Do you have a dog that is high maintenance and you’re fearful that another person doesn’t have the experience to take care of him/her? Is your dog extremely dog aggressive and you’re having a hard time finding a place to board your dog that doesn’t cost an arm and a leg? Is your dog not neutered or spayed and are you running into places refusing to accept your dog? Do you choose to minimally vaccinate your dog and places refuse to accept your dog? I have been in your shoes for all of the above scenarios! For years, I could not find someone to watch my dog aggressive dog, nor could I find someone to watch my unneutered dog. No commercial places would accept them. I was terrified to entrust a stranger to watch them—my dogs are large and strong and I feared they might get injured. I realized there were others in the same boat as me, so I started Floof Shack as an alternative for dogs that may have a hard time finding boarding elsewhere. My experience extends beyond my personal dogs. I’m an approved foster with Lucky Mutts Rescue and have fostered and boarded a variety of dogs. As such, I have experience with a wide range of dogs and behavioral issues. I have done everything from whelping and raising a litter from scratch to tending to senior dogs to dogs recovering from major surgeries with mobility issues. I have worked with many sizes and breeds. We have no breed discrimination in this house! My husband and I live in a large, single family home with a fully fenced large backyard. It is an excellent place for dogs to run and get lots of exercise! We have spent years working with dogs who may not get along with other dogs or cats, so we have specially designed our house to keep everyone completely separate if necessary. We do crate everyone at night and when we can’t supervise in order to ensure everyone’s safety. We happily provide multiple picture and text updates throughout your dog’s stay! We want you to feel at ease knowing your dog is safe and having tons of fun. About us! My husband works from home full time, and I work full time in Middleton. We are generally pretty flexible on pick up and drop off times so just drop us a line to discuss what accommodations you require. We have no children. Our dogs are often on adventures traveling all over the US as they compete in sports! We miss them when they are out competing so we are happy to welcome other dogs into our home. We work hard to provide a safe environment for your pet. We are a registered LLC and we have pet boarding insurance for our business. We treat our dogs seasonally for heartworm and fleas/ticks, and we deworm our dogs monthly. Our dogs are up to date on their core vaccinations. Bleach is our best friend! That being said, we cannot be held responsible for any contagious or zoonotic illnesses that your pet could possibly acquire. You are also responsible for any damage that your pet may cause to property or people. By booking with us, you consent to these terms. We understand that pets can be very stressed being away from home; we strive to make them comfortable and be very communicative with you in order to prevent any situations from occurring. Please be open with us about your pet’s needs as it is essential to everyone’s safety. I’m committed to force-free methods and we ascribe to the Pet Professional’s Guild stance of no pain, no force, and no fear. We ask that you do not bring your dog to our home in a pinch/prong collar, choke collar, or electronic/shock collar. These methods will not be used while your dog is in our care. If this is a requirement, please seek boarding elsewhere. Please note that in order to protect the health and safety of the animals in our care, we do not permit “tours” of our home. We are not currently conducting meet and greets due to health and safety concerns. We are happy to provide pictures and references if requested. We thank you for respecting our home and those who dwell in it. Contact me to discuss your concerns of your persnickety pooch. I believe you will be assured and confident that Floof Shack is the absolute best care available for your furry family member. Please feel welcome to contact us with any concerns or questions not addressed in our main bio! We are here to make you and your pet feel comfortable.
