Safety, trust & environment

The furry babies who stay with us prefer to spend most of their day at our side. But when they are not relaxing with us, they are playing with each other or exploring our large, fenced yard! We take every opportunity to play with our visiting friends and give every one of them all the love and attention they deserve! Attention comes in all different varieties, from fetch to endless head scratches and belly rubs.

Information Michael & Wendy E. would like to know about your pet

• We cannot take dogs who have been to commercial boarding/daycare/training anytime within the last 4 weeks due to the risk of kennel cough. • NO BOARDING / NO MEET & GREETS if your dog has been sick any time within the last 12 weeks due to risk of transmission (even if your dog already feels better). • Our top priority is ensuring a serene and harmonious stay for every furry friend. We prefer to accommodate dogs who are less vocal, as we strive to be mindful of our neighbors and create a peaceful environment for all. • Please understand that other dogs could be boarding during your stay, so let us know if your dog does not get along with other dogs for the safety of all the furry babies during their stay. Information we like to know beforehand: - Interaction nature with others (Friendly, aggressive, does not play well with others, etc.). - Routine (including if food is scheduled & at what time) and any special needs. - Level of training. - Any training needs? (Providing consistent practice with commands via treats/clickers).

A typical day

• The dogs usually get plenty of activity in the spacious backyard and love playing with new canine friends and our family. • We are happy to provide a daily walk if needed, as we often do with other dogs, but it is not a fixed routine. Just let us know if your dog prefers a walk & how you prefer your dogs on the leash (Loose & able to roam vs short leash on single side) and any commands you use.

Pet care experience

• My wife and I work from home and have plenty of time to care for your dog(s). We have a spacious backyard for your furry babies to run around with access to the indoor air conditioning/heating. • The dogs spend most of their day hanging out with us while we work or they are playing with each other - We send pictures/video updates of your baby daily! • We each have 30+ yrs of owning dogs. • We can maintain your dog's routine. • HOURS: We are available for drop off/pickup any time within the following windows but if you can text or call when you are on the way, which would be appreciated. M-F: 6:30 AM to 8 PM Sat/Sun: 8 AM - 8 PM We do not respond to Rover messages after ~8 PM, but I will get back to you around 6 AM the following morning if your message was overnight. • Requirements: This is what we do part-time, and we do sit for multiple dogs. Safety and fun are our top priorities, so it is especially important to us that all dogs we take have a good relationship with each other and have no history of aggression. We require a meet & greet or trial daycare for all new dogs before their first stay. We will have you bring them over for 15-20 minutes so we can evaluate their interaction with our family and other dogs to ensure they will be a good fit for all.

Michael, Wendy and their sweet family were amazing with our Charlie! We joked that he might be disappointed to get picked up! It was wonderful to have such peace of mind knowing our puppers was in great hands.
