I have a 9-5 job that I need to physically leave home. Therefore, I only accept boarding over the weekends with start day in the evening of Friday (morning is up to discussion). Besides that, I’m pretty much flexible and can take on last minute request in the same week as long as there is enough time to schedule a Meet & greet. My dog Laila has dog reactivity, so I understand how challenging it is to take care of special-need dogs. If your pet is boarded at my place, they will be separated and go through slow introduction.

Information Phuong V. would like to know about your pet

I need all the details that help me with maintaining their well-being, including diet requirements, leash behavior, and any other medical or behavioral issues. For boarding, I do ask your pets to be fully vaxed and have flea and worm treatment.

A typical day

Once I know your dog temperament, we can hike in the Natural Hillside Area or play at Bruce King Memorial Dog Park in my neighborhood. I also love taking dogs for a walk in the Albany Bulb and letting them sniff their new doggy friends.

Pet care experience

Hi. My legal name is Phuong and I also go by Rae. I've had dogs for the most part of my life (all adopted or given). I volunteered at a rescue group in socal so I'm fully experienced in working with cats and giving oral medication. I was chosen as the best 'scratch-giver' among all the volunteers by the most finicky cat in the rescue group (I know that by being the only one getting her affection). I also had volunteer work with rabbits at the shelter and let them out in play pen for exercise. Now I occasionally volunteer with PALS to give dogs vaccine, deworm and topical flea treatment.
