'Meet and Greets' are mandatory for new clients before their first stay. This for the safety of your pet as well as mine, and to make sure I can give your dog the best care I possibly can. We can meet at my house or a public place, whichever you prefer. I only ask that you're upfront about any health or behavioral issues, dietary requirements, or medicinal/therapeutic requirements your pet may have so that my husband and I can ensure your pet has the safest and most pleasant experience possible. ** If your dog is prone to severe separation anxiety, I highly recommend seeking a sitter who is home all the time, or a sitter willing to visit your house in his/her home environment. This would be best as I work most days, and I do not wish to cause your dog unnecessary stress. If you would like recommendations for an in-house sitter, or perhaps a trainer to help solve your seperation anxiety issues, feel free to shoot me a message! ** Due to the nature of my scheduling, it is to your benefit to schedule early for drop-offs, pick-ups, and meet and greets. I happily manipulate my schedule around my client's needs. However, if it's less than a week in advance, please understand that you may have to work around our schedule a little.

Unlimited playtime: We will be spending a great deal of time outside with your pups! We don't limit play time (as long as your pup knows when to rest so they do not over heat). When we have guest pups, we are hardly out of the house more than a few hours, 1-2 times a week-we want to be sure your pup is relaxed and enjoying his or her stay and getting ample attention. We proudly offer free range pet care by allowing house trained pups free roaming of our house. Potty breaks: We are outside every few during the day. If your pup has an odd potty schedule, we are happy to accommodate. Our pup parenting style: We believe in free range pup-sitting. The pups can be so much more active this way, and, it really helps reduce their anxiety. A tired pup is a good pup! Your dog will not be crated unless requested or absolutely necessary. We mimic your commands to your pup to encourage positive behavior. Safety is key: We have a 6ft, secure, fenced in yard to keep your pups safe. We do not weed-n-feed the back yard so your pet is safe rolling around until their hearts content. Grass is kept well trimmed to prevent fleas. Pavers are placed anywhere a pup shows interest at the edge of the yard to prevent any exits. We have a rule that either the gate or laundry room door must be shut before opening a door to the outside of the home-this ensures your pup won't take an unsupervised stroll. We use vinegar to disinfect---safe for pups! What to bring: -your pup(s) food (big bags are welcome!) -feeding instructions -favorite bed/toys -treats -vet/emergency information
