kind, loving care for your dog

Pet care experience

I am an experienced dog lover and I will treat your dog as if they were my own providing them with kind and loving care. I will do all that I can to help them feel safe, secure, comfortable and happy while in my care. They will get plenty of fresh air, exercise and playtime. I am very careful to make sure your dog has playmates that are compatible to their personality and energy level. While your dog is in my care they will be on a leash or playing in my fenced play yard. They will not be allowed to run loose. Fresh water available at all times. Feeding is done individually and on your schedule. I have very flexible availability. Visiting dogs are housed in my climate controlled dog room which is attached to my outdoor fenced in play yard. My dog room contains 6 full size kennels with cots, beds and blankets for your dogs comfort. Usually very small breed dogs will stay right in my home instead of in my dog room..this depends on current availability and the dogs needs & comfort. I am a breeder of Pembroke Welsh Corgis. My Corgis are housed separately from visiting dogs. Although some of my Corgis do come to the play yard to play with the visiting dogs. I work at home as dog care is my full time job so I am able to provide 24/7 loving care on a daily basis. I do offer drop in care. This service depends on the clients and dogs needs as to what care is provided on a drop in basis.

Our dog was well taken care of by Karen. There is a big area for the dogs to be outside and an indoor space. Drop off and pick up was very easy and Karen updated us on how our dog was doing throughout her boarding time. She sent pics as well. Would recommend to others!

Theo had a great time playing with the other dog buddies at Karen's. He seemed very happy and excited to be there.

Information Karen V. would like to know about your pet

All dogs must be current on vaccinations. I like to know a bit about their personality, how well they get along with other dogs and if they are a climber/escape artist.

A typical day

We will spend plenty of time outside in the play yard, playing fetch, tug or playing with other dogs so the dogs get lots of fresh air and playtime.
