***PLEASE READ FULL PROFILE PRIOR TO MESSAGING/BOOKING :)*** *HAS FULL TIME JOB *DOES NOT ALLOW PETS IN BED AT NIGHT DURING DOG BOARDING- PETS EITHER NEED TO BE BED OR CRATE TRAINED OR COMFORTABLE SLEEPING IN ANOTHER SPACE ALONE. *MAY ASK FOR MEET & GREET PRIOR TO BOARDING *REQUIRES VET RECORDS FOR BOARDING *DOGS ARE KEPT SEPARATE TO START & AS NEEDED — my dogs are 50/50 with other dogs and are typically kept separate to start. My house has ample space to separate dogs if need be, but still allow for comfortability. Both my dogs are comfortable with different personalities. I judge on a case by case bases if it is safe to allow any boarded dog to meet my dogs. --- My name is Samantha & I have watched after animals for as long as I can remember. Whether my parents were going out of town or friends needed someone to watch their pup while they went away, I was always the girl they would call! I’ve had 8 dogs, 2 cats, a Guinea pig, and a hamster in my lifetime both growing up and in my adulthood, so it’s easy to say I love animals and enjoy taking care of them! I also continuously foster dogs whenever I am able. I have experience with all sorts of dogs; big and small, medical cases, human reactive dogs, dog reactive dogs, geriatric dogs, and many more! My specialty is boarding dogs that others may stray away from due to behavior concerns. But keep in mind, if I do not believe I am a good fit for your dog or vice versa, I will honest for the betterment of the dog :) I previously volunteered with a dog rescue for 2 years, and have acquired knowledge on force free/fear free positive reinforcement training as well as canine behavior through their certified behavioral specialist. I do have a regular full time job, but no matter my schedule, I make sure I have ample amount of time for walks, play time, and fun. Both my personal dogs and boarded dogs are my number 1 priority. **PLEASE NOTE THE FOLLOWING: MY DOGS: I currently have a older dog named Calvin and a younger dog named Belle. Please see their profiles for more individual information. VACCINATIONS: Your pup must be up-to-date on all vet-recommended vaccines, and be free of fleas and ticks, and cannot have any contagious illnesses including kennel cough and intestinal parasites. Please provide your dog's up to date vaccination records upon drop off. This is very important for the safety of my own pup and my other dog guests, thank you for understanding! DROP-OFF/PICK-UP: Please note that I do have a full time job so evening drop off right after work is preferred. This gives me ample amount of time to get your dog acquainted to my me and my house. Hard drop-off and pick-up times please! :) This is easier for both your schedule and mine and doesn’t leave room for misinterpretation.
