Pet care experience
For Videos and Updates: Check out our Instagram @nuka_and_friends for delightful videos of our furry guests! Important Notes: - Drop-off and Pick-up Hours: Anytime between 7 am to 5 pm. - Not accepting males dogs that are not neutered, females welcome. - I don't accommodate dogs displaying dominant behavior in all situations, including play. My husband and I are dog lovers through and through. We currently share our home with a playful Weimaraner, and your dog(s) will be treated like family. We don't have children, so our pup is our world. Your dog(s) will receive abundant love, care, playtime, and cuddles during their stay. I’m strict about dietary habits. Dogs are welcome indoors and outdoors, including furniture. I enjoy snuggling with dogs in bed or on the couch. We have a spacious, fully fenced backyard with artificial turf areas and decks. The pool is also fenced for safety, but warm-weather swim lovers are welcome. Swim vests of all sizes are available for dogs getting acquainted with water. Work Setup: I work from home, ensuring constant supervision. Dogs have access to a large doggie door and the patio door, allowing freedom to play or rest. Sleep Arrangements: After the last potty break around 9 pm, all dogs are brought inside for a safe and cozy night's sleep. Our house is fully fenced (7ft tall wood fence), providing a secure environment for your pup. Additionally, the pool is fenced for added safety. Please bring your dog's food. No need for food bowls as we have plenty. Daily Schedule: 6 am: Breakfast and potty break to start the day. Throughout the day: Outdoor and indoor playtime, nap, rest, cuddle, etc. Evening: Dinner. All dogs come inside after the last potty call (around 9pm). All doors and the doggy door are secured. Your dog(s) are in for a magical time at Doggie Disney Land! 🤩
Reviews
Yena took great care of our dog. We were impressed with her initial meet and greet process and very happy with how caring, patient and flexible she was during a weeklong boarding. We recommend her highly.
Yena is great with my shy shepherd mix and my energetic Weim! Both dogs did great staying with her for an overnight board and came home so tired and happy ❤️
I recently started using Yena's services for my puppy dog, bringing her to doggy daycare once a week. I've been so pleased with the care and attention Yena shows Sweet Pea that when I was making plans for a 6 day trip, I immediately reached out to Yena about boarding my girl with her while I was away. I cannot overstate how happy I am that I made that decision. While I was away, Yena sent me photos and videos of Sweet Pea multiple times every day, just as she does for doggie day care. I could see from the images, especially the videos, just how much fun my girl was having. Yena, Sweet Pea and I are both ever so happy that our paths have crossed. Thanks so much! :)
Thank you Yena! Sophie had a great day!!

Information Yena P. would like to know about your pet
Any special needs for your dog(s) will be taken care of! Let me know of any special diets, food or medicine schedules. If you have some concerns or need me to be aware of your dog(s) behavior, I will keep that in mind and give am extra care. UPDATE: *** Please be fully honest about your pup. I know that your dog is your world, same for me. But safety of your pup as well as all other pups VERY important. Also please be fully honest about other behaviors. If your pup is not fully house broken, constant barker, chewer, etc. *** *** For new dogs boarding, I would recommend to do couple of day cares before the boarding besides meet and greet. *** *** Owners with 2 dogs: I get asked many times if there is a discount if 2 dogs. Short answer is no. I give an equal amount of love and attention to each and every dog who stays at my place. Feeding meals (also some dogs with special food), watching them at all time, correcting some behaviors (e.g. chewing, barking, etc), giving treats, etc it all goes the same per dog. Having 2 of your dogs doesn't change my work load and some times it's more. I assure you your dogs will be VERY well taken care of, get lots of love and care.***
A typical day
We have a huge fenced backyard for your pup(s) to run, play, and fetch! There is also a pool for dog(s) who love to swim- of course the pool is gated and dogs will be in pool only under my watch or me in it (Summer time or warm enough for me to go in). Typical day is like this: 6am: First potty time, breakfast (each dog will be fed separately). Dogs who eat later breakfast is fine as well. All dogs will be fed according to their parent(s) feeding time/instructions ALL DAY: Run, fetch, wrestle, snuggle on couch, drink water, lunch (only ones that are provided by their mom&dad), REPEAT, dinner (each dog will be fed separately and according to their parent(s) feeding instructions), REPEAT 9pm: Last potty call, all dogs go inside house, doggy door and all doors will be closed/locked. Over night: All dogs are free to sleep wherever they want (except owners who want me to keep their dog in a crate), living room couch, dog beds, and MY BED snuggle time! Most dogs sleep on my bed with me (I promise it is not forced!) Next days: ALL REPEAT! (If boarding) I will be sending you many videos and photos. Mostly videos because I think it shows better idea of how well your pup is here and how much fun dogs are having. I take many photos and videos because I cherish all moments with them!!
