THINGS TO KNOW WHEN BOOKING: - Please have your dog’s Rover bio up to date. - You do not need to have a meet-and-greet. If your dog gets along great with other dogs, I am comfortable meeting you and your pup at the time of drop-off. - all dogs sleep in extra large crates in our fully finished and heated garage. we feed the dogs in their crates to avoid any food agression. we provide the crates, and towels and blankets. we can only take dogs that sleep quiet in a crate as we have kids and live in a quiet neighborhood- we all need our sleep too :) - All dogs need to have a collar with an I.D. tag. No harnesses please, harnesses can cause chafing if left on for too long. -we can only take unneutered males up to a year old - When coming over for a boarding or daycare, the ONLY thing you should bring is enough food/meds for their stay along with your dog on a leash. Food/meds need to be in a disposable bag with pre-measured portions in disposable sandwich bags (labeled as breakfast lunch or dinner if different amounts of food) Please pack a little extra food than they usually get as most dogs come and get way more play and exercise than they are used to and want/need to eat a little more. Please put any meds in the same bag with the meal it should be taken with. The only exception is if your dog eats wet food. If your dog does not need meds, you can also send a container with a scoop and instructions for feeding. We’ve noticed many people under guesstimate or measure incorrectly how much food there is when packing in a container, so please do double what you think it will be so we don’t run out. If your pup runs out of food we can feed our food at $3 a bowl- we feed Stella and chewys cage free kibble/freeze dried raw blend. If we notice your dog is getting low on food we will offer to supplement the needed amount and will mix with your remaining food so that they can adjust to the food rather than start a new food all at once. You may also have your food delivered to our home. -Personal beds/toys/bowls/belongings cause issues with our group as some pups get possessive over their personal belongings from home. Do not bring any of these items. ONLY bring your dog on a leash and food/meds, nothing else. We will provide the other items. If you bring food bowls, please label them with your pets name. - When you are leaving your house, please text me with the time your GPS says you will arrive at my house. Message me again when you get here, and I will come out to meet you and your pup. Please do not knock on the door or ring the doorbell as this will excite all the dogs inside (If I have not responded to your text with in 5 minutes then yes, please do ring both of our door bells) I will take your dog inside or to our outside run to meet the other dogs through a fence without you and introduce them to the group one dog at a time, starting with my dogs.(some dogs get protective over their owners in a new environment).
