Jeep was very well cared for - he came home and slept because he loved playing with Susan’s dog.

My pups came back happy and well. I received updates during their stay and the other dogs there seemed well behaved. I would use again!

Susan knows how to make a dog get comfortable in her home. I felt very secure that she helped my dog feel comfortable. ❤️❤️❤️

Safety, trust & environment

I have a fenced My dog is 6 and weighs 25lbs. He loves other dogs. Dogs must be up to date on vaccines. Will need vet info in case of emergencies. I’ve taken care of horses, sheep, goats, chickens, cats and rabbits. Am now dedicated to dogs and cats.

Pets

A typical day

It really depends on the dog. If the dog loves to be outside then the dog gets plenty of fresh air. If the dog just goes out for potty and wants in quickly, that is okay, too. The dog park is on my block so with owner’s permission we can visit daily. Must be up to date on all shots to visit park. Walking the dog is an option if the dog is well mannered on a leash. We play fetch, have chewies that are rawhide alternatives. Owners can supply favorite toys/ select chewies. I provide healthy dog biscuits for rewards.

Need to know if your dog(s) have special needs. How often you feed - and any other info that will keep your dogs content while here in my home. Vet info a must in case of emergency. I will get your pet to a vet if necessary with understanding I will be be reimbursed for costs. (Haven’t had to in my years of watching dogs).
