My husband and I are both retired teachers and love spending time with our dogs. Lola is 12 years old and Riko is 6 years old, both are Cotton De Tulear mixes. Riko loves playing with our visiting canines and Lola is their audience. We also temporarily have a grand cat staying with us. I have always been an animal lover and surrounded by pets. I can't think of a better activity in retirement than to spend more time with animals. On days we are boarding pets our usual routine is to stay at home with maybe an occasional errand. While in our home your pet will be the focus. All pets have access to the entire house with frequent trips to the large fenced backyard to play. We do not put any pets in kennels unless instructed by the owners for specific times. We will occasionally board for 2 families at the same time but only if we have met both dogs and are confident they will be a good match. If you would prefer that we only board your dog during their visit please let us know before confirming the booking so we can make note to insure that this request is honored.
