Hello and Welcome, My name is Maria and I have been caring for animals for the past ten years. I have worked in a vets office as a receptionist in the past. It has inspired me to start taking care of fur babies at home. I absolutely love to be around animals and so do my 3 little ones. I provide day care and boarding at my home currently full time. I have a small background with a 6ft fence that the dogs can run around and play. Please feel free to bring anything you like to make your fur baby feel at home. I do ask that all dogs are comfortable around small children and other dogs. I do host more than one dog at a time please keep that in mind. I do not host Aggressive dogs. Also as we may know dogs can roughhouse when playing, if it becomes to aggressive I will stop them from playing with each other. I will also inform you of any injuries or miss-haps if it happens. I will keep you updated daily but I cannot update you hourly, as I care for not only dogs but my small children. Please feel free to ask any questions I look forward in hearing from you. TY !

My dog had a great time! She took care of him very well and provided updates as needed. I think he was as sad to leave as he was happy to see me.

Safety, trust & environment

Please be truthful on behavior. I need to ensure safety and comfort for all dogs. I will need to know if their is any aggression towards any dogs or people and any type of separation anxiety where the dog can potentially damage anything. I do not host Aggressive dog. Any dogs that have aggression towards other dogs will need to be created. I of course will provide plenty of outside time and playtime, I value the safety of the fur babies I host and my family as well. If your dog likes to be left alone I can always accommodate and have them separated from high energy dogs I have ample space in my home and can utilize any room to accommodate any dog. I do separate all dogs during feeding and they will be provided with plenty of water throughout the day. I do allow them to rest 30min after coming in from outside before I give them water.

Pets

A typical day

I like to keep small dogs from large ones and do take all out every 2-3 hrs for potty breaks and play time. Please let me know feeding schedules or any specific schedule you will like me to follow. If the weather is too hot or cold I will limit play time outdoors. I do understand some breeds are not comfortable in all weather conditions.
