K9 Handler/Trainer USMC VETERAN

Pet care experience

Hi, I’m Xena! I’m an obedience Trainer! Have you been finding it hard to find a GOOD and regular caretaker for your dog? If so, you’re talking to the right gal. I do boarding and training as a full time profession as well as teach Pet CPR and First Aid. You can rest easy knowing I will be available for your next trip. I also am able to take care of last minute bookings. PICK UP/DROP OFF services are available for clients interested, just ask. If your pet has e-collar training, I can maintain the training during the stay as I am an e-collar Trainer. Although all guest areas are fenced, your dog will be able to finally run as fast and free as they like in my guest areas, as well as play time with other dog friendly dogs if appropriate. My dogs Ventura, MONiCa!! and K9 Piper are kept separate from all other dogs boarding (they is friendly with other dogs though). When I am not home your dog will be kenneled in an AC/Heat controlled kennel room as well as overnight for the safety of the dog (ie so they don’t chew something without supervision‘s etc.) Your dog will love our 5 acres of open space! I currently do not accept human aggressive dogs (meaning they have a bite history) but inquire if you aren't sure if your dog fits this category. I do not require meet and greets but I'm happy to facilitate! I do require speaking to every potential guest on the phone prior to finalizing booking to get to know more about your pet. When your pet is with me, you only need to pack food, and their flat collar. I provide bedding if appropriate, bowls, toys, kennel etc. I look forward to meeting you and your dog! Please shoot me a message with your questions! EXPECTATIONS DURING STAY I require all clients to provide me with their direct cell number so I can send you pictures and videos during your pets stay (the platform messaging system takes too long to upload videos and photos during sending). I ask that all client make sure their emergency point of contact info is up to date on their profile. Food during the stay needs to be bagged in daily portions. Please include specific instructions for an medication. Dogs must have a standard, correctly fitting flat collar for their stay. Ecollars and harnesses do not substitute but they can be included. Pick up/Drop offs are conducted 8 AM to 9 AM and 3 PM to 5 PM. We will determine your pick up/drop off at the time of booking.

Xena is great! Daisy my Great Dane 7 month old puppy stayed for 2 days and 2 nights and came home happy. She had a yard to run in and play with other dogs. I will let Daisy stay again for sure! Thank you for taking such good care of my pup.

This place is awesome. Great facilities. Clean. It feels safe and dogs have ample space to play and run. Xena was amazing. I got pictures and videos. She was very communicative and understanding. Dante seemed like he had a blast running around during playtime. Thank you so much for taking care of our baby! We will definitely be back. ☺️
