About this collection
Your senior dawg doesn't just need a space; they need someone who notices if they're struggling to stand on tiles or if their meds need a little coaxing. I personally manage every transition—from navigating staircases to ensuring their orthopedic mat is in that perfect sun-drenched spot—so you can travel without worrying if their joints are aching.
Caring for the golden oldies is less about managing a schedule and more about tuning into their pace. Whether it’s a senior Beagle or an old soul who just wants to snooze in the sun, I treat their needs as my top priority. My home isn’t a kennel; it’s a sanctuary where 'cage-free' means they are free to exist comfortably.
How I Support Your Senior
- Assisted Mobility: My home is set up to minimize joint stress. I provide physical lifting for stairs and ensure non-slip mats are always underfoot.
- Medical Vigilance: If your pup needs medication, supplements, or specific pain management routines, I handle it. No skipped doses, no confusion—just consistent care.
- Gentle Socialisation: I understand that senior dogs don't always have the patience for high-energy puppy chaos. I curate the pack dynamics to ensure your senior has calm, respectful companions—or plenty of 'me time' if that's what they prefer.
- Dietary Focus: Senior metabolism is different. I’m comfortable managing specific feeding requirements, including soft chews for fussy eaters or specialized raw/BARF diets to keep their digestion happy.
Every decision I make, from the specific bedding to the quiet corners I offer for naps, comes from a place of respect for their age. They’ve spent their lives giving love; the least I can do is make sure they feel like royalty while you’re away. #Seniordogsrule #GentleCare
The Urban Dawg
I’m Devisri, and I don't just board dogs; I'm their Kahu. To me, every senior pup isn't a guest—they're family who deserves extra patience, slower walks, and all the sun-drenched naps they can handle.
