I am an experienced, life-long dog owner and lover. Whether your dog is shy or bold, young or senior, large or small, I will provide loving care for your best friend. My family consists of myself, my husband, my 2 children ages 9 & 12 and my 2 dogs Polkadot (10) & Tobi (<1) My home has a dog door that leads to our fenced backyard so your dog will have plenty of room to run and play. I like to let dogs sleep wherever they are most comfortable and do not require them to be crated at night so long as they are well behaved, potty trained and do not cause a disturbance to others. Guests will have free roam of the main areas of my home during their visit and will be allowed in bedrooms with supervision. All dogs will be separated at mealtimes so that they can eat without disruption and so that dogs don't feel the need to guard resources and also to avoid the chance of anyone getting an upset stomach from eating anyone else's food. Access to fresh water is provided around the clock (Please let me know if your dog is on any type of fluid restriction or if they have a recommended cut off time so appropriate measures can be taken). For dogs that free feed they will be offered food multiple times throughout the day but I am unable to leave food out as to ensure other dogs won't be able to consume it.

Safety, trust & environment

A quick meet & greet is almost always required prior to a new stay. Occasionally a trial daycare or overnight may be necessary to make sure your pup is a good fit for longer stays. - For the safety of my family, pets and boarding/daycare guests that may be in my care I can NOT keep any dogs that are known to be aggressive in my home, if your dog shows any aggressive behavior at drop off or during their stay that can not be controlled or corrected, services will be subject to termination and your dog will be required to be picked up or alternate care arrangements be made. In the event that a stay is terminated due to aggressive, destructive or otherwise unsafe behavior, refunds will be given at my discretion. -Bring it list- • food• leash• collar/ harness• pet bed/blanket if they have something special they prefer. *I'm so very sorry but I can no longer accept new clients with the following breeds: GSD or Pit Bulls.

Information Krystal S. would like to know about your pet

Please also let me know of any special needs ahead of time. This includes any medications I would have to give, special exercises, allergies, any special quarks your pup might have,etc. - A Pet Questionnaire will be sent to all new Clients prior to a stay and Yearly after the 1st stay. Thank you so much for taking the time to read my profile, I look forward to hearing from you and am happy to answer any questions you may have!

A typical day

We love hiking, time at the lake and spending time at the park. We just love being outside! **Dogs cared for in my home must be spayed or neutered(unless a puppy), current on all vaccines (lepto is highly recommended if your pet adventures with us) on flea/tick prevention, potty trained (unless a puppy) and be appropriately socialized. Aggressive dogs would NOT be a good fit for us for boarding or daycare, but we'd love to help you out with house sitting or drop ins!

Pet care experience

Hey there my name is Krystal, thank you for visiting my profile and considering me for your Pet care needs! If you’re like me, your pets are family members. When you can’t be home for them, whether it’s for work, vacation or other obligations, you want your best friends taken care of with the same love and attention you give them. I do my absolute best to make sure each dog that visits my home has a fun, relaxing and stress free stay. I like to consider this a vacation for them and strive to make them feel like they are at their second home.

Absolutely amazing! She was so kind and welcoming at our meet and greet, I felt incredibly comfortable leaving my pup with her! She made sure he got exercise and all the love in the world. This was our first time using rover and she definitely gave a perfect first impression. I'll definitely be contacting her again!
