Big Yard, Big Heart

Pet care experience

Here to help with your pups getting their playtime and socialization while you're away. PLEASE READ: Unfortunately I cannot take any new dogs over 25lbs due to space issues. There is a large gated and secured yard with turf, plenty of room for playtime as well as comfy areas for the ones that like to just relax and be around the hoomans. I specialize in small dogs and your precious pooch(es) will be staying in a cage free environment with daily playtime. The only requirement I have is that your precious pooch be up to date on shots, on flea control and have a great personality as they would be staying with my own pups as well as other guest pups. Unfortunately I also cannot take any dogs with excessive barking behavior as it will set off a chain reaction with the other dogs and this is a residential area. I have a 25lb size limit, while I do have some dogs that are larger that book, I can only take on new clients under that size limit. I pamper my pooches and will do the same for yours. We love dogs! Because I do daycare throughout the week and have limited spots, for overnight boarding, pickups after 24 hours from the time of drop off will incur a half day daycare rate of $30. I.E, if you drop off at 10 am and pickup after 10am the last day of the stay, the half daycare rate will apply. Also, for either daycare or overnight boarding, last pickup is 8pm if you have special circumstances please let me know but generally since it's a residential area and the dogs bark when anyone come in/out - it disrupts the neighbors so we can chat about different arrangements. Meet and Greets are required. We also require proof of all vaccinations for Rabies, Distemper, Parvo, Bordetalla and highly recommend Canine Flu and Leptospirosis to existing/new clients. If you have a nervous, anxious and/or shy pup - that’s ok but I may ask for at least 1 test daycare and/or 1 test overnight before you board to acclimate your pup to a new environment. Please let me know if you have any questions and look forward to meeting you and your pups!

Caroline has cared for our dog over several years, including stays of up to 3 weeks. Our dog absolutely loves it there , and comes home happy every time. She has a great outdoor space for dogs to play and sends periodic updates which are super helpful. Highly recommend

I can tell by the videos that Pan had an amazing time, as always! Thanks, Caroline -- he's a happier dog since he started hanging out with you & your pack :-)

Information Caroline H. would like to know about your pet

Dogs must be friendly and gentle with the smaller pups, there's a 25 lb limit and while some barking is normal, unfortunately I can't accept dogs with excessive barking since my neighbors have small babies that nap during the day. I would like to know if your pup has any anxiety, triggers, reactivity or special needs.

A typical day

Fetch Fetch Fetch for the active pups and mellow outside time around the big yard for the senior, low key pups. Active dogs are not playing with the smaller pups when the energy level is high, I run them around and later in the afternoon and all sizes mingle when the higher energy dogs are tired.
