Whatever makes the dogs happy.

Pet care experience

BASIC POLICIES, PLEASE READ: We do drop offs by 30 minute windows between the hours of 7am-7pm only. Only food for the stay is required. Additional items are welcome but we ask you please label them. There are no protection guarantees on owner items (beds, toys ect) unless you specify to keep these items away from social areas. Medications must have clear labeled text instructions either on the bottle or communicated via text/written instructions. Meet and greets are welcome, we recommend you schedule these in advance of your stay as we try to avoid scheduling then during busy periods. Here, it's all about what works for your pet. I have worked in the pet care industry for over 10 years. I have previously worked in grooming and veterinary facilities, as well as attending professional training with my own pets. Taking care of your pets in home is my full time job, so you know your pets will get all the attention they deserve. I can handle dogs of all shapes and sizes, and have extensive knowledge in other pets as well(Listed at the bottom). "Problem dogs" are welcome. Pets can enjoy staying in the comfort of our home with supervised access to a fully fenced yard. Toys, chews, and blankets are readily available to assure your pup stays entertained and relaxed. Professional grooming services available. I have experience administering medications, meeting grooming needs, and observing important dog behavior so I can make sure your pet is comfortable during their stay. I currently have three dogs and an assortment of other animals: a toy poodle named Kuzco, a bull breed mix named Rita, and a rottweiler named Mushu. Big or small, I love them all! Daily updates and pictures included. I understand that pets are family, and no matter who is looking after them they should be treated as such. Meet-and-Greets welcome prior to your first stay. Please note drop off and pick up are appointment only from 7am-7pm. Please feel free to ask me about my experience involving: Dogs Cats Small mammals (Mice, Hamsters, Hedgehogs, ect) Birds Reptiles and other exotic pets Caring for your pet is my full time job! From morning breakfast, to daily playtimes, till dinner and potty in the evening. We have a daily routine that is all about the dogs. Safety is the top priority while your pup is in my care. We have a 6 foot privacy fence, multiple areas for dogs to be separated if any personalities clash or while eating, and additional crates if your pup is crate trained. I observe closely to make sure personalities mesh in playgroups and that every dog is having a good time.

Skylar was awesome. She was very flexible with drop off/pick up times and communicated great with us throughout our girls stay. We realy appreciated that and the photos everyday.

I would definitely recommend to anyone looking for a sitter. My dogs haven’t told me yet but I do believe they enjoyed their stay. I have no doubt they were taken care of just from the text updates we would get.

Skylar was amazing! This was our first time boarding our dog with anyone, so of course we were a little nervous. However, Skylar made sure to keep us updated on how he was doing throughout his stay. After meeting her, I immediately felt at ease knowing he was in good hands. I would recommend her to anyone looking for the best for their fur babies!

I was very pleased with the care of my dog while away. He usually has some sort of skin issue when left for more than 3 days because his wrinkles aren't tended to as instructed. Sklar did a great job keeping up with his skin care routine and medications. He was very happy and content while in her care. I will definitely use this sitter again!
