Thank You for finding my profile! I’m cautious but remaining open during COVID to help those that need it. I will adjust rates based on situation. We are on Cary/Raleigh border near SAS, quick easy access to airport and 40, ,newly retired (retired young!) , have a well-loved pet friendly house, a fenced in yard, and love both dogs and cats. We are available for boarding, doggie daycare, and in-home visits to let out your dog or care for your cat or caged animal. I absolutely love little rodents too. Our daughters always had them! We have always owned indoor cats too - they all lived spoiled long happy lives! So cat care is familiar to us as well. I was a nanny for 25 years here in this house -I have amazing references!!! And am a caregiver by nature. We have a 5 year old 48 pound shepherd, mixed-breed female dog , Lily Mae. We have a large, safe , flat, shady, fenced in yard. We use no chemicals on the lawn. House is protected by CPI. We have lots of time for loving dogs in our home and for loving and looking after your pets in your home. I have a GREAT base of regulars here for both boarding and doggie daycare. I try to keep it at 1 or 2 dogs in addition to my own. . We are here to love and care for your dog and won’t rush through our meet and greet - we try and gather as much info as we can for your pup and spend the time that you need. I encourage trial daycare or trial overnights and try and schedule those when you need me and also when regular dog might be here to meet. It’s all about safety and comfort and fun! Note: if pick up time is later than drop off time for boarding , I’d charge a day of doggie daycare in addition to the boarding fee. I also usually reduce my Rover fees after the initial visit - the initial visit is a time where your pet and I get to know one another and that requires more of my time than subsequent visits. Also, I truly don't keep the STRICT cancellation policy once we establish a relationship - I understand things change. I just like to establish trust and rapport with the client and not turn away my regulars to accommodate someone that is going to cancel on me last minute. I'm very accommodating on pick up times and drop off times and I can transport your pet (pick up or drop off your pet) should that need arise. I’d love to hear from you- each need is so very different so it’s best for us to talk it over, have a (REQURIED) meet and greet. We want nothing but the very best for your pet. We want them to want to come back!! The gang that rotate through here all get along so well. I screen my clients carefully for good matches and great care for your pet. I have a questionnaire/chart I keep on each pet and I send pictures and updates to you (probably too) often unless you specify otherwise ! Take a look at my photo gallery! Hope to hear from you. I do always encourage a chit chat on the phone before a meet and greet for safety and for more probability that it would be a good match. I have to be very selective as to which dogs I watch in order to keep this a happy / stress free place for your pup. Openness and Honesty are my forte - it's a wonderful base for a sitter/client relationship. I have a camera in the house should I leave the house I monitor the pups - it tells me if they're resting and comfy.
