Pet care experience

Biiiiig stretch!

Moved to a big house and that has a huge fenced in yard in Norway, Iowa 15 min west of Cedar Rapids! I’ve raised and trained a shelter dog when I was 10 yrs old. I then got my dog, Odie, and raised him starting at 4 months while in college. He’s very well mannered and calm. My golden, Bowser, is still in his “puppy” stage but also well mannered. I love dogs and cats and love playing with them. I respect their personalities and make sure they’re always happy!

Lots of photos and updates! Easy to communicate with. Bean had a little cut during care and she cared for it and wrapped his paw up! Immediately communicated that with me as well which is always appreciated. Bean always comes back super tired!

Doggy Day Care • Jun 22, 2023

Emily was super great with my pup! She took him early in the morning and she & her dogs wore out mine! I have never seen my 9 month old dog so tired and worn out. She took lots of pictures and replied quickly throughout the days!

Schedule

I currently work from home and I have occasional meetings but I am constantly playing with my dogs and checking on them. I love having my door open to our fenced in backyard so they can freely run in and out. My dogs love water activities that keep them busy. We also love bubbles! I walk my dogs twice or 3 times a day depending on their and mine activity level. **Doggy day care rate is for standard 8hours. Additional hours after 8 will be $5 each hour. Thank you!

Safety, trust & environment

I have a fenced in yard and two very friendly active dogs that we love to play. I have kennels for them if your dog prefers to be alone. I can also walk them around my block with large side walks.

Pets

A typical day

I love to play with dogs with the variety of toys I have a available! My pups will run laps around the yard with your pet! They play tug of war with toys with each other and wrestle all day! I send pics almost hourly! **Doggy day care rate is for standard 8hours. Additional hours after 8 will be $5 each hour. Thank you!

Please tell me a little bit about your dog and their favorites! Do they like water? We have a “tub” outside I like to fill with water for them to play in and a sprinkler. May I rinse them off if they get muddy? Can they have peanut butter? :)
