I am retired, just me and my pack Miss Daisy and Azmo. My Oreo is still listed but he has gone over the rainbow bridge after 14.5 years of faithful companionship. I dedicate my service to his memory so I decided to leave him listed. I truly love dogs, much like a cat lady but a dog man. My home is clean and friendly as my dog! I am usually home almost 24 hours a day to make sure all is well and there is a nice fenced in back yard. It is fortified so the smallest of dogs can't escape and 5' tall so the large ones can't. I will treat your kids as my own, giving them lot's of love and attention. I ask that guests be completely house trained before they are boarded and would prefer all are spayed or neutered and well groomed. IMPORTANT-I also require a meet and greet before requesting boarding for the first time, it helps tremendously in calming everyone down, there is never a charge for this! This is for the care of yours and my guests. I have a responsibility to ensure everyone is happy. You can never truly know how a pet will be with others, but I do what I can. I can't stress this enough, if you are looking for tomorrow and this is your first visit, I may not be able to help you. I am home most of the time now, unless I am tinkering in the garage or out in the yard. So there is plenty of time. As stated I have a fenced yard, a doggie door, an automatic watering bowl. Also my two pack members and plenty of food [non grain salmon based] and treats. If need be I can crate, not what I like to do. I have a crate I have up, they do lay in there, but it's rarely locked.
