Happy Dog Days at the Daut House!

PLEASE NOTE! I REQUIRE A MEET & GREET PRIOR TO ACCEPTING ANY BOOKING. THE SPANIELS PICTURED ARE MY CAVALIERS, GUS & RILEY. I have had dogs since I was 10 years old. A few mixed breeds but mostly Dachshunds and Cavalier King Charles Spaniels. I have never been without a dog for any length of time. I can walk, talk, play, feed, give meds, and love 'em all! I am home full time. I walk my two Cavaliers, Gus and Riley, every day. We also enjoy sitting in the yard In the early mornings and later in the evenings weather permitting. My dogs love being outside ! I have a fully fenced yard and a large dog run as well. My home is smoke free, hardwood flooring ( no rugs to worry about messing up) House is air conditioned in the hot weather and warm in the cold weather!

Eileen was great! Our dog needs eyedrops and Eileen was very diligent following the schedule. It was obvious that our dog was in great hands while we were away. 100% recommended! We will definitely book another stay with Eileen!

Thea absolutely adores Eileen. She is the kindest dog caretaker, who lets Thea sleep in her bed! Eileen even cooks ground turkey and veggies for her doggies, just such a wonderful, kind, loving touch. Thank you Eileen, I feel like you are part of our family!

Pets

A typical day

I enjoy walking my dogs every day..........I need it as much as they do! If your dog enjoys a daily walk......they are welcome to come along. Time will also be spent playing in the yard while I sit on the swing, listen to some music and watch their antics. If playing fetch or just lounging in the grass enjoying the weather is what they prefer...........that is ok too!

0 to 15 lbs
16 to 40 lbs
Dogs over 1 year old
Spayed and neutered dogs only
No females in heat
Eileen can host up to 3 pets per night
PLEASE NOTE! WHEN BOOKING A STAY THE HOURS YOU REFLECT FOR DROP OFF AND PICK UP ARE TO BE CONSIDERED APPOINTMENTS......LIKE ANY OTHER SERVICE. THIS CANNOT BE COME AND GO AS YOU PLEASE. IT IS IMPORTANT THAT YOUR DOG IS PEOPLE AND DOG FRIENDLY. Your dog should be easy to handle. If daily walks are requested , properly etiquette on a leash is important. If your dog loves to chase a ball, or rough house with a toy, that will be accommodated! PRIOR TO BOOKING A STAY: I REQUIRE A MEET & GREET PRIOR TO YOUR DOG'S FIRST STAY. Meet and Greets are located at my home so you can see where your dog will be spending time, assure that they will get along with my two dogs, they can get familiar with all of the new smells, and both of you can feel more comfortable. My goal is to maintain long term relationships and nurture the trust that comes from repeat stays. MY APPROACH: My goal is to let guests run around and play as much as possible while ensuring they have a safe stay. Depending on the time of year/weather, guests spend as much time playing outside as they want. . OTHER GUEST DOGS: I sometimes host multiple guest dogs at a time. I have a maximum of 3 but that is flexible for longer stays as flights get delayed, family emergencies arise, and it completely depends on the specific time of the day (one guest may arrive in the morning and another may be headed home in the evening). I do not accept dogs that are not friendly to Gus and Riley during Meet and Greets or show any aggression to me. I also require that your dog is up to date on all vaccinations for their age. THINGS TO BRING: Please bring your dog’s food, bowls, toys, any treats you would like them to have and if you would like, something that smells like home (t-shirt or a small blanket). Whatever you feel will make them the most comfortable. WHAT TO EXPECT DURING YOUR DOG’S STAY: -They will be happy, healthy, and pretty worn out -Photos are sent every other day via Rover (Rover will forward to you via email or you can have the app on your phone). If you are traveling to a place that this will be hard for you to see, I am happy to send them to a secondary place as well-- another cell number, email, etc. -All reservations are booked via the website and I handle reservations on a first come first serve basis. RESERVATIONS, AVAILABLE HOURS, & DROP-OFF / PICK-UP SCHEDULING: Once a reservation is made, I will always ask that you LET ME KNOW IN ADVANCE THE DROP-OFF AND PICK UP TIMES AS SOON AS IT CAN BE ASCERTAINED. I am usually pretty flexible during the day if I know in advance. No worries if your schedule changes or your flight is delayed. You are always welcome to reach out to me regarding availability. For regular customers or smaller dogs, I try to accommodate requests whenever possible. HOLIDAYS: I am not available for drop-off/pickups on the following holidays: Thanksgiving Day, Christmas Eve, and Christmas Day. Drop-off or pick-up would need to occur either the day before or after these days. RATES & DISCOUNTS: If you are NEW to Rover, you can use my Promo Code: EILEED48736 for $20 off. Please feel free to send me a message with any questions or if you would like to schedule a Meet and Greet! Thank you and I am looking forward to meeting you and your dog(s)! I have a form I will fill out when we have our meet and greet , so I can refer back to it. It asks basic things like vaccination history, medications, allergies, favorite games, any fears (storms, fireworks), normal sleeping arrangements, feeding schedule, how they let you know they need to go potty, etc.
Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
