I do not have a yard but I am in the heart of Germantown so parks and paths are right outside, and I am walking distance to 3 different dog parks. I take your pets safety very seriously and will prefer that all dogs stay leashed and that any snacks, treats or food is never administered without owner approval first. My apartment will be puppy proofed, so shoes, clothes and trash will be inaccessible to all fur babies. I do have a patio that is open for all pets to roam at their convenience. Pets who tend to jump or have a history of being escape artists will only be allowed on the patio with supervision. The patio is a hit with my rover pups as they love to people watch and watch the world go by. All fur babies are allowed on furniture and beds unless otherwise stated by owner and I’m happy to continue training in my home based on owner’s preference. (Ex: if dog is not allowed on couch in their own home, I can continue that training at my house so your dog knows all furniture is off limits). I do provide a crate if your dog prefers to stay in a crate, as some pups feel more safe in there. I also have a house full of dog toys, poop bags and enrichment toys, but you are more than welcome to bring whatever your pups need to feel welcome! I live in a one bedroom, one bathroom apartment close to the sounds stadium, so fireworks are common. If your pup needs extra care to feel comfortable, please don’t hesitate to let me know! Medication or health requirements are welcome, as I’m used to caring for foster pups with anything from recent surgery, to allergies. My place stays stocked with peanut butter and pill pockets!
