All of Dogs will be treated with the utmost respect, and given absolute stimulation care to your specific environment, environmental needs… as you can see we also do board and train at our residential property, dog walks, and drop ins are a firm price due to the amount of training knowledge that we have. We’d love to share our ability how much we love Dogs with the community. If you find my price is too high at the moment I do understand however, this is based on the proper care each Dog needs and travel time already included.

From morning walks to playtime, feeding, and training sessions, my schedule revolves around keeping pets happy and healthy. My days are filled with basic dog training, puppy cuddles, and, of course, keeping those litter boxes fresh and clean. Evenings are perfect for some quiet bonding time with a good game of fetch or a cozy cat nap. Balancing my love for pets with my professional routine brings a sense of fulfillment and fun to every day. It's more than just a job—it's a passion. Your pets will always be at the heart of my daily life, ensuring they get the best care and attention, every single day.

A Fun, Safe Adventure with Personalized Care: When it comes to caring for your beloved pet, understanding their unique needs and personality is essential. Here's how I ensure every pet gets the best care and a fun-filled experience: Getting to Know Your Reactive Dog: If your dog is reactive, it's crucial for us to meet in a controlled environment before their stay. This initial meeting helps us build trust and ensures a smooth, enjoyable experience. We’ll have a relaxed introduction with plenty of treats and positive reinforcement to set the tone for a great relationship. Special Care for Reactive Dogs: For our reactive friends, each activity is carefully planned to avoid triggers and create a calm, positive experience. Meeting in a controlled environment allows me to understand their needs and ensure they feel safe and comfortable throughout the day. Fun Activities and Personalized Attention: - **Playtime:** Interactive toys, games of fetch, and tug-of-war keep your pet entertained and active. - **Training Sessions:** For dogs who love to learn, we'll practice commands and fun tricks to keep their minds sharp. - **Exploration:** Safe exploration time, whether in a secure yard or a favorite room indoors, ensures they stay engaged and happy. - **Relaxation:** Cozy naps, belly rubs, and cuddle time provide the perfect balance to an active day. - **Special Needs:** If your pet has specific requirements, from dietary needs to medication schedules, I follow your instructions to the letter. With me, your pet’s safety, happiness, and well-being are the top priorities. Every day is tailored to their unique personality, ensuring they have fun, feel loved, and stay safe while you’re away. Trust that your furry friend is in experienced, caring hands, ready for a day filled with joy and adventure!

Here’s a glimpse into the adventure your pet will have: **Morning:** - **Rise and Shine:** We start the day with a refreshing walk or play session to burn off some energy and enjoy the morning air. - **Breakfast Time:** I’ll prepare a nutritious breakfast just the way you instructed, ensuring your pet gets their favorite meal to kickstart their day. **Mid-Morning:** - **Adventure Awaits:** Depending on your pet’s preference, we might head out for a longer walk, visit a local park, or enjoy a game of fetch in the backyard. - **Training and Tricks:** If you’ve got a pup that loves to learn, we’ll spend some time practicing commands and fun tricks, keeping their mind sharp and engaged. **Afternoon:** - **Relax and Recharge:** After all that excitement, it’s time for some downtime. Cozy naps on their favorite spot, belly rubs, or quiet cuddle time are perfect. - **Lunch Break:** A light meal or snack as per your instructions, making sure their dietary needs are met. **Early Evening:** - **More Fun and Games:** The fun continues with interactive toys, tug-of-war, or even a splash in a pet-friendly pool if they love water. - **Exploration Time:** For our feline friends, we’ll have stimulating play sessions with laser pointers, feather toys, and some high-perch exploration. **Evening:** - **Dinner Delight:** A delicious dinner, prepared exactly as you’ve specified, ensuring they end the day with a happy and full tummy. - **Wind Down:** As the day winds down, we’ll have a calm evening walk or play some gentle games to relax before bedtime. **Bedtime:** - **Goodnight Routine:** We’ll stick to your pet’s bedtime routine, whether it’s a final potty break, a bedtime treat, or some soothing pets before they drift off to sleep.

Maddie took very good care of our dog Cooper. She was very attentive and made sure Cooper’s needs were met. She also sent us photos of Cooper playing with other dogs. We will use her again next time we need to board him.

Ollie stared having major FOMO when in the kennel. Maddie worked with him on finding what kennel worked. He is also a picky eater, and she did different exercises with him so he ate all his food. Overall great service and very sweet, would recommend to anyone especially if dog has any issues.
