Information Lysa A. would like to know about your pet

I love to get information ahead of time on behavior and special needs and I find that as with children, dogs behave quite differently when in someone else home. Clients always love to hear that!

A typical day

I love to walk and hike so there is a lot of that happening with your pup. I never let a dog off leash so no worries there. I also like to pose your dog for pictures to send to you while you are away!

Pet care experience

I am a work at home book and paper conservator which is why I prefer to board dogs in my home or do doggie daycare. I have recently moved here from Austin, Texas where I had a very successful dog boarding business for 6 years. I started my business when I lost my own dog and missed having a dog around. I have a large walled in yard and a park right next door.. I also have a dog friendly cat and I require your dog to be cat friendly. Please note that if for any reason the information I gather from you is not accurate I.E.if you say your dog is cat friendly and they aggressively go after my cat, or I cannot leave the house because your dog has separation issues, you will be charged extra. I have worked hard to make a safe and healthy/holistic environment for the dogs and feel blessed that people trust me with the care of their pets.I treat them as I would my own.

Lysa was an absolute lifesaver during our recent vacay. She and her home were a perfect napping place as well as play zone. We are very thankful to have found her.

Lysa was very sweet and attentive to our adorable Frankie. Even though she only had her for a couple hours, we received multiple photos and updates. It was clear that she was very well cared for.
