Tazito's Dog Daycare

Hello my name is Ruth and I have over 15 years of dog care experience. My first dog won my heart towards the canine friends at the young age of 9, and ever since then I've opened my own home, to two more dogs. My home is a great place for doggies because it is clutter free and spacious where the pup will have a blast running around and making friends, being able to take in an awesome view of the city on our pet friendly porch, taking naps on the couch, and just relaxing while your away. We are located within 5 minutes from down town/the Elmwood village/190/33. We are also close to the main hospitals including Roswell Park, Buffalo General, Oi'Shei Children's Hospital and the medical campus. Also 20 mins from the Niagara Falls. Don't hesitate message us today to set up a meet and greet!

Ruth was absolutely amazing. She sat for our little dog while we went sight seeing. We felt so comfortable leaving our little man with Ruth. Thank you again!!

My dog was well taken care of and I loved getting the daily pictures. It was a relief to know she did so well there! I appreciate Ruth taking such good care of my Lucy. I would definitely book with her again.

Ruth and her husband were very welcoming to our dogs and met us right at the door. I was very appreciative that they were able to take them at the last minute when our usual sitter canceled. The dogs went right with them without problem! My main concern was that before we left, she told us that there were 15 dogs in their apartment for the night (I assume that total was including the 3 of their own). I feel like that many dogs would be difficult to manage in such a small space and that the dogs most likely would not get the attention they needed. One of our dogs did not handle being around so many at one time, so our dogs were outside in the fenced back yard most of the day. Again, they were very friendly and accommodating to us, but I don’t think I would choose to keep the dogs there in the future.

Schedule

I do this full time so your pup will have at the attension they crave during the day. Our normal day consists of running around in the fully fenced in yard and taking naps in front of the fire place when cold and AC when its hott. My hours on Saturdays are from 5AM-9:30AM for drop offs and pick ups.

Safety, trust & environment

We have two fully fenced in yards that are ample in size. With that we are able to safely take out pets leash free fully supervised at all time. Our fences are also very tall so escaping is not an option.

Pets

A typical day

We have an amazing neighborhood that is pet friendly. Everyone walks their pets around here. We will also play catch, and a lot of supervised running around. We also have a small porch our dogs enjoy looking out from watching the birds and squirrels in the trees, and also an amazing vantage point to make sure we all know where the neighborhood cats are hanging out. On a typical day we will stretch out our legs with a morning rump around the back yard and take in all the morning smells including the awesome chickens that live back there (from a safe distance of course). Then its breakfast time! After we have had our nourishment we will have fun chasing balls and other toys and stare out from the best porch view in the city (maybe bark at a neighborhood cat or two). After we will take our nap. After waking up it will be lunch time and selfies! Ill be sending you as many selfies your heart desires! Finaly if they are up for it, for the evening we go outside for our last potty break and then com in and enjoy a yummy dinner. My services are catered to each dog and their energy level. I have experience with high energy dogs all the way down to our slower elderly but young at heart pups. I also have experience with nervous and shy dogs and being able to gain their trust as well as making them feel safe. All pups will leave my care feeling excited and loved.

0 to 15 lbs
Crate-trained dogs only
Ruth can host up to 16 pets per night
I would like to do a meet and greet to make sure the dog is comfortable with myself, husband, son and pets. I would also like to know if your pet is crate trained as that is where they sleep at night. With shy dogs I am great at gaining their trust and letting them come to me first.
