PICK ME, HAPPY TAILS, HAPPY CHERUBS

Pet care experience

I have been caring for CHERUBS, over 30 years, its always a new experience. All are welcomed. I have an unconditional love for our creatures. Any cherub of yours becomes part of our furmily. My husband and I are a team. Your cherub, will never be left alone, we are here for them. I also do drop ins, long term, daycare & house sitting. When you are on vacation it’s petcation for your cherub as well. Playing with new furiends,running, napping, enjoying fresh air, treats & LOTS OF LOVE! Bring your CHERUBS to BCP BARKINGTON for vacation & have a peace of mind. HAPPY TAILS. Please know ALL HOLIDAYS ARE BUSY 4 EVERYONE ! BE SURE YOUR CHERUBS ARE BOOKED EARLY :) For all of you PET CARE is my only business. My passion is what I do. I do it 365 days of the year. Cherubs are my career. Our yard is fenced in no way out although we have had magicians hehe tried to flee. Never made it thru. We are with them always

Our sweet girl had the best time! The backyard is a dog paradise with so much to do. Thank you so much for taking such good care of our little lady. I am so glad to have found you on Rover! Hope she will be invited back!

Maria was amazing with my nervous dog during her first boarding experience. She has a deep love for animals and is very caring.

Information Cruz Maria D. would like to know about your pet

Our rules are very simple. Meet/Greet you & cherub only no children as they can get knocked over by running cherubs. We will all get to know each other. HONESTY IS KEY, when it’s about your pet, it’s important, no surprises at stay. ALL PAWS ON THE TABLE! Your cherubs must be potty trained, no wee pads. Absolutely no AGGRESSION our cherubs deserve a stress free petcation. UNFORTUNATELY, we will no longer take puppies, we have had the experience of puppies needing the proper individual attention that we can’t offer them having so many other cherubs here. We will take daycare female puppies only, males mark everywhere. Please make sure to let me know if your cherub is anxious and has never stayed overnight. For your cherubs stay please bring food, treats, meds, no bowls or toys, and a friend or family members phone number incase it doesn’t work out. IE: A PLAN B ;) it doesn’t happen too much but better safe than sorry. Please read my page for rates. When dropping off please give us 10 MINUTES BEFORE! as we have many cherubs and they need a smooth transition. Pick up time is before 6pm unless previously agreed. Otherwise a late fee will be charged. We are flexible let us know always how we can help. We hope you choose our humble abode for your cherub and can’t wait to see you.

A typical day

MY HOME IS THEIR HOME. I ASK THE CHERUBS, IF I CAN SIT ON THE COUCH ;) I ALSO HAVE AN OPEN DOOR TO THE YARD POLICY. IE; WHEN I'M OUTSIDE WE ALL GO OUTSIDE TO PLAY AND BREATHE IN THE FRESH AIR. NO MATTER WHAT THE WEATHER. IF YOU FEEL YOUR CHERUB IS SMALL, & MIGHT FIT THRU, OR JUMP OVER, OUT FENCE WE WILL USE A LEAD! SAFETY FIRST! YOUR CHERUB WILL NEVER BE UNATTENDED. I PROVIDE COOL CLEAN WATER AT ALL TIMES, BALLS TO PLAY WITH OUTSIDE & TOYS INSIDE. WARMER WEATHER WE HAVE 4 SMALL POOLS, LOTS OF BALL, STICK CHASING. TREATS ARE A MUST, AS LONG AS THIER HUMANS AGREE. FEEDING TIME IS 2x A DAY, UNLESS DIFFERENTLY. SLEEP TIME IS ANYWHERE THEY CHOOSE & EVEN MY BED. THERE WILL ALWAYS BE 1 OF US AT HOME. YOU WILL GET PICTURES/ UPDATES OF YOUR CHERUB DURING THEIR STAY. IF YOU ARE LUCKY I MIGHT LET THEM GO HOME ;)
