Pet care experience

Family loves puppies/small dogs!

My husband and I have both grown up with dogs and cats. Together, we have owned an English bulldog and 2 chihuahuas. We love all dogs, especially puppies and small dogs. We are comfortable and able to handle typical puppy behavior, such as chewing, potty accidents, burning off high energy, etc. We have 4 girls that also love dogs and know how to treat dogs kindly and with respect. Your pet will receive lots of love, attention, snuggles, play time and walks. Because we believe puppies, like the older dogs, should be allowed to follow us around and not be restricted the majority of the time, our charge for puppies is a bit higher than our normal rate. This takes into account the need to watch them constantly.

Laura was amazing! It was our first time leaving our dog after moving to CT and it was important for us to find someone we trusted. Laura let us come for a meet and greet ahead of the stay and sent lots of updates while we were gone. We will absolutely be booking her again for our dog!

As always, Laura and her family took great care of our dog. I always know our dog is happy when she is with Laura and her family -- she is always very excited when she arrives!

Schedule

I currently stay at home. We run out for our kids activities, but other than that we are home most of the day. We are used to taking our chihuahua out for potty breaks multiple times a day. Our yard is also sprayed for ticks and mosquitoes to keep everyone safer. There are minimal steps to the outside area, and no steps in our home, which makes the perfect setting for senior dogs.

Safety, trust & environment

We have a small fenced area in our yard that is perfect for small to medium sized dogs and puppies for quick potty breaks. We live in a low traffic rural neighborhood that is perfect for short and long walks. Besides needed potty breaks, we will take your pup out for a good walk in the morning and evenings and a shorter walk midday. We are also happy to adjust this to fit your pups normal routine. Your pup will also get lots of play time and snuggle time. Dogs being boarded in our home must be comfortable in a crate for the evenings and when we are out for short times during the day. This ensures the safety of your dog.
