Dogs of any breed or size are welcome as long as they are a good fit! Before boarding I require a meet and greet to get to know you and your dog. I require records age appropriate vaccines such as DHLPP, Bordatella, and Rabies, and a recent clear fecal that tests for parasites and giardia at least once a year. All dogs should have some sort of flea control. Things I'd love to know about your Pet: Personality (Are they a cuddler, super smart, couch bum) Favorite Owner Approved Treats or owner approved protein Reactivity (Dog-Dog, Human, Leash, Food)* Behavioral Quirks (Triggers, Separation Anxiety, OCD, PTSD) Crate trained or free range when left alone** Health Needs & Medications Food Sensitivities or Allergies Vaccinations (up to date vaccinations please) **I do leave the house for hour long periods for dog-walks so if your dog needs to be crated please let me know.

Daytime: My husband and I have a wonderful, fenced yard for our dog and other dogs to play in. We have filled it with engaging toys to stimulate doggy minds and provide hours of fun. We have tug toys, flirt poles, and balls for fetch. For the more relaxed canine we have plenty of shade for lounging. We have long leads available for use for escape artists or owners who want extra reassurance. All outside play is under constant supervision. If your dog goes to the dog park regularly we try to take them to West Crest during his/her stay with us. When the weather and our schedules allow, we also love to hike. With your permission, I would love to take your dog on a hike with us. Evenings: Our house is very dog friendly. We keep toys on hand to bring the fun indoors. We have a puzzle for nose work for intelligent dogs who need to keep busy. Since our own dog loves to snuggle at night and many of our guest do to, we've upgraded to a large king-size bed. Now both humans and canines can sprawl and be happy. Dogs can also sleep in their own personal beds or crates in any of our living spaces or help themselves to our couch or beanbag. Feeding Time: We are huge fans of baby gates and use them to give dogs private down time while they eat. Doggy siblings are allowed to eat together unless I'm told otherwise. This helps us ensure dogs with dietary sensitivities don't accidentally have a snack they shouldn't. We respect your dogs schedule. I try to keep each dogs routine consistent so they feel at home when they're with us and won't have to readjust when they get back to you. I promise to work with you to make sure your dogs needs are met.
