I'm an active stay at home mom with 2 kids in school most of the day and a 2 yr old Rhodesian Ridgeback-mix pup. I am able to schedule my days around making sure our pup gets plenty of love, attention, consistency and exercise. I only do doggy day care, and for my fee you get: -100% supervision (I do not leave dogs unattended the entire time they are with me) -Runs/Hikes/Walks (most days I take dogs out for 1-2 hrs of exhausting exercise) -Socialization (as much or as little as you prefer) -Safety (I am extra cautious about everything - opening doors, interactions with people/kids/other dogs outside the home, doggy playtime at home, etc.) Drop off and pickup generally between 7:30am and 6:00pm. I feel the same way about my dog that I do about my children - I'm INCREDIBLY picky and don't feel comfortable leaving them anywhere that I'm not 100% comfortable that they will not be unattended or ignored, so I completely understand wanting to find a trustworthy, comfortable place to leave your pup. NOTE: Since my 'mom' schedule can be highly unpredictable from day to day, I am not the best option for "regular" doggy day care. I am a good option for those who need their higher-energy puppy or dog tired out on a particular day due an unexpected long absence and want reassurance that your pet will be safe, happy and tired out. (i.e. all-day work meeting, driving for school field trip, traveling in the area with your dog). I will make sure my calendar is constantly updated as to which exact days I am available.
