Information Heidi A. would like to know about your pet
Does you dog have any allergies? Are they up to date on flea/tick medication and vaccines? Is there anything special you want me to know about your fur baby?
A typical day
Our day depends on what the pack feels like doing. Nice days we usually spend most of our time out in the yard. If it is a pack of older dogs, they usually prefer snuggling on the couch/relaxing inside together. If it is a pack full of puppies they usually spend their time devided between wrestling inside and out. We usually go outside in the yard 5-6 times a day, some days more.

Pet care experience
Hello my name is Heidi. I have owned dogs, cats, and a number of other animals my entire life. I worked in a doggie daycare for just over 3 years, 2 of those years I worked as the assistant manager. Dogs have always been my passion. I currently own a few of my very own fur babies. I also have two beautiful amazing human children! I absolutely love animals and always have. I have 33 acres of land, complete with a man made pond, and woods. I have a fenced back yard in with over 7ft high fencing. In the warm weather I have have plastic kiddie pools for the dogs to play in. I also have a wooden platform that the dogs love sunbathing on. Somedays I have as many as 10-15 dogs per day. For the most part all the dogs play in one pack. Some however, stay separate in the gated off living room, where they can nap on the couch unbothered by the young ones playing. Others who are introverted, and don't enjoy pack life, can have their own space in the dog room.(A large room where most of the crates are kept.) The dog room has a door that leads directly into the yard, for any dogs that doesn't want to associate with other dogs. Please feel free to message me with any questions. I look forward to meeting you and your fur baby or babies! Taking care of you pets is my main priority after my kids. Caring for your fur babies is my full time job. I am usually home a minimum of 20 hours a day. Side notes to know. All dogs are crated, or sectioned off whenever I leave and at night for safety. My main concern is keeping your babies safe. I provide crates for your fur baby, so you don't have to lug your own from home. I also have plenty of stainless steel dogs bowls for your pet to use. The number of dogs I myself own also fluctuates. I have 3 of my own dogs and I have been rescuing, rehabbing, and rehoming on the side. So the number of pets under my care that are mine, changes from time to time.
Reviews

Heidi was great and easy to work with. When we needed to pick up our Donny later than originally planned she accommodated that which was amazing. Our pup is exhausted and happy and we would be happy to use Heidi again in the future!

She was great with our dog will be using her from now one.

Heidi was great with our puppy!

Heidi took great care of my new senior rescue dog, Cal. This was my first time boarding him and I wasn't sure what to expect, but Heidi was attentive to his need for some "alone time" away from the pack of younger dogs to rest and relax. When she noticed his ears were bothering him, she was able to clean them. This was above and beyond what I expected and I really appreciated her willingness to do it to make him more comfortable. He was well-fed and received all of his medications. It is obvious she is a very experienced dog care provider who really treats the dogs as if they were her own. I was very relieved that the stay was a great success and Cal came home a happy dog. Thanks Heidi!
