Paw Pals Bed & Breakfast

Hi everyone - I have been with Dogvacay which is now Rover for more than 11 years now. I work from home and my hours for meet and greets, drop off and pickup is 7 AM to 6 PM, seven day a week and I can be flexible at times depending upon my schedule and other obligations. When you leave your babies with me, they become my babies. They get lots of hugs and cuddles, I only feed them what is brought for them and no table scraps. I also feed all dogs separately. I have 2 doggie doors with 24 hour access inside/outside. They must get along with other dogs and absolutely no aggression. I have a big back yard with high walls. Set up a meet and greet here at Paw Pals Bed & Breakfast! You won't be disappointed. I currently work from home 90% of the time which leaves me plenty of time to cuddle and play with your fur baby. I only take non aggressive dogs. I have a fenced yard with 24 hour access to a doggie door. I am very passionate about what I do and I get very attached to all my regulars. This is a second home to a lot of my pups. I look forward to meeting you all!

Shell has taken care of Finn many times, and she is always kind, caring, and dependable. She responds quickly to messages, which makes coordinating plans so easy. Finn always comes home happy, relaxed, and well cared for. We truly appreciate the wonderful care she provides and highly recommend her!

Shell was amazing! She was quick to respond, very professional, and very knowledgeable. Prior to booking with Shell, we did a meet and greet to see if we were a good fit. During the meet and greet, we all expressed our expectations. Once we both agreed that we were a good fit for each other, we book. From the time that we booked until the day of our babies arrival, the communication was consistent and knowledgeable. While my babies were there, Shell sent me updates and pictures. If she had any additional questions, she made sure to ask instead of assuming. When I picked up my babies, they were extremely happy to see me. But, in a good way. Not as if they had been unhappy. I would 100% recommend Shell to anyone and everyone.
