Welcome to Camp Half Hound!

Pet care experience

I've been caring for animals of all types ever since I learned how to ask my parents to let me keep them in the house! I'm no stranger to dogs, cats and even multitudes of pocket pets and farm animals. Nothing's too big or little for me! I also have experience in light grooming, administering medicine, as well as a variety of different types of diets, so your pet will be tended to with the utmost care. I value personalized care for each individual critter, so your pet will be attended to with their personal needs as our top priority. Being away from home can be a stressful time, so making sure they are tended to in the way they specifically need is very important for me.

Christina was very professional for our first doggy daycare visit. Glad we found her!

Christina is skilled and patient with my frisky, wild child grandpup. I feel very confident leaving my Buddy with her for the day!

Buddy couldn’t stop raving about his day, lol!! I swear I see a smile 😊. Christina was above and beyond with her communication and reassurance on Buddy’s first day. We can’t wait for our next day care day!!

Safety, trust & environment

When it comes to dogs, I have experience with breeds of all types, and can not only help keep your pup's training routine in check, but can offer some insight as well in any problem areas and work to make sure we all have a fun time! Our top priority is to ensure everyone who stays with us has a safe, fun, and happy stay, and we have designed a kennel-home hybrid atmosphere to have the best fit for your dog while they stay with us. For our boarders & daycare pups, we have personalized play groups to make sure everyone gets along and is having a great time! We do utilize kennels for sleeping and feeding arrangements for the majority of our guests, but we do have kennel-free options for guests who are respectful of their environment.

Information Christina P. would like to know about your pet

I do ask that dogs that come to me do not have any issues being in the same room as another dog. I have three dogs who can be kept separate through the use of kennels and private spaces, but we are not able to cater to dog-reactive pups at this time. My dogs do love new visitors, but we like to make sure everyone is having as much fun and is as comfortable as possible! We do utilize kennels for feeding and sleeping arrangements, so we do ask that all visitors are able to be crated during those, but we are very willing to work with respectful pups should they not be able to be kenneled! DAYCARE: We currently have dedicated daycare groups sorted, and while we will try to work with you on the days you need, please be aware that we may ask you bring your dog on the most appropriate day for their play style and social needs! Currently we have a group dedicated to mostly larger male dogs on Mondays and Wednesdays, a small dog group on Tuesdays and Thursdays, and an all female group for Fridays!

A typical day

We have just recently relocated to Monmouth, and have a large fenced yard as well as an indoor play area for our pups and visitors to play in. We also are big into enrichment toys, one on one training, and play sessions! I very much believe it is important to cater to a dog's individual enrichment style, and we spend quite a bit of time getting to know your dog and their needs.
