FAQ's

You’ve got questions, we’ve got answers

Here are just some questions we've had that we are happy to answer. If you have additional ones, we'd love to hear from you and get those answered for you to.

Do you require dogs to be fully vaccinated and on a flea and tick medication?

Yes. Please provide your pet records, so I can ensure they are fully vaccinated. It's important to have them on a flea and tick preventative to keep ticks at bay. We live in a neighbourhood where there are deer and there are ticks. We also require a bortedella vaccination that is current to keep dogs protected.

Is my dog ever let off-leash?

The only time your dog will be let off-leash is if it's in an enclosed area that has a secure fence to keep dogs safe.

Who will be walking my dog?

There is only one walker here at Camp Morrowfield. You'll always get Carly. She has no employees. Sometimes her neighbour or husband will join on a walk, but Carly will pick up and drop off and is the one engaging and working with your dog.

When my dog boards with you, what does a typical day look like?

I board a small group of dogs. All dogs are fully vaccinated and friendly with dogs. They have free range of the house and when in the house we spend most of our time on main floor or on deck. We will do a bathroom break, then have breakfast followed by a morning walk, mid-day outing and a pm outing. Sometimes dogs or puppies need more pee breaks and that can be done too. Dogs are different and enjoy different things. Let me know what your dog loves so I can make it a most enjoyable stay for them.

Where does my dog sleep when they board with you?

A lot of dogs will sleep in our bed. We have comfy couches and some memory foam Orvis dog beds they are welcome to sleep on. I do have one medium crate that can be used if your dog uses a crate. Feel free to bring their beds and anything you think may make their stay more enjoyable.

Can you administer medication?

Yes this is not a problem, and free of charge when boarding.

FAQ image

Can you take last minute walks/boarding?

I will always try my best to accommodate. Of course advanced notice is preferred, but if you're a busy individual with an ever changing schedule, I'm happy to work with you.

FAQ image

How long have you been working with dogs?

I grew up with dogs and then owned my first dog as an adult in 2009. I also owned and operated a business in San Francisco from 2009- 2016. so 20 years+.

FAQ image

Where do you take the dogs when doing outings?

Where do you take the dogs when doing adventure outings? A: We are located in Squirrel hill and a 5 minute walk from Frick Park and 10 minute walk from Schenley Park and we love both those options. We like to hike, and visit the enclosed dog park, but also like to switch things up and when things are too muddy or park is not an option due to weather conditions etc, we will do neighbourhood walks. If there is more time to venture elsewhere, we consider other options too. We have a large enclosed backyard and another faux grass enclosed yard across the street we play at as well.

FAQ image

How do I know how my dog is doing when they are with you for boarding or walks?

I will always send and update and will include pictures so you know how your loved one is doing and the fun they are having.

FAQ image

What if my dog is sick? Do I still have to pay for walks?

We realize that things like this happen. If your dog is sick, we don't want them to get others infected.

FAQ image

Is there a trial period for my dog?

Yes. I like to ensure that all dogs are a good fit for both the dogs in my care and myself. I will give a 2 week trial at our regular rates and see how things go. If your dog is a good fit, I'm happy to reserve a spot for them. If your dog is not a good fit, I will let you know. I reserve the right to cancel walks if your dog turns out to be not a good fit at some point in the future.

FAQ image

What is your cancellation policy?

If you give 48 hours notice, I will move your scheduled day to another day if possible. Boarding must be cancelled with 3 days to avoid a cancellation charge.

FAQ image

How many dogs walk in a pack?

This varies. There could be 6-8 dogs depending on the day.

FAQ image

How do you control that many dogs?

I bring high value treats with me to get dogs attention. I do not use prong or shock collars to keep dogs under control. If your dog is a puller, an easy walk harness is a great tool to make them more manageable.

FAQ image

What If my dog becomes sick while I'm on a trip or out for the day?

I get to know the dogs really well and can often tell if something is off, or not right. I would definitely get in touch with you to inquire about your dogs health, and speak about options for your dog.

FAQ image

My dog has never walked in a pack before. How does this work?

If your dog is good with other dogs, it's easy to integrate them in a pack. I introduce the dogs of the pack to your dog one by one, and once they are comfortable with that dog, we introduce another. When they are good with the dogs, we go for a walk/play and usually that is just the beginning of having a great group of friends.

FAQ image

My dog is a resource guarder with toys, could they do adventure outings?

We do like to bring toys like balls to the park, so if we stop in the dog run for play this may present an issue. Your dogs should not have resource guarding issues if they are with our adventure outing.

FAQ image

What do dogs do when doing Doggy Daycare with you?

Doggy Daycare is fun! Your dog joins the outings and does a walk/hike/play. You'll get updates and pictures of our fun. They come home tired!

FAQ image

Who lives in the household with you?

I have 2 French bulldogs of my own that get along with all dogs and have also grown up with a cat. I also have a husband named Wes that will come walking with me at times and 2 boys (10 & 14) that have grown up with dogs and love them.

FAQ image

How do you group dogs?

Dogs are usually grouped by size and energy level. There are exceptions though as some dogs have preferences.
