About the Critter Cottage
We are not a kennel—we are babysitters. Mom and I live here together and have been boarding dogs in our home for nineteen years. We're licensed and insured, and will be glad to provide references. The dogs have the run of the house, and there's a nice big yard with a six-foot fence, lots of big trees and porches. We don't leave the dogs unattended. One of us is always here with them, and we don't put them in cages.
Because of the way we operate, the dogs are all together, so we can only accept dogs that get along well with other dogs, that are spayed or neutered, up-to-date on all their shots (including bordatella or "kennel cough") and housebroken. We screen carefully for temperament, and do not accept certain breeds such as Pit Bulls, Chows, Akitas, etc.
