Dog Loving Family!

I've been a dog owner in the last 14 years. My love for dogs have encouraged family and friends to make dogs a part of their family. I am a mom of 2 kids and 2 furry babies. Because I have two small dogs at home and 2 children, I prefer to watch dogs up to 25 lbs only. I may consider dogs over 25 lbs based on temperament, breed and age. I would typically do a meet and greet before taking your dog to ensure that your dogs will get along with my dogs and children. My goal is to keep my furry guests comfortable, happy and healthy. I am looking forward to taking care of your furry babies like our own!

They sent daily updates and photos, even let our Tuck stay an extra night last minute when our flight was delayed. Made sure to communicate with us throughout the days we left, will definitely be using them again!

I am fully satisfied with Donessa and Dylan’s services. They take a good care of our furry baby Juni. They followed Juni’s food and medicine schedule, took her for walk everyday and sent her pictures everyday. Most interesting part is Dog Report card. I love that. Willing to take their services again in next time.

Schedule

I work for a school district so I’m off every weekend and during school holidays/ breaks. My husband works from home during the weekdays and there will always be someone at home with the dogs.

Safety, trust & environment

I have a fenced yard where my own dogs play. I am able to give dogs a potty break every 2 hours. We have mostly tile/ wood floors to allow dogs to be in most parts of the house. I keep the dogs sleeping areas separate based on size. I keep dogs from the same family in the same sleeping area. I follow feeding schedules as specified in the care requirements. I keep the dogs separate during meals and feed them food sent from home. I can also share my dogs’ food and treats to my guests if parents are ok with it and there are no food sensitivities.

Pets

A typical day

I take the dogs out for walks around the neighborhood and play with them in the backyard when the weather permits. We have a dog park near our house and I take the dogs there to socialize with other dogs. After their “active” time, I allow them to take a break through naps or just relaxing inside the house. I also provide treats/snacks mid day after they wake up from their nap.

Let me know if your dog has special needs or medications so I can figure out if I am able to accommodate and meet those needs. I would need a copy of shot records beforehand. I cannot take aggressive dogs. My main consideration before taking your dog is if they can get along with my own dogs and can handle my children playing with them a lot. I can only take a maximum of 2 puppies under 1 year old at the same time to ensure that all the dogs I board gets equal amount of attention, care and love.
