Information Sigrid S. would like to know about your pet

Our Boxer is very small dog friendly, but he has anxiety around medium and large dogs. He is not aggressive and is a big baby. He gets nervous around medium and large dogs, as he has been attacked before, and although we are working with him on his fears, we know he loves the little guys and probably thinks he is the size of a Maltipoo. Please let me know of any anxiety to noises, handling or touch sensitivity, treat or food aggression, and toy or bed domination on behalf of your dog. Our dogs are not possessive about their home, toys, or food at all.

A typical day

Our yard is very big and we spend a lot of time in the yard with the dogs in the morning and evening. There are balls, toys, outside dog beds, and we play with a laser pointer after dark. We do not take the dogs on walks when boarding with us.

Pet care experience

My love for pets and all animals began when I was very small. I grew up in a small village in Germany and have always been drawn to animals. My family always had cats and bunnies. I've owned many dogs and cats over the years and always treated them like family. My love for animals, especially dogs and cats, encouraged me to open my own grooming salon in December of 2010. Unfortunately I had to close it during the pandemic. I still groom and take care of many of my previous clients' dogs in my home. I can offer full-grooming services either in my home if I'm boarding your pet, or set up my mobile grooming station at your house if I am housesitting. I can provide many references if requested.

Sina (Sigurd) was so wonderful! My elderly pup was so well taken care of and had everything he needed. We will be booking again!
