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!

She was friendly and very easy to work with. She sent updates throughout the visit. I would recommend her and will be using her in the future.

Shell did an incredible job to make us feel comfortable about leaving our two anxious and under socialized pups with her. It was our first time using Rover and we needed to make some extended travel, for an undetermined amount of time (it ended up being nearly two months), and all on short notice. She let us see the accommodations, let the pups stay for an extended trial play date to get comfortable, and was terrific with communication throughout the booking. We'll absolutely go with Shell again in the future and are done using the kennels / pet hotels we've used in the past.

I work from home, waking up early around 6 am and going to bed around 9pm. I do tend to get up during the night for the pups that need to be kenneled. I only kennel pups upon owners request.
