Convenient to RIC Airport and major highways!! Home all-day from December 20th - January 4th. I raised both Chow Chows and Papillons and am currently without a pet. I sit CRATE-TRAINED toy, small and medium sized dogs and the crate requirement is a NON-NEGOTIABLE. (Please do not request a Meet and Greet if you are not comfortable having your dog crated when I am off premises). Your fur babies will enjoy a private fenced landscaped back yard for off leash exercise and walks on leash throughout a tree-lined neighborhood. Any diet you have for your pet I will follow religiously, I give all pets filtered ice and water throughout their stay and there is no need to bring dog bowls, your pet will dine on Le Creuset Pet Bowls! I also have treats if you run out or do not mind little extras for your pet. I live near RIC airport and major highways including I-64, I-295, I-895 and I am minutes away from the Capital Bike Trail (on Route 5). I am happy to accommodate early morning drop-offs for early flights and late night pick-ups from red eye flights! Long-term and short-term visits are available. Due to high demand (thanks y'all), I book UP TO FOUR stays at one time with up to SIX dogs if there are same household pairs or previous customers present. I will try to inform you if I have multiple bookings during the stay, however, I do not guarantee that your dog(s) will be the only dog here during their stay as I receive booking requests on a regular basis. I put protocols in place for safe socialization, feedings, walking on leash and sleeping arrangements. Again, CRATED dogs are required. I have a three-pronged reflective leash to safely walk them individually and as a group. Demand for pet sitting has increased significantly and with peak times including major holidays and spring break I ask that you please book early. I have breed restrictions in my area so please no Pit Bulls, Cane Corso, Rottweilers, my beloved Chows or other dogs with high attack histories. Dogs should not be destructive or aggressive (furniture chewing, wall damage, destroying crates, jumping on doors and windows, etc...). I regularly update my calendar for the year. I look forward to meeting you and caring for your dogs!
