Thanks for checking out my profile! Please read fully for important info 👀 I started my canine journey many years ago as a foster home for North Star Labrador Rescue. Back then, it wasn’t uncommon to find an entire litter of little puppies in my kitchen- whether they were labs or not, we took them! I wanted to give them the best start in life, so I learned how to get them on the road to being the best pets they could be for their new families. This sparked my interest in training! I started on Rover part time years ago, not knowing it would eventually turn into full-time (or more!!). Large or small, puppy or senior, I love and welcome them all. That’s when I decided to add training to my menu of skills so that any who needed extra help or whose owners wanted to reinforce good habits can feel that they are leaving their precious pup in the right hands. 🏡 Meet & Greet: The whole family plus pup(s) are welcome! Due to the frequency of visitors and boarders, for the safety of my kids and any pets already here, meet and greet is usually limited to outside the home- but there are lots of photos of the inside on my profile! And you may step in of course during pick up and drop off. Typical length should be about 20 minutes during which your dog may enjoy my backyard off leash! (Meet and greets for drop-ins or housesitting will take place at the pet owner’s home and may take longer.) Typical boarding: text updates and photo both morning and evening. Pickup and drop off times are typically limited from 6AM to 11PM unless otherwise agreed for emergency reasons. I typically do not offer boarding longer than 4-5 nights max, most of those requests will be denied as our family schedule is busy and I refuse to excessively kennel- I am present in the home and prioritize time for dogs who I’m watching!! Typical daycare: I submit the “card” at the end of the stay with all pics & info, so often I don’t text many updates for daycare unless a question arises! If you’d like more feel free to reach out. I truly don't want you feeling anxious and will respond ASAP. 🐶📲 🚨📝 As of 1/11/23, new daycare clients please note, daycare over 9 hours per day will carry a $10 per hour surcharge for each subsequent hour past the 9 hours. Please feel free to message me to discuss any concerns about this I believe in Positive Reinforcement and clicker training. I proudly hold a certification from Karen Pryor Academy. Absolutely no negative reinforcement. Love to spend time outside playing. I have two girls, age 13 and 18, who are dog literate rule followers- and a two kitties who stay out of the way when they’re around! Any and all questions welcome. Stop by and check us out anytime :)
