Marrero Small Doggy Boarding

Pet care experience

Dogs have surrounded me since I was a baby. My first best friend was a dog named Major, who stuck by my side as a kid until he passed. I've always had a place in my heart for all animals. When it came to owning dogs, I've always been the caretaker. I also knew from an early age the importance of taking them for walks, giving them playtime, and just honoring any dog's companionship. I was previously in school for Pre-Veterinary Medicine but had to put that on hold for financial and medical reasons. Any pet that comes here is home and loved like family. You can rest assured that this is a second home for them. Please provide a crate or kennel for your pet during your doggo's stay. Please make sure the crate or kennel is not too large but the perfect size for your pet. The crate or kennel will only be used when running an errand or if your dog is comfortable with it being open so they can go in and out as they'd like. Please inform me of any specific feeding schedule, medications, tips, specific requirements, or questions/concerns you have beforehand. Learning about you and your dog's needs can help me understand the dog and what the owner is looking for in a sitter before proceeding with a booking. I am immunocompromised, so I chose to continue working remotely. Please ensure you can wear a mask or facial covering during drop-off and pick-up. I have provided the available drop-off days and times below. You may review them to see if those times work for your schedule before booking. Feel free to ask me any questions that you may have. I look forward to meeting you and your furbaby (or furbabies)!

I have a fenced-in backyard with ample space for your pets to run around and relieve themselves. My two doggos would also be there to keep your dog company. I do frequent potty breaks throughout the day. Other than that, they are all free to relax and chill in the house wherever I am.

Information Shelby M. would like to know about your pet

It is essential to know a dog's temperament, whether they are house trained or not, their eating habits or feeding schedule, and whether they get along with other dogs since I have two dogs who live in my home.

A typical day

I have a lot of dog toys to engage them in play if they like. But I am also one to sit down on the floor or ground just to give them extra attention. Plus, if a walk is needed, I live on a cul de sac/dead-end street which provides a quiet and safe neighborhood for them to venture with me.

I currently work from home. Thus, I am with the dogs most of the day to provide attention and care. Your pets will be monitored, fed, and given outdoor breaks. I also live with my mother, who may help me tend to the pets when she gets home from work in the evening. Drop Off/Pick Up Available Times: Monday thru Friday: 7:30 AM to 8 PM *Disclaimer: If you have to drop off/pick up between 8 AM to 5:30 PM on weekdays please understand I will not have much time to discuss things in person since I will be on the clock. Saturday and Sunday: 7:30 AM to 8 PM You may message me to let me know you are on your way. This gives me time to get my dogs safely out of the way and to ensure I am ready for the drop-off or to have your pet's things prepared by the door for pick up. Please only call me on the phone if it is an emergency; with online school, working from home, taking care of the dogs, and doing things around the house - verbal conversation tends to slow me down or distract me. *NOTE: We have cameras that monitor and record both the front door and the backyard 24/7*
