Hey there, fellow pet parents! 🐾 * Before booking boarding in our home, we do kindly ask for meet and greet for dogs/puppies so we can get to know each other and your pet/s unless I have met them beforehand during other services * A Little About Me: Hello! I am a social service worker who is currently working from home so your pets will never be alone. Trust and flexibility are key in my approach, especially for pets with special needs. Having cared for over 35 animals, from tiny newborn kittens to senior dogs, I understand the unique bond we share with our animal pals. My wife and I both work from home, so your furry friends will get 24/7 attention and plenty of updates to keep you in the loop. We have 3 lovely cats ( Catbys, Dumpling and Boo), 1 dog named Archie, and 3 fish. All our animals are very friendly, cuddly and caring. We are huge animal lovers and often rescue whenever we possibly can. We are very flexible and often available for all of the holidays so you can count on us for your journeys and trips. Below I have labelled different sections of care for easier scroll through and for you to be able to find sections that fit you.All sorts of animals are welcome here, from cats and dogs to fish, hamsters, rabbits, and even non-venomous snakes. 🐱🐶🐟🐭🐰🐍. For pet parents outside of cats and dogs you can find your section at the very bottom labelled as ' Other Pets' I am so delighted to be able to provide support for all my fellow pet parents out there with all different kids of needs. For this reason my wife and I have chosen to provide 1v1 support for cats and dogs ( multiple pets from one household are welcome). We believe it is very important to give your pets the time and attention they need and we want to make sure we have plenty of it to give them. Please note that we try our best to take care of every animals to the best our of ability and we are happy to update you on their daily activities with pictures/videos and texts ( if extra charges apply for text we can offer these through whatsapp, viber, email or even discord ). Please also note that we expect pet parent to bring everything their pets may need that lasts for their stay. If available these things can including any medications, beds/blankets , crates, food raw/kibble,treats ( including bones which we will strictly monitor ), pee pads, water/food bowls, leashed/collars, if possible/available care instruction needs, cat litter, cats bathroom, and toys. These items significantly help our pets feel connected to their owners and less stressed/anxious during their stay. We want to ensure they feel as at home as possible so they can enjoy their stay and go home happy. *If you are working on training your pet and wish to continue it during their services I am more than happy to discuss your needs, please note that the price of the services would slightly change based on complexity of your training needs but it will always be discussed with you beforehand. We do expect pet parents to provide their own training equipment and treats/toys to keep the price low and affordable * During Pets Stay: Whether your pets are snuggle bugs or prefer a bit of alone time, they'll get personalized care here. Got a shy pup or a kitty who likes their own space? No worries – we've got a whole floor (or if you prefer living room) dedicated to them. And for the little ones like hamsters or rabbits, there's a room just for them, away from any other curious critters. Being a pet parent myself I completely understand having a whole list/excel spreadsheet for your pets so if you do have one please bring it right over and we will follow it to the T to the best of our ability. We do have a freezer are able to accommodate pets who are on a raw or mixed diet and a fridge for any special medications needed to be kept cool. Our dog is crate trained and we welcome other dogs who are crate trained too but no worries if yours is not as they are still welcome, please note you will need to bring your crate with you for them during their stay. Special Needs Pet Parents : Pet parents with special needs pets or even complex needs ( medications, epilepsy, seizures, shyness, special diets such as raw/kibble diet..etc) please reach out and let me know ALL of your needs because we would love nothing more than for your pets to feel safe and comfortable here. I assure you we have plenty of experience with various different needs and this is a judgement free zone. I'm all about creating a cozy, welcoming space for them. Puppies/Kittens Under 1: We want to make the experience as enjoyable as possible for your young pets and this includes making sure we take important precautions and ask important questions. When making your reservation please reach out to us and use the below questions as a guideline for what we are looking for and let us know if they: 1)Have accidents at home 2) Do they have all their vaccines ? 3) Destroy furniture/floorboard at home 4) If they sleep in crate/don't 5) Is this their first time away from home ( any separation anxiety?) 6) Are they aggressive or resource guard ( this is for safety of both mine and your animals) ? Reactive/Aggressive Dogs: We completely understand how it feels to have a reactive or aggressive dog, we do not judge in any way and we strive to provide the best care regardless. Unfortunately, at this time depending on how or what the dog is reactive/aggressive to, we may not be able to offer boarding services in our home. However every other service is still available! This is for the safety of us, our animals and yours as well. We want to ensure that every pet is safe and as comfortable as possible. I promise this is a completely judge free zone and I encourage you to reach out and talk to us about your situation so that we can talk it and discuss possibilities and what their stay/care will look like. All we ask is that you be honest with us, because we will be honest with you in what we can/cannot offer or do. Cats: As you may already tell, we LOVE cats/kittens and they are always welcome in our home. If your cat does not like to be around others, has anxiety or needs to be around someone 24/7, no worries ! We will dedicate an entire living room with a closed door for them to have their own space where I will work all day and they can sleep with us in our room during night. This space will have a large cat bed, a window mounted lounge area where they can look outside and see all the birds, will have a couch for them to lounge on if they prefer and a ton of toys including a scratching post/area.
