Mt Airy Animal House

Pet care experience

**About me** We are a laid-back, animal-loving family of three, including an 13yr old daughter! I am generally home throughout the day. All of our friends consider our home to be the Animal House, and keep asking (jokingly) when the miniature horses will be arriving. All of our daughter's friends love to come over to experience and play with all of the animals. Currently, we have: 2 dogs, 3 indoor cats, a few caged friends, a backyard flock of friendly hens, and even a few mini goats. Both of our dogs are docile, affectionate, and welcoming, and there's always room for one more. **About my home/services** We are located in the E Mt Airy neighborhood of Philadelphia, and have a large (.68 acres) fenced yard for our pups to play in. We live in a large, stone house, with plenty of space to play, and lots of outdoor time. Dogs will be well exercised in the yard, snuggled on the sofa, and allowed to sleep in bed if they Choose. We offer over-night care in our home, and accept 1-2 dogs (from the same home) at a time. Please, only friendly dogs with No Aggressive Issues. We take dogs up to 40lbs, but do make exceptions for exceptionally docile, larger dogs like Spinones (Like our Juniper, the gentle giant). We do not currently board Bully breeds or mixes. Also, please be sure that your adult dog is neutered and is ok around cats and kids. **About my neighborhood** We are in East Mount Airy, near Lovett Library and Mt Airy playground/ball park. We have lovely neighbors and it is generally quiet . **What to expect** Cuddles! I will try not to annoy your dog with too much cuddling, but if they are a snuggler, they've found the right house! Again, lots of yard time and ball throwing, plus sofa snuggles, sleeping in bed, playing with the resident pups and cats, and walks if wanted. Our yard is large, and our dogs generally wear themselves out there, quite easily. I am generally at home throughout the day, so your pup will NOT be left for long stretches of the day. **Special rules or requests** Because we do have other pets and a child, we do insist that only friendly dogs that play well with others, board here. We do not currently board any bully breeds/mixes. And again, dogs must be neutered if older than a puppy. Please contact me for a doggy meet and greet! I work part time from home, and am generally here throughout the day. Our dogs are in and out of our yard all day, as needed. We have a fenced yard and are very door and gate conscious. We can crate your pup at night if you prefer, or it may sleep with us.

Absolutely amazing. My little dog had the greatest time, got a lot of socializing and exercise everyday. I boarded him for a week and would absolutely do so again.

These folks allow my dog to sleep under the covers with them. Enough said!

Jennifer is the best! Cared for our dog as her own. So much space for Summer to play in and other furry friends for her to play with!

Please let me know if your pup has any special needs or dietary requirements. I Am happy to give medications, and we love older dogs as well.

A typical day

Our yard is a fun place for any pup. We have lots of space and plenty of other animals to keep them entertained and stimulated. Typically, dogs that experience separation anxiety at other places, do not experience it here. There is just too must distraction! Dogs do tend to get dirty sometimes!
