Information Yonkyu J. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your pet is potty trained, crate trained, has any barking habits, or shows any signs of aggressiveness. I also require mandatory 30 minutes-1 hour daycare session (free of charge) as a part of the Meet-and-Greet for every boarding reservation longer than one day. Feel free to bring your own bed or crate along with your baby's favorite blanket. Some dogs experience anxiety, and it can calm them if they can stay in their own crate. Rest assured, I won't crate your pet more than necessary—only for bedtime or when I am away from home for short errands.

A typical day

We usually start the day with a walk around the neighborhood, letting your dog explore new smells and get comfortable. We’ll head to a nearby park where they can play fetch and burn off energy, often near the dog park if they enjoy being around other dogs. Some days, we switch it up with a longer outing to a nearby state park trail for a more enriching walk in nature. At home, we include interactive play like tug and other simple games to keep them mentally engaged and happy.

We had a great experience! Yonkyu was responsive, communicated regularly, and kept us updated with photos and videos while we were away. It gave us peace of mind knowing our dog was in good hands. I appreciate her trials to ensure it’s a good match. We'd happily book with her again!

Yonkyu took such good care of my little guy, I don't think he missed me at all!! He was with her for 3 weeks and she provided daily photos andvupdates on how he was eating and adjusting. My senior dog is a really finicky eater so I was really impressed that she was able to get him to eat. Highly recommend Yonkyu, we will book again!!

I had a great experience with Yonkyu through Doddy Care. Yonkyu was incredibly attentive, reliable, and genuinely caring throughout the entire time. Their professionalism stood out right away -they were punctual, well-prepared, and made sure to understand specific needs. What really impressed me was their patience and warmth. Yonkyu created a comfortable and positive environment, which made a big difference. I would absolutely recommend Yonkyu to anyone looking for dependable and compassionate care! PS: Piku used to be super excited to meet Yonkyu everyday

Yonkyu was great! She updated and sent pictures daily, gave my dog a good amount of exercise, and was easy to work with.
