Hello, I’m Codi! I’ve owned dogs (and lots of other little creatures) ever since I was a kid, a cocker spaniel and two spazzy boxers. My grandpa worked at the state fair when I was young and I would go with him to work just to hang out with the animals. I would still do the same thing to this day if could! Instead my husband and I have started our own zoo at our home. We have our big Dane/mastiff pup Harlowe, our cuddly rescue mystery mutt Honey, and two little talking parrots. I freelance from home (art) and spend my days with birds on my shoulders and two dogs sitting on my lap. Please send your dog over to sit on my lap too, apparently it’s all the rage! With my flexible schedule I am able to make many runs to the park or walks around our quiet neighborhood. When we are at home the dogs are free to come and go through the giant dog door, they love to wrestle or keep watch outside and snooze on the couch. We have this amazingly huge and fully fenced park near our home where we take our dogs to romp around before bed every night. Our Dane mix Harlowe loves dogs but is dominant so we would need to have a meet and greet before planning anything. She is a great leader and very maternal to other dogs, but takes her role as the leader pretty seriously. If your dog is also dominant or territorial we might not be the best fit. I take safety and happiness of all the pups who stay with us with the utmost importance which is why I require a meet and greet before your pup’s stay. If we are a good fit, our dogs will surely wear your dog out playing! We treat animals like humans over here, and they have free reign over the furniture and bed. My husband and I have learned to sleep in the strangest pretzel shapes, and it’s worth it. Side note- I’m currently pregnant so I’ve slowed down a bit these last few months. I spend more time at home and take the dogs out at least once a day to run at the park. I have also been helping my grandpa with Alzheimer’s part time a couple days a week. When I am at his home my husband is usually home with the dogs working in his office. Please let me know if you have any specific instructions for your dog and we can discuss options! Can your pup be left alone and for how long? Do they have any triggers or behavioral issues? Let me know if you have any questions or things I left out on my profile you’d like to know, I’d be happy to chat!
