Hello! My 12 year old son and I are looking for doggies to board! We have a 4.5 year old female cavalier king charles spaniel, and a 16 year old male manx cat. Our dog is super friendly and loves everyone and everything. Our cat basically just wants to be left alone and minds his own business, but is the best cuddler in the world! He is all 4 declawed and never bites. I do NOT have an actual yard. I live in a townhouse (I own) and have a fenced patio (appx 10x12ft) with a 3x6ft raised bed with real grass. (You can see the front of my house, and the patio and grass in my photos.) It would not be ideal for high-energy dogs, but I am open to it! I live less than 10 minutes from Fort Woof dog park at Gateway Park. I prefer smaller dogs (mostly because they don't take up the entire couch or bed!), but I am comfortable with bigger ones as well. Dogs are allowed wherever people are in my house, but if yours are not, I will follow your rules and keep them off. I do request that your dog is comfortable in a kennel or restroom with a baby gate, but that is really just as a last resort if there are any issues. I keep our dog in the restroom with a gate during the day while I'm at work, but yours can be out if you'd like and we don't have any problems! At night, they're welcome to sleep in my or my son's bed (or kennel or however you and they are comfortable).
