are an integral part of our family and get treated as such. One of the most stressful things as a dog owner can be ensuring your dog is well cared for while you are away. I am working from home during the week and would be home on weekends to spend time with the pups when booked for boarding. My spouse and I love dogs and are very attentive to them. I have owned and cared for dogs for over 19 years. I have experience: -training and caring for dogs, including formerly working at our local SPCA providing training and walking dogs of all ages and sizes -taking care of special needs dogs, including dogs with heart conditions, epilepsy, blindness, deafness, general old age, and Cushing's disease -giving oral or topical medications -fostering dogs with the Boston Buddies rescue -rehabilitating sick and injured seals and sea lions at a marine mammal care center I have traditionally owned rescued Boston Terriers and now have two spaniels, Addie and Loki. Loki is super friendly and submissive with dogs. Addie is a pandemic puppy and needs a slow introduction to new dogs and people. But after her initial shyness, she loves to run and play. I like to do a meet and greet to ensure everyone gets along before your dog's stay. We allow the dogs to interact and play under a watchful eye and when we are out running errands, we will keep the dogs separate until we know they are okay home along together (e.g. after repeat stays). We have a camera set up so we can see the dogs during the day if we are away. We also have the ability to section off different parts of the house so they can have their space if needed. The dogs have access to the entire house, but I also have a large dog room with dog door access to a large, fenced yard. The fence is very secure, including buried chicken wire along most of the fence to prevent skunks from entering the yard or dogs from digging out. The dogs are allowed on the furniture, and we want them to be as comfortable and relaxed as possible during their stay. Feel free to bring your dog's favorite toy, blanket, bed, etc. if you think it will make him or her more comfortable. But we also have plenty of toys and beds if you want to pack light. Amenities: Large secure fenced yard, with chicken wire reinforcements. 6ft wood fence and plenty of squirrels to chase. -Dog door -Dog room -Dogs can have access to entire house including on furniture -2 dog crates -Stocked toy bin -Cushy dog beds -Treats available, diet permitting -Training reinforcement, as needed
