2-Hour Free Trial Stay

I offer a free two-hour trial stay for all new dogs before booking longer visits. This gives your dog a chance to get comfortable with me, my home, and my dog, Boba. It also helps me make sure Cozy Casita is the right fit for your pup.


Trial Stay Hours: Tuesday–Thursday, 7–9 a.m., with additional Wednesday availability from 4–6 p.m. By appointment only.


What the Trial Stay Is For

The trial stay is a short visit where your dog can:

  • Get used to me and my routine
  • Explore the environment
  • Meet and spend time with Boba
  • Feel comfortable away from home

It also gives me time to see how your dog does in a home setting and around another dog.

When You Arrive

When you get here, I’ll meet you outside with your dog.

We’ll:

  • Go over your dog’s needs and routine
  • Talk through any questions you have
  • Make sure I have everything I need

To keep things calm and consistent, clients do not go inside the house. All drop-offs, pick-ups, and conversations happen outside.

House Policy

For safety and comfort:

  • Only dogs are allowed inside
  • People do not enter the house
  • Any questions or check-ins happen outside

This helps keep the space peaceful and stress-free for the dogs.

During the Trial Stay

While your dog is here, I’ll help them settle in and keep a close eye on how they’re doing.

I’ll be watching how they:

  • Adjust to a new space
  • Interact with Boba
  • Handle being away from their owner
  • Follow basic routines

After the Trial Stay

When the two hours are over, I’ll meet you outside for pickup.

I’ll let you know:

  • How your dog did
  • How they got along with Boba
  • Whether they seem like a good fit for Cozy Casita

If everything goes well, we can move forward with future bookings.
