StayTopia The Place For Pets

Pet care experience

I have over 40 years of experience with dogs and cats. I have trained all of our dogs simple commands like; sit, stay, come, stop, and bell training for going to the potty. I'm experienced with administering medications in all forms. I do not work outside the home so I am always with my animals, they have constant attention and frequent potty and exercise breaks (every 2 hours). I thoroughly enjoy taking care of not only my animal, but yours as well.

As always, Loretta and Stephen took such great care of my puppy. You can tell by how happy she is around them that they truly love her and I can trust them with her.

Loretta and Stephen are amazing. Loretta has the patience and dog knowledge to work with our dog who was a little scared at first. They are now playing ball and Rylee has found a new best friend. Thank you Loretta for taking such great care of Rylee while we are unable to. It is so comforting to know she is in good hands .

First time I’ve used day care for Cleo. Loretta could not have been more welcoming and professional. Wonderful facility!

Information Loretta & Stephen H. would like to know about your pet

At a typical Meet and Greet I will have an information sheet we will fill out together that has all the important info for us to use to care for your pet properly. I'm no longer able to board or doggy daycare pets that have ANXIETY as I have 2 veterans, my husband and our son in our home who both can't handle the noise and running around of those pets that have anxiety.

A typical day

A typical day at StayTopia consists of potty breaks as soon as they are let out of the crate in the a.m. then morning food, water and meds ( for those pets who take them) then alternating between outside play and indoor quiet times and belly rubs. Pets are let outside every 1-1/2 to 2 hr. for potty and exercise.

Availability

Pets in my home are crated and fed separately unless they are family and need to be crated together. We have a fully finished tiled basement where the animals are kept in crates and a back door leading to a 6 ft. fenced yard. Dogs are let out individually or in families to relieve themselves. We live right besides the Washington veterinary Clinic and Dr. Stultz is just across the yard.
