🎄🐾 CHRISTMAS WEEK BOARDING UPDATE! 🐾🎄

I know it’s only October, and not everyone has their December schedules finalized yet, but I wanted to keep everyone updated!

At this moment, I have ONLY 3 KENNELS LEFT AVAILABLE for Christmas week!

Christmas week is one of my busiest holidays, and I’m already seeing everyone checking in early before I go on maternity leave to secure their spots! Cause once I am on maternity leave and you try calling during my leave to reserve spots for December I won’t be able to since I will be out of work and not around my computer. Once those last 3 kennels are filled, I cannot guarantee any additional availability.

If you already have a boarding reservation but your plans have changed and you no longer need it, please let me know as soon as possible so I can open that spot up for someone else. Unfortunately, I’ve had a few no-shows lately this month and month before, and during such a busy holiday, every reservation and kennel counts.

I just want to make sure everyone has the opportunity to plan ahead! Please don’t wait until the last minute, because I may not have any openings left when you’re ready to book.

Thank you all so much for trusting me with your fur babies, especially during the holidays!

Only 3 kennels currently available for Christmas week! Message me or call if you need to reserve your spot! I will keep you all updated if I get filled up or how many kennels I have available left! ❤️

📢🐾 IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT: NEW BOARDING DROP-OFF & PICK-UP HOURS! 🐾📢

When I return from maternity leave, there will be PERMANENT changes to my boarding drop-off and pick-up hours. Please read carefully and make note of the new schedule!

🕗 Morning Drop-Off/Pick-Up: 8:00 AM – 9:30 AM
🕓 Afternoon Drop-Off/Pick-Up: 4:00 PM – 5:00 PM

These will be the new hours moving forward and will remain in place permanently.

As many of you know, I will be returning to work with a newborn, and I will need to adjust my schedule to accommodate my baby's needs. Between getting the baby ready, installing the car seat, and making trips back and forth, it will be much harder for me to stay late at the clinic or make extra trips. My baby will need to eat, may get fussy, and I will need to be able to get home in a timely manner.

PLEASE NOTE: If you are unable to pick up your pet by 5:00 PM, you will need to wait until the following day during the designated hours. I will no longer be able to accommodate late pick-ups, so please plan accordingly!

You are welcome to drop off or pick up your pet during either of the designated time windows. However, I ask that everyone please give me an EXACT arrival time ahead of time. This is extremely important so I can plan around my newborn's schedule and make sure I am available when you arrive.

I appreciate everyone's understanding and cooperation as I adjust to this new chapter of life while continuing to care for your fur babies! These boundaries are necessary for my family, and I appreciate everyone respecting them.

Thank you all for your continued support and for helping make this transition as smooth as possible! Please save this post so you have the new hours handy!

📢 GROOMING APPOINTMENT UPDATE 🐾

I wanted to let everyone know that I will be stopping grooming/trimming appointments after October 17th.

If you currently have an appointment scheduled after the 17th, I will be working on moving appointments up where I can. I will personally reach out to anyone whose appointment I’m able to move.

I will still be doing nails, so nail appointments will continue as usual! If you have your dogs scheduled after the 17th for nails I can do those but trimming/grooming wise I am stopping on the 17th.

Thank you all so much for your understanding and for trusting me with your fur babies. And I will see everyone when I come back in December 14th. ❤️

So, things are starting to happen with my body, and my nurse said I need to keep a close eye on things in case I start having contractions not saying I am dealing with labor or contractions yet I just need to look out for those signs. Yes, I am still early, which is why I need to be extra careful and pay attention to any changes from here on out.

Because of this, until further notice, I’m not going to be setting any more appointments, and I may have to cancel some of the ones I already have scheduled. I’ll see what my OB says at my appointment next week and go from there.

I’ll keep everyone updated and posted on what’s going on. Please keep us in your thoughts as we take things one day at a time.

📢 GROOMING SCHEDULE UPDATE 🐾

I wanted to give everyone a heads-up that my ankles and feet have really started swelling up, and they are becoming tight, painful and uncomfortable when I’m standing or walking. Because of this, I am limiting my standing and the number of grooms I take each day so I don’t make things worse.

Going forward, I will be looking at my October appointments and spreading them out so that I am doing ONE GROOM PER DAY. This will give me the ability to rest between appointments and hopefully make things more manageable for me physically.

For households with multiple dogs, I will also be doing one dog per day rather than grooming multiple dogs from the same household on the same day.

I truly appreciate everyone's patience, understanding, and flexibility while I make these changes and updates every time. I love taking care of your pups and want to continue doing so and listen to my body at the same time.

Thank you all so much for understanding and supporting me! 🐶🐾❤️

October boarding reservations.

🐾 Hello everyone! 🐾

As October is quickly approaching, I wanted to give everyone a little heads-up regarding boarding reservations throughout the month.

Since I’ll be on high alert the entire month in case I go into labor early, I’m going to make a small change to our checkout process. When you drop off your fur babies for boarding in October, I will have you prepay for their stay that day.

The reason for this is that I am currently the only one who handles and operates checkouts. If I happen to go into labor unexpectedly, having everything prepaid will allow my assistants to simply come in, take care of your fur babies, and let you head home without having to worry about payment or waiting on me.

This will make things much easier and less stressful for everyone, especially if I’m suddenly unavailable and my assistants would otherwise need to contact me regarding payments and checkouts.

I truly appreciate everyone’s understanding and patience as we prepare for this exciting time! My priority will still be making sure all of your fur babies are happy, safe, and well cared for while they’re with us.

Thank you all so much for your continued support! 🐾❤️

📢 Boarding Reservation Update 🐾

Since I currently don’t have any boarding reservations scheduled after October 19th, I will stop accepting boarding reservations after October 19th.

I will be back and accepting boarding reservations again on December 14th and spots are getting filled up for Christmas week just a heads up. So once I go back the 14th you can call to get your spot for Christmas week. Right now I got three spots left for Christmas week.

In the mean time during my absence I have been recommending these two places to incase you need boarding for November.

Lazy H Ranch Kennels in Dodge City 620-255-1790
K-9 Corral in Cimarron 620-855-0484
These places may ask for vaccine records if you need a copy of your vaccine records please let me know I do have copies. Or if I recently updated vaccinations for you and you have a copy of your records give them that.

Thank you everyone so much and dealing with my crazy schedule and life and continued support!

Sasha
🕊️1/23/23 ~ 9/8/26🕊️

It is with great sadness that I share that I received the heartbreaking news today from a client that they lost their precious Sasha. 💔

Sasha was the sweetest, most gentle soul, and she was so very loved not only by her family, but also by me and my staff here. She had a way of putting herself in a very special place in our hearts, and it is never easy to lose a client who has become so much more than that.

Sasha touched all of our hearts in such a special way. We feel incredibly blessed to have known her, cared for her, and shared in the love her family had for her.
She will be deeply missed and will always hold a special place in our hearts.🐾❤️

Her last groom…makes me so sad that I won’t be able to make her pretty anymore. Hard not to cry when I lose a client they mean so much to me and hold a special place in my heart!

Sending so much love, comfort, and heartfelt condolences to Sasha’s family during this incredibly difficult time. Rest peacefully, sweet Sasha. 🌈🐾

Hello everyone!

I wanted to give everyone a little update on my grooming schedule. I originally thought I was going to be able to keep grooming until October, but with my Braxton Hicks getting more frequent and my lower back hurting more, I really need to start limiting my grooming now until I have my baby.

It’s getting a lot harder for me to stand for longer periods of time without my back hurting, and the Braxton Hicks have started interrupting my grooms as well. As much as I would love to keep my normal schedule, I need to listen to my body and slow down a little.

With that being said, I am going to start reaching out to everyone who I had scheduled ahead of time and spread the appointments out. Instead of doing one or two grooms a day, I will be limiting myself to one groom a day from here on out.

I will absolutely work with your schedules if there is a certain day or time that you aren’t available. I just need to be more careful about how many grooms I take on each day so I don’t overdo it.

Thank you all so much for being understanding and patient with me during this time! I truly appreciate every single one of you and your continued support. ❤️🐾
