Come Visit - Leave Exhausted!!

Pet care experience

Come and play in our large yard near the forest! Active, fun play in a caring environment is what we offer. We go on walking trails and walk the doggies all around the neighborhood. With parent permission, we share delicious homemade natural doggie treats after the pow wow! There is plenty of wildlife to see around here too. My home is dog-friendly - both inside and out. My dogs play in the yard free form and we use an invisible fence. During your dogs stay, they will be on a leash. I offer daycare as well as overnight stays. I give meds and well as offer play and comfort to each and every dog. Please leave your family member with us! They will leave exhausted...the good kind! I plan events and work from home. So I consider myself a 24 hour operation. When I do have to step out for an event, you will be made aware prior to the booking and my son will be here with our dogs. I have Invisible Fence for my dogs, so your doggie will be on leash while in my care outside. They plan and roam freely inside and are allowed on my furniture.

Ms. Debra is very personable. She was very patient with my VERY timid 1 year old Romayo (it was his 1st time away from me & with a "stranger"). She provided an update that comforted my anxiety. As this is my 1st rescue, she was a wealth of knowledge & provided me with guidance based on her own experience. I am definitely going to use her services again and again. I definitely would recommend her to anyone that needed a sitter!

Debra was amazing. It was my first time using Rover and Debra made it very easy. Penny seemed to have a great time and Debra sent updates daily.

Safety, trust & environment

We play and play here. To the point of your pup will need a nap. But I also know that sometimes pups, like us, want some alone time. So they can lounge on my comfy dog sofa upstairs, on their pillow, or in the crate that the family brings. I prefer to feed in crates, so no fighits occur over food.

Information Debra Kay N. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your dog has any special needs (anxious, medical needs, medications, etc) and cannot have certain types of treats. Please also have your doggie up to date on all vaccines.

A typical day

I have two dogs. I have had them since they were all puppies (I got them at different times). All came from a shelter. When you arrive with your doggie, I would introduce him/her to my dogs, one at a time in 5 minute intervals. The is to not excite my dogs too much (as they like company) and not overwhelm your dog. This has seemed to work so far and has resulted in exhaustive play for all involved. Thereafter, all dogs are free to roam thorough out the house. I have large doggie pillows both upstairs and downstairs. I have a sofa upstairs that my dogs sleep on. We go on long walks on trails and have free play in the back yard, The dogs are contained with an invisible fence so they roam free 6 feet into the forest (I live near a forest and a stream).
