Doggy Boarding (24-hours)

We acknowledge that entrusting your pets to someone else can be a tough choice. Therefore, we prioritize open and clear communication with our clients. Our pet sitters will keep you updated with regular reports, photos, and even videos of your pets' activities and well-being. Rest assured that your pets are in capable and caring hands! For special occasions and unique scenarios, our cozy haven offers personalized boarding services in our home.

 

However, we believe that pets thrive best in their familiar environment, surrounded by their scents and sights. Our goal is to spoil your furry friends with exceptional care right in the comfort of their own territory. Many pet owners understand that familiar places reduce stress and create a peaceful haven for their beloved companions while they are away. This method ensures a relaxed and content reunion when you return home.

 

Understanding the importance of sticking to your pets' routines, we are devoted to maintaining their daily habits just the way they prefer. By caring for them in their usual surroundings, we aim to support their schedules, alleviate any worries, and enhance their overall happiness and well-being.


Boarding Requirements 

An initial evaluation and submission of vaccine records, particularly for dogs under 2 years of age, are required prior to boarding or enrolling your dog in our doggy daycare services. A meeting will be scheduled at our local private HOA dog park or another agreed upon location, taking into consideration the size and breed of your dog. Please be advised that we do not conduct home tours for new clients due to the presence of other dogs in our home and the need to protect the territory of our puppy, making socialization with new dogs potentially a negative outcome. Our priority is to maintain a stress-free environment for our current canine residents and avoid introducing unfamiliar people and dogs that may cause unwanted stress or anxiety. Additionally, a half daycare session may be recommended before boarding to ensure your pet's comfort and ability to adapt in your absence.

 

Boarding rates vary from $55.00/night to $85.00/night, depending on the breed, size, and temperament of your dog. As a dedicated dog caregiver and small business owner who works from home, we are fully committed to meeting the needs of your pet. It is important to note that we have a 10-month-old Great Pyrenees puppy named Gunnar, weighing approximately 95lbs. He is a very gentle dog, and it is essential that your pets can interact peacefully with him. For this reason, we request a meeting at our private dog park and limit the number of dogs we host to 2-3 at a time. This ensures that each dog receives plenty of care and attention, as well as the opportunity to socialize with our puppy, while also helping to maintain our own well-being.

 

Dogs staying with us are treated like family and have the freedom to explore both inside and outside our home, without being crated. Our backyard provides a safe and enjoyable environment with a mix of concrete, grass, and a fenced-off dog play area for playtime. There's plenty of shade for resting, a sun deck for basking, and a separate sunny area. Indoors, our home is clean, comfortable, and engaging. Dogs needing quiet time can have a private room to relax and sleep in. During their stay, dogs will receive adequate exercise and rest. We take daily walks along the Arroyo Simi Walking Path in the mornings and evenings, in addition to playtime in our fenced backyard. When indoors, dogs can lounge on cozy couches or cool floors. Our home is air-conditioned, equipped with dog beds, a doggy door, and an open bedroom door for those who prefer to sleep with us. Dogs are encouraged to freely move between indoors and outdoors to alleviate any nervousness or potential confinement anxiety.
