Availability

I’m currently pursuing a bachelors degree from home, so I have the unique ability to spend all my time with your doggie. I work in my office for about 2 hours per day, where your dog will be welcome to hang out with me while I do so. The rest of my day is usually dedicated to taking my own dogs on walks and playing in our yard together.

Safety, trust & environment

I have a 7 foot high vinyl fenced, large yard (half an acre) for your pup to run and play in. I am an online student so your pooch will never be left unattended, even when they’re outdoors exploring in the yard. We have plenty of toys and enrichment activities for your dog to participate in such as a splash pad and doggie pool! They will never be lonely as I have dogs of my own who love to play with others.

Information Christine H. would like to know about your pet

I offer free bathing and nail trims for boarders that stay 3 or more days. Let me know if you’d like to opt in for this service during your booking.

A typical day

Pups staying with me will get at least 2 walks per day. Playtime and socializing in my yard is my favorite thing to do with fur babies! Playing fetch is a great past time to get the energy flowing. Don’t be fooled, there’s lots of lounging together too. Pups will enjoy plenty of toys, treats (approved by owners), and a comfortable space to relax. Regular feeding and, of course, lots of love and attention make for a tail-wagging experience!

Pet care experience

I have experience working in an AHAA accredited veterinary hospital, where I maintained the kennel department. I am experienced in medicating animals, even ones that need injections (like insulin). I was trained on how to follow instructions from owners to specifically care for their animal, along with giving them updates on how their doggie is doing. I also had a lot of experience with senior animals in that position, so I know the extra time, care, and patience they may require. Nothing makes me happier than spending time with animals, especially dogs, they are a passion of mine and always have been.
