We have put our fur babies into the care of others many times, and strive for the excellent level of care that we had always wanted. We limit the amount of dogs we accept to just 1 (or a special for 2 from the same household), which keeps the noise level below many places where dogs board or do daycare. We work from home, so dogs get a high level of attention and unlimited access to our fenced back yard. We have a 1.5 acre lot with forest behind us. You will get a daily text or picture, and are welcome to call and check in at any time. We have two dogs of our own, and they are accustomed to doggie daycare and dog park, so they are social and enjoy playing. We have a long hall and ranch style setup that encourages some running inside the home when it's playtime. Our 1 boy is at school during the day, but is good with dogs when home - not overwhelming or in their face, but will give them a pet or throw a ball here and there.
