offer a calm, patient, and emotionally attuned space for you while your people are away. Especially comforting for those of you who are shy, anxious, sensitive, or just need a little extra love. I usually only take 1 to 3 guests at a time so you’ll receive full individualized care. 🦮 I’ve cared for your kind across all ages, sizes, abilities, temperaments, and needs. Independent loners to clingy velcro types, sassy side-eye queens to pure, innocent angels. I’ve had couch potatoes to high-energy health freaks (whatever); to war-scarred survivors all the way to soft Gen Z pups with big feelings. Our staff is trained to care for seniors, millennials, and everyone in between. Impressed yet? 🐩 By the time you leave here, it’s expected that you act like a full-blown diva after your spa treatments. Trust me…your parents will love it. We’re currently running a special on belly rubs and ear scratches. And between us? If you asked around the neighborhood, I think you’d smell (I mean, hear) some pretty solid reviews about my services. 🐕🦺 I work from home full-time, so you’ll receive all-day attention, play, structure, and gentle affection in your vacation package bundle. It can be scary to trust someone new, for both you and your humans. That’s why we lead with friendly presence, positive tones that you can comprehend, and plenty of praise and reassurance. No one feels like a stranger here. We’re a community at Hotel de la Doggie Den, and every guest gets pet-star treatment. ⭐️ 🐕📱📞 Especially for first-timers, communication will be consistent, open, and warm, to build a supportive bond with pets and parents.

Another perfect stay with Carly! My dog adores her and so do I! Thank you, Carly ❤️
Carly was amazing and accommodating and patient! We will be so happy to use her again!
Carly was a fantastic rover. She sent photos, was easy to communicate with and took great care of my dog over the holidays .
Carly was so great with Rayna! Constantly sending updates and pictures. I felt at ease being on the other side of the world and having my dog looked after by Carly :)
