Where Dogs Feel Like Family

I’ve always had animals in my life. I worked on horse farms, pet-sit for my neighbors and friends, and have dabbled with fostering cats and dogs for local rescues. Dogs have a special place in my heart. I’ve owned Shelties, Labs, Golden Retrievers, and rescued Heinz 57 mixes over the years. 😝 I have experience with dogs of all ages as well. I am able to give medicine if needed.

Emmelyn is very good with animals. She’s watched my pets a few times and they are always fed and played with. She’s had and has dogs and cats of her own and they are always loved and treated like important members of her family. Your babies will be in good hands with Emmelyn big or small and will be loved like her own.

Safety, trust & environment

I offer in-home boarding with a family environment. The dogs are part of my daily life. I allow them to be on furniture and sleep in the bed. I want your fur-baby to feel like part of my family while you are away. I have an extra large fenced-in yard for playing and potty breaks. I have a two-year old mix who gets along well with other non-aggressive dogs and loves to play, as well as be a couch potato during naps. I have two children(4 and 9), that will also be at home at the time your pup is visiting. I also have multiple sets of stairs in my home--If your dog struggles with stairs, has arthritis, or knee/hip issues, I would not recommend my services.

Pets

A typical day

A typical day is spending time both inside and outside. In the summer, it gets hot in the afternoon so I try to enjoy the outdoors in the cooler parts of the day. I bring them outside for a good playtime in the morning and early evenings. Naps can consist of sunbathing on the screened porch or on the couch. Feedings occur in the morning and/or evening depending on what your pup needs.

Let me know if your dog has any special needs or specific behaviors to watch for. I will require a meet and greet with my dog to ensure they will get along. I do prefer dogs that get along with kids since I have two that are in my home. Also, I do require a screenshot of your pup’s vaccination record prior to drop-off.
