Perfect home layout for lots ofdogs
Pet care experience
I have been rescuing dogs for over 10 years, with 3 successful forever homes found and two whom I couldn’t let go. Up until last fall we had 5 fur babies, and sadly lost two elders to cancer at the very end of 2019. We have a very open floor plan on the main floor that they have the run of and their own bedroom to take naps and sleep and play in. I have several crates on hand if your dog needs a space of their own at night or they can sleep in the dogs’ room or in our room with our own little pack. I do work full time during the week about 30 minutes away. I am gone from 7:15 until 4:30. I have a video camera set up in the dogs room so I can check in on them from time to time. While COVID is here my 18 year old daughter is home during the day doing virtual school so she is available for lunchtime potty breaks. We don’t have a fenced in backyard. But we do play out there with them a lot. We will keep your dog on a long leash so he/she can run around. I take a 4 mile walk in the mornings and can take your dog with me or for shorter intervals in the evenings as needed. I have 3 dogs, a 16 year old blind male chihuahua, a 12 year old female Yorkie, and a 6 year old male basset hound mix. All are fixed and friendly and are used to accepting new friends quickly as I often take care of friends and colleagues dogs.
Reviews
Great stay! Bruno was in good hands during our time away from home. Thank you so much for your excellent care.
Rebecca was great with Boomer. He is an 12yr old dog with heath issues, and she took great care of him. I recieved daily updates, and she contacted me with questions. Would board with her again.
Rebecca and family took great care of our older pup. We will definitely be returning when needed.
Aiko looked like she was very happy with her stay. Looks like she had fun with the other dogs. Thanks Rebecca.

Home
Information Rebecca C. would like to know about your pet
No breed preferences, love them all. I would want to know medical needs and background. Food preferences and temperament towards food aggression or not. How long it might take them to come out of their shell for the first time. Toy and treat loves and dislikes. Level of energy and exercise needs.
A typical day
We live in a nice neighborhood with good sidewalks and trails. We play in our backyard often as it is open and the sun hits it almost all day so the dogs can enjoy a little sunning time. My husband is a couch potato and will gladly spend hours snuggling with any dog available as her works on his phone and relaxes after work.
