Information Charles L. would like to know about your pet

New clients need to schedule a meet and greet to be sure we have a good fit. Your pet needs an ID tag with a telephone number. Your pet’s usual schedule? How do they like their food? Wet or dry? Snacks, bones? Their energy level ? (high or low is fine...) Are shots up to date ? Are there separation issues or other personality traits I should be aware of ? Does your dog show aggressive behavior towards humans or other dogs ?

A typical day

We will usually go on two walks each day plus play in the yard to insure well-exercised dogs and humans. Balls and toys provided for playtime in the yard or house...

Pet care experience

Full-time attention and affection is what I provide, ensuring that owners can relax when their dogs are away from home and in my care. Your dog will not be left alone during their stay with us. My wife Cadence and I both grew up with dogs and during the last 18 years, have always had one or two in our home. With a lot of hospitality experience, I understand that our guests' (two or four-legged...) comfort and enjoyment is key to making friends that want to come back. I love hiking or walking outside with dogs as companions. Close to our house are parks and the East Mountains foothills to explore. Visits and overnight stays can be adjusted to fit your pet's energy and interest. I'll provide continual attention and support. Our dog Shiso (a 65 lb mix, 9 years old), will also be available to meet, greet and play with all visiting dogs. I can administer oral medications and have experience with older, as well as younger dogs. Daycare drop-offs are after 7:00 AM and pick-up by 7:00 PM.

Thank you so much for spending the day with Sophie. With the loss of her best dog bud Charlie, she was not herself and seemed lost. A day with you and Shiso is just what she needed. We appreciate you and the care and kindness you have always given to our pups. 🐾
