Doggie Heaven! Country Cuts Farm

Come stay and play with us on your doggie vacation! We have a 10 acre farm with cows and horses lots of bird watching and frisbee playing. We play frisbee after dinner with lots of exercise for all. I have three shelties of my own and been grooming dogs for 15 years, so if your pet needs sprucing up grooming is also provided. Very peaceful and relaxing. I have 45 years experience with dogs, and give medications. Require that all dogs are pest free! Give us a e mail to come meet us all! About this sitter: I've had dogs all of my life and breed and shown shelties for 15 years. They are our life we do not have real kids, so these are our children. They are very well taken care of and provided for. also I had a therapy dog with Pet Paterners, Shane was a read dog. We visited nursing homes and schools. I groom dogs in my home and board. Over all we have a lovely home with lots to offer your pet, come take a look and see if it's the right fit for your kidd! We would all love to meet you. Why I love dog sitting All my life I've loved dogs. Shown and breed shelties, delivered litters and watched and understand dog behavior. Meet my pets Small farm of 10 acres. It's wonderful here. About my yard A lot of land and fenced, farm property. Huge back fenced area about 1 acre. same with the front area. All dogs are never let out alone, I am always with them to make sure they don't wander to far.

Melanie was absolutely great with my Lucy. She sent me pictures and videos of how she was doing and interacting with the other dogs, which eased my mind about leaving Lucy. Thank you and I definitely will be using Melanie in the future.

Ronin loved staying with Melanie and her pups. He had lots of land to run and play and it was great knowing he was loved and cared for.

A typical day

Here's where we'll take our walks On my property. lots of land 10 acres and cows/horses to bark at. Sorry I cannot except any dogs over 22 inches high. *Also dogs need to be pick up by 6pm including an additional 20 dollar fee if not pick up by 2pm, as they are here the whole day. So I can be sure to be avaliable. NO HOLIDAY PICK UPS! NO SUNDAY PICK UP MUST BE Monday. Pick up the following day. Your dog's sleeping arrangement In a crate at night and when I am away, for security and safety reasons for everyone and espcially to keep your kid safe! You never want to leave someones pet roam free they could digest something toxic, or hurt themselves unattended. They are like children, so they have to be watched. Especially young ones. Time I'll spend with your dog Almost all day, and night. They truly have a great experience here, very relaxing and rejuvenating! Lots to do!

0 to 15 lbs
16 to 40 lbs
Dogs over 1 year old
Spayed and neutered dogs only

Habits, potty and crate trainned. Do they like to chew alot! Like furniture or electric cords, are they diggers? Any health issues. Will they run off? Also I need to know if your dog has ever bitten another dog or human. Aggression of any form is not acceptable!! Shelties of course.
