Pet care experience
Hello I own “ Claudia’s Dogs Doggie Daycare & Boarding” I have been mainly working away from Rover.com since I have a steady clientele from Google. Just wanted to explain why I have a big gap on Rover.com. I’m looking to meet & help more clients since I now have more availability to welcome new clients for overnight boarding. We have a decent size home ,and a back yard that’s fenced. I have 5 kiddos that love helping me take care of the dogs that come over to stay with us. If you like to see more reviews that’s more recent you can find me on Google “Claudia’s dogs doggie daycare & boarding” I’m not offering boarding services to puppies under 1yr old at this time I’m sorry for the inconvenience. I do require them to be over 1yr old all dogs that come needs to verify their vaccine records, ****I require **** • distemper • bordetella • rabies • fecal to include Giardia and coccidia within one year showing negative for all parasites.• heartworm test done within a year showing negative results • On flea & heartworm prevention monthly all year long. All of that would need to be confirmed before I can complete any reservations. I do keep all dogs separated unless they are siblings for safety reasons because it’s a home business. I have gates set up all downstairs so that’s how I’m able to keep all the dogs separated & I do rotations throughout the day. I do crate in the afternoon when kids are taking a nap & night time. Those are the time frames they will be in the crate. I provide all the crates, bowls, toys, treats. You will just need to bring enough food for the stay bed or blanket. I send pic & video & txt messages up dates throughout their stay with me. About this sitter: I got certified as a veterinary assistant 10 years ago. I love animals and this is an extra fun & loving job I love to do! I love spending time with my family and the pups in our care:) Why I love dog sitting Oh wow since I've been a little girl I always wanted a dog but my parents didnt want to have one. I used to read all the dog books & also write notes so I would be ready for when I got a puppy . Meet my pets I have 2 sweet French mastiff & 1 American bully they are absolutely amazing with all the dogs that come to our house. They are big babies! About my yard Backyard is fenced with 6ft tall wood fence. They will have lots of fun like the rest of the dogs I have taken care of in the past!! My experience administering medication Yes, if shown how I need to give the medication.
Reviews
Hello, Claudia does such an amazing job caring for my English Bulldog, Mike. I appreciate her tender love and care for a member of my family. Mike always seems so happy to go to her house and be cared for by her. Thank you so much for everything you do. ❤️
My puppy, Theo, had such a great time at Claudia's house with her kids and dog, Max. Claudia has a lovely home and enormous back yard. She took wonderful care of Theo...sent us photos of him, gave him love and attention, and even cleaned him up after a rainy muddy day. We can't thank her enough for setting our minds at ease while we were away. We will most definitely send Theo her way next time we are out of town.
Claudia Is fabulous, professional, and caring. She sent us email updates and photos while we were away, which were greatly appreciated and comforting. I'm sure Stella enjoyed running around in the big backyard and playing with Claudia's dogs. We will definitely use her in the future and highly recommend her to anyone.

A typical day
Here's where we'll take our walks Will I normally don't walk them because I have a decent backyard for them to go potty. If I need to walk any of the dogs they go in front of the house. Your dog's sleeping arrangement Afternoon for nap time thy will be in a crate for 1hr & night time from 6pm till potty time before bed then back to sleep in crate at 10-11pm. Other than that they are out & about throughout the day crate free. Time I'll spend with your dog Im at stay at home mom so during the day from 8-9am till 6 pm they are getting a lot of attention.

I’m a full time mom of 5 kiddos & a military wife. I love to stay busy & I enjoy helping people that needs someone to take care of their fur baby. I have the time to give quality care, love & all the attention your baby needs while they are in my care. They will definitely be happier here than a actual boarding facility
