My husband and I live in a quiet, gated community in the Spring Valley area, where your pup will have plenty of space to relax, play, and feel right at home. ⸻ ❤️ What Makes Our Home Different • I only board one family’s dog(s) at a time, so your pup will enjoy a calm, low-stress environment with personalized care and attention throughout their stay. • Crate-trained dogs are preferred. Please bring your pup’s crate so they have a familiar, safe place to relax. We occasionally step out on weekends for about 1–2 hours, and during that time dogs will be safely crated. If your dog is not crate trained, please reach out before booking so we can discuss whether our home is the right fit. • Established clients whose dogs are not crate trained are always welcome to book with us again. Once we’ve gotten to know your pup and they’re comfortable in our home, I’m happy to make exceptions on a case-by-case basis. ⸻ 🕓 Availability • I work full-time in healthcare Monday through Thursday, so I dedicate my weekends to care for your pup. • I currently offer boarding Friday through Sunday. • A 2-night minimum is required for all weekend boarding bookings. • Thursday night bookings/drop-offs after 6pm can be accommodated with advance notice. ⸻ 🚗 Drop-off & Pick-up • Friday Drop-offs: As early as 7:00 AM (earlier times may be available with advance notice). • Sunday Pick-ups: Ideally by 9:00–9:30 PM. If you need a later pick-up, please let me know in advance. I work early Monday mornings, so I appreciate your understanding. ⸻ 🏡 Our Home We provide a clean, comfortable, and loving environment where your dog can settle in and feel at ease. • Our home is thoroughly cleaned after every guest’s stay. For everyone’s health and safety, all dogs must be current on vaccinations. Potty-trained pups are greatly appreciated. • Dogs are welcome on our sofa and bed. Please let me know if your pup is allowed on furniture or if you’d prefer they stay off—we’re happy to follow your rules. • I’m happy to care for senior dogs, shy dogs, or dogs with special needs, and I’ll gladly follow any routines, medications, or care instructions to help them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. ⸻ 🌳 Backyard Our spacious, fully fenced backyard includes a designated gravel potty area and artificial turf for running, playing, and sunbathing. • Dogs are always supervised while outside and are never left unattended. ⸻ 💧 Food & Water Your pup will always have access to fresh, filtered water from our reverse osmosis system. • Food and water bowls are provided. If your dog uses a slow feeder or a special bowl, you’re welcome to bring it. • Please pack your dog’s regular food, treats, and any special snacks to help them feel at home. • Favorite toys, blankets, medications, and comfort items are always welcome. • I do my best to follow your dog’s normal routine so they feel happy, safe, and comfortable while you’re away. ⸻ 💕 Final Notes • I look forward to welcoming you and your pup into our home and providing a safe, loving place to stay while you’re away. • Meet & greets are encouraged whenever possible to make sure we’re a great fit for one another and to help your pup feel comfortable before their stay. • Meet & greets are available Monday–Thursday after 6:00 PM and Friday–Sunday by appointment.
