Lot of fun playtime in fence yard

Pet care experience

*** about Me **** I love pups of all ages, sizes, and breeds. I use positive reinforcement & lots of bribes when needed! I have over 16 years of dog sitting/ walking experience. I pride myself on being very reliable, honest, responsible, knowledgeable and experienced in caring for puppies to elderly dogs. I am flexible with my schedule and do my best to adapt to your dog’s particular needs. I am home during the day and can offer frequent potty breaks and play time. I take the care of your pet very seriously. I know they are a part of your family, as mine are, and treat them with love and affection. I am a stay at home mom of a 15 year old daughter and a 2 year old Shiba Inu pup that loves to play with any size dog. ~Services offered: ****Daycare*** daycare is perfect for pups who love to play! It is a great way to socialize your pup in a safe and controlled environment or help with potty training with near constant opportunities to go outside to potty. Typically I have multiple pups daily so lots of playtime & tired pups by the end of the day. Pups must good with other dogs, non aggressive, fully vaccinated and ongoing regime of heart worm & flea prevention. Young Pups must be at least 6 months old and cleared by a vet to interact with other dogs. Daycare rates are for a max of 12 hours with drop off between 6:30-9 am and pick up between 4:30-7pm. For longer than 12 hours, overnight rate will apply. With a quick text before arrival I will meet your pup on the driveway so you can be on your way quickly, same with pickup. ***Dog Boarding /sitting in my home *** I offer overnight dog care in my home for short to long term stays. We love to have dogs play all day either inside or out so they are nice & tired for a good night sleep. Dogs sleep in my family room on a couch or dog bed or in a crate if that is what they are used to. I have many size crates so usually you will not need to bring one. A blanket or towel from your home helps make it feel like theirs. I provide treats, bowls for food & water, tons of balls & toys, and dog beds or crates. They will usually only need enough of their regular food for their stay and a leash! The overnight rate is for a 24 hour period, a daycare rate may apply if for longer than 24 but shorter than 48 hours. For example, dropping off dog on Monday morning at 7 am and pick up Tuesday 8 pm, a overnight & daycare rate would apply. Any pick up past 10:00pm will be subject to an additional overnight charge in lieu of an extra daycare charge. I do not allow drop off or pickups before 6:30 am or 10 pm. Drop off & pick up times must be confirmed prior to booking . Please be puntual or if running late text to let me know. ****My home **** My home has a large fenced in yard with lots of summer shade. It is fully and securely fenced with locked gates and added chicken wire to prevent small pups from sneaking out. My house backs up to the Waubonsie lake path with lots of foot traffic but pretty quiet and serene. Inside my house, I block upstairs bedrooms and exit doors with baby gates so no chance of a pup sneaking out & getting into trouble! There is a good size open area inside for playing and lounging on dog beds or couches.

****important rules/information ******** My goal is to have clean and safe environment for pups! With their safety and comfort in mind, I require all dogs must: ~be friendly and enjoy other dogs and people. ~ provide proof of vaccination, have an ongoing regime of heart worm and flea prevention. -puppies must be least 6 months old, crate trained, sleep thru the night, & have all 3 rounds of puppy parvo vaccines, be cleared by a vet to be around other dogs and be on a heart worm and flea & tick preventative regime. Recent Vet records are required. ~ be spayed / neutered ( unless too young in age ). ~ not Mark inside the house. Marking is deliberate urination on multiple objects even after outside potty time. This is my home & take great care to offer clean & sanitary accommodations.
