Adventures and plenty of snuggles!

Pet care experience

"Ruffin' Around" is exactly what your four-pawed loved one will be doing while staying with us! I provide your pet with a structured and lengthy hike, walk, or dog park adventures. As much as it is good for them, it is great for me... A tired pup is the best behaved pup! I have 10 yrs of experience working with dogs. I went to school to become a RVT (Registered Veterinarian Technician) and worked in an animal hospital as well as a doggie daycare for three years. While working at the doggie daycare I fell in love with the idea for caring for dogs while their parents were away. I wanted to find a way to provide my own personal touch in the comfort of a home. Dogs are my passion and I love that walking, boarding and caring for pups is what I do full time. My partner Cyrene left her job over a year ago and now does this full time with me as well. We love being able to give your dogs our full attention and make sure they are getting the love, exercise and as many snuggles sessions as they need! We have a high energy pup named Devvyn and she LOVES that she gets to meet new friends to play with each week. She is very socialized and gets along great with every type of dog whether it is her chihuahua friends or her Great Dane friends. We cater to any dogs needs, big or small, young pup or the older and wiser, high energy dog or the ones that like to just sunbathe. We are very active gals who love the outdoors! I have a huge backyard, great for sunbathing dogs and enough room to throw a ball. I am excited to have dogs over for a day, or to join us for our outdoor activities or to come and have a slumber party! Cyrene bakes fresh dog treats of all kinds to spoil your pup while they're here for their stay. *I am unable to offer boarding services to unaltered dogs.* Amenities and activities at our 5 star resort include: - One hour walk, hike and/or dog park adventure everyday - Fresh baked treats - Accessible back yard - Plenty of TLC, after plenty of Ruffin' Around! - Follow your pets stay on our Instagram! We also offer: Baths Nail trimming About the yard: I have a very big backyard that is fully fenced in. My dog has been known to be able to escape from crates but hasn't been able to escape the yard, which to me makes it escape proof. It is big enough to throw a ball around and to play tag with other dogs. My experience administering medication: I am comfortable administering all types of medications, whether they are oral, Injectable, topical, or any other types. I also know a couple of tricks for those hard to pill dogs.

We’ve been anxious to leave our quirky rescue pup and travel, but Claire was amazing with our dog and they hit it off right away. She was great at reading our dog’s comfort level and our dog came home happy and full of energy. Definitely booking again.

Claire was super responsive, easy to work with, and was very understanding with my elderly dog's special needs! Jada had a great time with her and I would 100% book with Claire again!

Information Claire F. would like to know about your pet

I want to know a lot about your dog. I want to know feeding instructions, medication instructions, little quirks, daily routines. Good on or off leash, likes to swim? I want to know your dog just as well as you know your dog. I don't have any breed preferences or any breeds that I wont take.

A typical day

Here's where we'll take our walks I like to go around Lake Merritt, Lake Anza, Redwood Regional Park, Golden Gate Park, Ocean Beach. Anywhere that dogs haven't been banned in general we will go. I always make sure it is safe for our four footed friends. Your dog's sleeping arrangement Your dog can sleep nearly wherever they want. If they are used to sleeping in a crate, we can do that. If they like cuddling, like my dog we got that covered. Usually when I guest dog comes to spend the night they sleep on a dog bed at the foot of the human bed, but we customize guest by guest. Time I'll spend with your dog Like I mentioned before, both my partner and I work from home. I take walks, hikes, and or swimming adventures on a daily basis. If your dog is older or needs more down time, my partner will supervise while I am out on our adventures.
