WHO ARE WE? The Thacker Family of four. I am Qian, my hubby Andrew and our two fur babies Niko and Hitch. Niko is our very first fur baby,we adopted him when he was five months old. Born with the most affectionate nature as a Shih Tzu, Niko loves to play and is obsessed with miniature tennis balls. Later on, we felt Niko needed a close buddy to play with. We were lucky to have Hitch in the Thacker family! As a half Shih Tzu and half Bichon, Hitch became Niko's best buddy. They love to play, snuggle and cuddle. Your fur babies are welcome to join our family for a staycation! Maybe join us for walks in the patapsco park; we can go explore nature if your fur babies are interested. We go on daily walks at least an hour a day. If your fur babies prefer to stay cool inside, we have plenty of space and a large rooftop to relax. And of course, lots of toys for your fur babies too. WHAT IS THE NEXT STEP? The Thacker family would love to meet and greet your fur baby. We would appreciate booking at least a day in advance. WHAT WOULD WE LIKE TO HEAR FROM YOU? 1.What's your fur baby's daily routine? Energy and anxiety level? Potty trained? Any special needs we should pay attention to? Any good or bad behaviors we should learn about? Are they socialized with people/ other dogs? 2.Are they up to date on vaccinations ( rabies, flea tick prevention, Bordetella, lyme prevention, DHPP/DA2PP)? WHAT TO BRING? Your fur babies' favorite food, snacks or toys. If they prefer to sleep in crate, feel free to bring it. WHAT TO EXPECT? 1.Your fur babies will be taken outside 4-5 times daily or as preferred by you. 2. Your baby will be the only one to stay with us during the scheduled time. 3. All fur babies in the house will be separated during meal time or treat time. No worries, just relax and enjoy the meal/snacks. 4.We'll send you lots of picture updates for your fur baby's up and about.
