Your companion must be fully vaccinated, spayed/neutered, up to date on flea and tick meds, and not have active diarrhea/vomiting to stay at my residence, no exceptions. This is for the safety of all my canine clients and cleanliness of my home. Puppies will be quarantined away from all other dogs in the home to protect their fragile immune systems.

Some separation anxiety is normal, especially for the first couple of visits to a new dogsitter. However, I can NOT accommodate extremely anxious dogs that whine

and bark for extended periods of time. Dogs that

scratch at the doors or destroy property due to

separation anxiety are also not permitted. Please

notify Khalia beforehand of any behavioral quirks so she can provide the highest level of care for your furry

friend and determine if they will be a good fit.

Each overnight booking is for a 24-hour period. If

you arrive at 10am for example, check-out is at

10am on your check-out date. The rate for additional hours is $5 per hour.
8 hours of daycare are included in the flat rate. Each hour after that is $3 extra.
Daycare exceeding 12 hours is billed as an overnight stay.

Drop-offs before 7am are an additional $7, and pick-ups after 10pm are an additional $7. 

Here at Paws and Play we have very high standards that we hold ourselves to. We are not a commercial facility with hundreds of dogs that are loosely monitored, in fact we only accept 5 well-behaved dogs at a time and we find that sets us apart in this industry. We can keep a better eye on your pooch and tend to their individual needs in a much more private, intimate, and luxurious environment, hence “Private“ and “Posh.” Our four-legged clients receive highly personalized care (and frankly, the alliteration was too hard to resist.) We vet all of our furry clientele, have spay/neuter requirements, and provide a luxurious pet sitting experience in a spacious private environment similar to you and your pet’s home.

I pride myself in hosting small pack sizes so I can

keep a watchful eye on all the dogs, especially

those with special needs. There are never more

than 5 visiting dogs in my home at a time. I also

only accommodate micro, small, and medium sized

dogs to minimize accidental mishaps between

breed sizes. Your fur baby's safety is my absolute

TOP priority.

About My Home: My home has 5 bedrooms

with a 1500 sqft multi-level fenced backyard and is

located in the heart of View Park. I'm located near

two phenomenal dog parks and 3 great walking

parks for your pet's convenience. No kids, no

smoking, and no roommates; just space for your

canine companion to decompress and enjoy their

stay!

This is a valid concern! The only reptiles I service at home are non-venomous and under 12 inches long, any animals larger than that are strictly house calls. All reptile guests are kept in my completely detached downstairs guest quarters with no direct access to the main house. Your furry friend will never encounter any reptiles during their stay.
