A Wagging Tail Is All That Matters!

Pet care experience

Hello and welcome! My name is Iru. My husband, Eric and I started Mini’s Place with our toy poodle, Mini, in September 2017. If you are looking to find a calm and relaxing place where your dog can rest, have fun and be showered with love, care and attention, this is the place you're looking for. All dogs who stay with us must be housebroken (including no marking habits) and up to date with vaccinations. Please bring your vaccination records during a meet and greet {if you requested one} and at drop-off for overnight stays so that we have it on file throughout the duration of your pet's stay. Please also let us know if your dogs are on any kind of flea/tick prevention. Some things about Mini’s Place: 1. There is no need to bring your own bowls, beds, wipes, poop bags, treats, blankets and toys (unless you want to) -- we provide all of that here to make your drop off and pick up easier. All you really need to bring is dog food, leash, collar, medications & supplements (if applicable) and vaccination records. 2. All our guest dogs get filtered water and water bowls are washed every morning and refilled three times a day (or more if needed). Food bowls are washed after every meal. 3. Clients will receive a detailed update every evening along with pictures. 4. We only take 1 dog at a time. We strive to have a calm and relaxing environment and try to create packs who will all be comfortable with each other. 5. All guest dogs are welcome on our bed and sofa! We also wipe dog paws and pee and potty areas after they do their business. 6. We're big on cleaning here! We want to ensure that all guest dogs have a clean place to stay. We do big sweeps {including washing dog toys, dog beds, blankets} before and after long stays and quick pick ups during stays as well. Thank you for your interest! We look forward to hearing from you!

Iru is such a caring and loving person. It was my first time boarding my dog, so I was very nervous and worried. I was looking for a place where my dog would get lots of play and attention, and Iru was the perfect sitter for my dog. Her home is super clean and organized, and her dog Mini is adorable. Iru sent me pictures everyday during the stay and provided updates on how my dog was doing. I’d recommend her to anyone and would definitely use her service again in the future.

The best! Iru is so sweet and the best with dogs. She sent me pictures of my dog everyday while I was away. She really has taking amazing care of her and really love animals. Her place is ideal and very comforting. I couldn’t be happier. The only thing I regret is not finding her sooner. We’ll be back❤️

Iru was and is simply AMAZING in takin care of our little Santana( Little Girl). We cannot say enough good things, she email us everyday( we were overseas and only connected at night, no phone). She made us feel so confident and happy our little one was in the best hands and loved and taken care of while we were away. Iru took her out often, played with her, treated her like she was part of their family. She made herself our friend by her total responsibiity for Santana, and we are in contact now and future. She will be who we rely on for the next times and recommend her totally!! The best!! Bea and Andy Essex Fells NJ

Our pups had a great time at Iru's! They were well cared for and loved. We got updated daily with pictures and videos. I definitely recommend Iru!

Information Iru C. would like to know about your pet

We don't have any breed preference, all dogs under 25lb are welcome! Before committing to a sitting agreement, it would be helpful to know if your dog has any allergies, fears, or things that trigger an unexpected behavior. Is there a certain way you would like me to conduct walks? Does your dog only respond to certain commands? Any Medical needs? As always, we are happy to follow any and all instructions :-)

A typical day

Most of our guest dogs like to rest, cuddle and nap during their stay and we also cater to dogs who are quiet and mellow. Some dogs do like to play with dogs and so we build in time to play with them and play fetch too. We also go on two walks and a short bathroom break in the middle of the day.
