Pet care experience

Work from home with a large yard

I've been around sled dogs my whole life, have dogs of my own, worked at 2 separate boarding kennels/doggy daycares, as well as volunteered and worked at Animal Allies. I am also a hobby dog photographer I work from home, so pups will have frequent outs in my fully fenced in 0.3 acre yard. All guest pups can be kept 100% separate from my own pooches, if need be. If and when the guest(s) settle enough, we'll do introductions with my dogs one at a time. I work from home, so pups get frequent time outside for play. My yard is fenced and large, plenty of room for fetch and play, with a designated digging area for those diggers. Currently will only take guests from one-two families at a time Guest dogs are first out in the morning, last out at night. Any free time before/after work and during multiple breaks (my job is flexible, so I log off mid day while guests are here for extra long play breaks) are spent running around and playing outside. I have puzzle toys I set up 1-2 times/day during rest time for mental stimulation My yard is fenced in, and any dog that's anxious or scared is put on a very long cable tie out until they've settled in and warmed up to me as an extra precaution. I utilize kennels and gates to be sure any anxious, scared and/or reactive dog has at least 2 barriers between them and any other dog at all times to prevent overstimulation and/or any reactivity. I always start introductions to any of my dogs one at a time, when applicable

Our boys had the best time, as always, at Patty’s. She is wonderful with them and they always come home happy and tired out. We never worry about a thing when they’re with her. Patty is awesome!!!

Patty is fantastic! She has saved the day with last-minute booking twice, and was communicative and flexible both times. She was welcoming of my dog’s high energy needs, and his routines. She has a great space and crates for pets to make things even easier! Even with her own handful of pups she takes fantastic care of your pets!

Schedule

I work full time from home with a flexible schedule, so dogs will be able to go out plenty. I try to stick to guests schedule as much as I can, though Nevasca is very adamant on her own schedule, so there's no sleeping in past 6am.

Safety, trust & environment

I utilize crates and gates to be able to keep dogs separated if they need to be. My yard is fenced in, and I have a long line that reaches the majority of the yard for those escape artists.

I have a number of toys available to play with, will play fetch, see if they enjoy a flirt pole, do some lite training, I like to put treats around a section of the yard for dogs to sniff out as well.
