Availability

My goal is to keep dogs in a comfortable and regular routine that closely resembles their daily routine. Usually available at any time from Friday to Sunday. Overnights from Monday through Friday can be discussed. Morning ( about 8:00 AM to 9;00 AM): Take a quick walk and use the restroom first thing in the morning, then eat breakfast in accordance with the dog’s regular feeding schedule and serving size. Mid-day: Depending on dog’s activity level (about 12:00 PM to 1:00 PM) playing, exercise, and potty break can include fetch in the yard or a stroll to a local park. Late afternoon/evening: A lengthier stroll (about 5:00 to 6:00 PM) will guarantee the dog has had enough exercise before dinner. Dinner will be served in accordance with the feeding plan, giving the body time to digest before engaging in strenuous activities. Bedtime: Before going to bed (about 9:00 to 10:00 PM), take one last bathroom break. The dog will be provided with comfort products and their typical sleeping setting.

Approximately 2,000 sq ft fenced-in yard with two 25-pound, 6-year-old furry companions and a dog door. When you’re gone, your pet won’t be alone. My house has a carpeted ramp leading to the king-size bed, steps leading to each couch, and a pet camera.

Ronald, Jason, Bella, and Frankie accepted Reba as part of their pack immediately. I knew she’d be in good hands and she was. They were also kind enough to watch her for an extra day due to weather that delayed my travel. I’m excited for Reba to visit again! Thank you so much, Ronald & Jason!
