Information Tonya V. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your dog has any special needs, or special aggressions we need to watch out for and be aware of. Is your pup timid around humans or other animals? Or do they love everyone? While we will accept dogs that aren’t crate trained for over night stays we do ask they are comfortable being left a lone for a couple of hours and not sleeping in bed with humans if they are a large breed!

A typical day

We live right next door to a popular park and you will typically find us info there 1-2 times a day. We have 3 kids that live at home so they also enjoy playing with the dogs outside in our big back yard!

Pet care experience

I have grown up with pets since I was a little girl. I’ve been a pet owner as well for most of my adult life. I currently have a small Morkie mix and the cutest little Labradoodle puppy that loves playmates. Caring for your babies is now my full time job (outside of raising my kids of course). We spend a lot of time playing outside in our great sized back yard, and if more exercise is needed we take walks around the big park next door. I have a fenced yard and two pets of my own. We typically go on two walks a day around the park right next door. If we don’t have time for that we play fetch out in our backyard!

Tonya is awesome! She took such great care of my 7 month old puppy. He was safe, so well taken care of and VERY happy during his stay :)

We had a wonderful experience! She accepted our booking on short notice and took great care of our dog throughout his stay. She was also incredibly flexible when unexpected traffic delayed our pickup. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing he was in such caring hands.

Took such good care of my pup when I was dealing with a family crisis. She was incredibly kind and flexible and my pup came home content and relaxed.
