Information Kim T. would like to know about your pet

We prefer doing a meet n greet with new pup and human clients to ensure a good fit. Let us know any of your dog’s special needs, health issues, or peculiarities and provide us a sense of your dog’s personality and schedule and we will accommodate to make sure your dog is most comfortable in our home. Please provide emergency information and vet information.

Mutt-ley Crew Retreat - At home FT

Pet care experience

Mutt-ley Crew Pet Retreat - Home Fulltime Does your dog have what it takes to join our Mutt-ley Crëw? · A little bit quirky? · Steal hearts and kisses everywhere they go? · Always checking out butts? Then your fur babies would fit right in with our Mutt-ley Crëw! The current band line up: Jeff, Kim, Wabi-Sabi Our new band member, Wabi-Sabi is perfect, perfectly imperfect! Jeff: Actively practices positive reinforcement obedience training. Leader of the pack that oddly enough needs positive affirmation from dogs to validate his existence. One of the friendliest humans at the Dog Park known for his dog massages. Works at home full-time, dog pied piper. Kim: Professional that works from home full-time, so with the dogs for company, walks, play, meals etc. Kim has taken several classes with the American Kennel Club for obedience, rally and agility so don't get in her way when she is "in the zone" yelling, "ramp…good! Tunnel...tunnel," etc. She is also a softy when it comes to giving treats. Wabi-Sabi: Sweet little one, sometimes got a mind of her own. Loves humans and loves meeting other dogs. We humans volunteer at animal rescue shelters & organizations and love dogs! · Spacious, clean modern house with fenced-in backyard · Plenty of walks throughout the day in the neighborhood and Mills College campus · Playtime and exercise and chilling in the backyard and at parks · Quiet, chill household perfect for naps, belly rubs, toys and lots of love and attention We are looking for additional mates to join the band. Friendly, not aggressive (no TV’s thrown out the windows please).

Fred was in great hands during his stay. He came home well-rested and calm, and Kim T did a great job of punctuating my work trip with sweet photos of my pup.

Baxter had a great stay with Kim and her crew of pups! Kim provided regular updates with helpful details on how Baxter was doing, which put my mind at ease since it was his first stay there. He got lots of play time and enjoyed the backyard/garden. Kim is always friendly in her communications. I'd love for Baxter to stay with Kim again!
