Pet care experience

A calm, playful, and peaceful home

I have always had dogs, and currently have one dog who is my buddy. Kai is the best dog - She is great around all people and dogs and we love it when we have a dog that Kai likes to play with. There is a covered patio with a swamp cooler if they chose hang out on the patio. We have grass and ample room to run around in the yard. The yard is fenced in and completely enclosed. There are a few pieces of agility pieces and if your dog enjoys agility, we will do some agility. There is a doggie door so the dogs have access to the house. If I should leave, I separate the dogs. I Love having the positive energy that nice dogs offer. My intention is to have a happy home to the dogs that stay here. I need to be aware of any and all health issue(s) and then we can assess if my home is a good place for your dog to reside while you are away. That includes periodontal disease. I ask that you be very open and honest with me about the personality and habits of your pet before a meet and greet, which is necessary prior to a dog staying here. My hours are 8 A.M. TO 7 P.M. If you request a drop off/pick up outside those hours, we can discuss it at an additional charge.

Christine was fantastic with our beagle. Due to unforeseen circumstances, she was willing to take care of our dog last minute and went above and beyond to make sure he felt at home. I appreciated the daily updates that gave us reassurance he was in great hands.

Doggy Day Care • Dez. 19, 2023

Christine took good care of my pup while I was gone all day. She is kind and her dog, Kai got along great with my dog. I would definitely ask Christine to care for my dog again, for daycare or overnight boarding.

Christine is a wonderful sitter who clearly loves dog and know how to connect with them. She sent a couple of updates a day, and was able to adapt to our dogs needs and personality easily. We would definitely recommend her!

Schedule

I work from home at a job that is not stressful so having dogs stay here works very well for me. I enjoy the energy that another dog adds to the household.

A typical day

I enjoy agility and teaching tricks to dogs. Often times our fur companions watch Kai and learn from her. It is such fun to see them catch on.

All dogs have to get along well with other dogs and people. Nice dogs only ! Only housebroken dogs please- no chewing on furniture or marking. Is your dog sensitive to noises - thunder/fireworks ? Does your pal have health issues ? If so, I need to know about them. Kai is now 9. A super high energy dog will not work for us and she has mellowed.
