Information Kelly H. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your dog is high maintenance, needs medication, and gets along with other dogs which is crucial for me to know because I often (not always) have more than 1 dog here and I want a safe, happy environment for all dogs. I would like them to have a collar on with identification tag, as well as being updated on all shots.

A typical day

I feed dogs separately so that there is no aggression around food unless dogs are from the same family and used to eating together. Dogs have indoor/ outdoor access all day into the backyard. Dogs sleep in the bedroom with me unless they've already claimed a spot on my living room couch.

LOVE DOGS! House w/ yard!

Pet care experience

I have a lovely house with a nice fenced in, very secure yard. I have parented dogs for over 25 years and am currently without one myself. I know that our dogs are our children and I will treat yours as such! Your pup can sit out in the sunshine in the back yard or snuggle up inside. I work from home and will keep a watchful eye out. The french doors are open for indoor/ outdoor access almost all the time. I look forward to taking care of your fur babies. (Sorry to have to say that I NO LONGER TAKE GERMAN SHEPHERDS due to several bad experiences.) AND I only take dogs that are NOT aggressive and get along with other dogs. I prefer that All Dogs are neutered. IF your dog is a puppy - I will take them IF they are house trained and not too hyper. NOTE: RATE is for ONE DAY/ NIGHT STAY - IF PICKUP THE FOLLOWING DAY is PAST 12PM - I ADD A DAY STAY of $40.

Kelly was so nice to us and our skittish senior dog! She was very very careful with him, and he LOVED her back yard! Thank you

Kelly is very communicative and experienced. She took care of our shy dog very well and our dog ended up coming home with confidence playing with other dogs. We are very happy and definitely calling her back again!

Kelly is communicative, and we felt comfortable that she took good care of our dogs. Would hire her again!
