To ensure the safest and most enjoyable experience for your pet in 2026, please share the following details during our initial meet-and-greet: Health & Safety Medical Needs: Please list any allergies, required medications (including dosages and administration tips), or existing physical conditions I should monitor. Vaccination Status: For the safety of my pack and yours, please confirm your pet is up to date on core vaccinations and flea/tick prevention. Emergency Contact: Provide the name of your preferred veterinarian and an emergency contact person if you are unavailable. Behavior & Personality Triggers: Does your pet have specific fears (e.g., thunder, vacuum cleaners, or cyclists)? Knowing what makes them nervous helps me keep them calm. Social Preferences: While my three dogs are friendly, I need to know how your pet typically reacts to high-energy dogs (like my Husky) or dogs that need space (like my Mini Aussie). Leash Manners: Let me know if your dog is a "puller" or if they have reactive tendencies toward other animals while on walks. Daily Routine Feeding Schedule: Provide specific meal times and portion sizes, as well as any "human foods" or treats that are strictly off-limits. Crate Training: Please confirm if your pet is crate-trained or if they prefer a specific sleeping arrangement at night. Energy Level: Is your pet a "couch potato" who prefers snuggles, or an athlete who needs multiple high-intensity play sessions per day? For Cats Hiding Spots: Does your cat have a favorite "safe space" when they are in a new environment? Handling Preferences: Are they okay with being picked up, or do they prefer to approach people on their own terms?

A typical day for your pet is designed around their specific energy levels and personality, blending structured care with plenty of fun. A Typical Day (2026 Schedule) Morning (7:00 AM – 3:30 PM): While I am at work, your pet will enjoy a peaceful morning in a safe, familiar environment. For boarding guests, I try to keep things as the owner does at home. Mid-day they will get a potty & water break. Late Afternoon (After 3:30 PM): The real fun begins! I focus on physical exercise and potty breaks. We’ll spend time in the yard for supervised play or head out for a neighborhood walk. Evening: This is dedicated to "calm enrichment"—cuddles, grooming, and mental games to help everyone wind down for the night. Weekends: My schedule is wide open for "Doggy Day Out" style adventures, including longer walks, local park visits, and extended playtime. Fun Activities Your Pet Will Enjoy Backyard Enrichment: We make the most of my large fenced yard with games of fetch, frisbee, or even "bobbing for treats" in a kiddie pool on warm days. Mental Challenges: I use puzzle feeders, snuffle mats, and "hide-and-seek" with treats to keep their minds sharp and reduce anxiety. Social Play: Your pet will have built-in playmates with my Siberian Husky, Pit Mix, and Mini Aussie. I supervise all interactions to ensure every dog feels safe and happy. Cat-Specific Fun: For my feline guests, I focus on the "prey sequence"—using wand toys for stalking and pouncing before mealtime to satisfy their natural instincts. Special Touches: With owner permission, we love to end a great day with a "pup cup" or a specialized frozen treat.
