Safety, trust & environment
To ensure a safe and successful stay, I require complete and accurate information about your pet’s temperament, habits, and behaviors prior to booking. Proper screening allows me to prepare appropriately and maintain a calm, structured environment for all pets in my care. Dogs or cats displaying any form of aggression are not a fit for my home. If behaviors such as indoor accidents, marking, destructive chewing, excessive barking, or other high-maintenance needs are not disclosed in advance, pricing may be adjusted to reflect the additional level of supervision and care required. Pricing reflects level of care, behavior, and distance. Final rates are confirmed prior to booking.

Information Heather A. would like to know about your pet
Because this is a structured family home with children, dogs staying in my home must be well-mannered and comfortable in a family environment. Dogs must: • Be comfortable around children • Be fully house-trained (no indoor marking) • Be non-destructive (no chewing household items) • Be able to settle indoors without constant zooming or chaotic behavior • Not bark excessively throughout the day Energy level and temperament matter more than size. Calm larger dogs are welcome, while extremely high-energy or unstructured behavior may not be the right fit. Dogs displaying aggression are not a fit. Providing detailed and honest information helps ensure a safe and successful stay for everyone. My goal is always a stress-free, positive experience for both your dog and my family.
A typical day
Boarded pups stay in a structured family home environment with children and normal household activity. Dogs in my care should be comfortable around kids and typical home noise. Throughout the day, pups receive regular potty breaks and supervised time indoors. While this is not a high-energy play setting, dogs are given consistent attention and interaction within a calm, structured routine. My home is best suited for well-mannered, low to moderate energy dogs who are comfortable settling indoors between outings.
