Shih-Tzu Haven

Pet care experience

I've just moved to Denver a few months ago and have posted some photos of our new home that I hope your fur baby will feel comfortable in. We are still getting settled in a bit. I haven't boarded any dogs for a few years but because I've recently had to part with my Mikko I want to open my home up again to other Shih Tzus (or hypoallergenic dogs). I love all animals but Shih-Tzu's have a special place in my heart. My Mikko gave me 13 of the best years of my life but he is now resting peacefully. I'm not quite ready to replace him but I would love to help look after your Shih-Tzu(s). They're so cuddly and just the sweetest breed out there. A meet and greet will be required before the day of doggy day care or boarding for all new pets. I have a fenced back yard that they can enjoy at any time of day. My neighborhood has also just put in a new walking path that is perfect for small dogs. I work from home so my schedule is flexible and I will always be able to provide 24/7 love and attention.

Derae was absolutely wonderful! My dog Walter is a bit skittish around others, but she managed to calm both his fears and mine. She went over and above to make sure I was informed and comfortable. I can tell Walter had a great time by all of the pictures and updates. I will certainly be contacting Derae for help in the future! I highly recommend booking with her :)

Information Derae L. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if there are any medical needs or any behavioral traits that I need to be aware of. Does your fur baby get nervous for any particular reason? What can I do to make sure your little one feels safe and at home in my house?

A typical day

With your fur baby my day would start out with lots of cuddles, a potty break and breakfast. My neighborhood just put in a walking path that a small dog would enjoy. My Mikko could only tolerate a ten to fifteen minute walk before he was ready to go back inside so let me know about how long your Shih-Tzu (or hypo dog) likes to be outside for. After play time and/or a little walk I'd make your little one comfortable in my work space and cuddle them throughout the day.
