Hi, thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! This can be hard if Kimi goes off when you aren't looking. I would crate her/confine in a room or keep her the room you are doing chores in. You can use a leash or close the door. Hopefully this is something she will grow out of in a few years. It is a bit odd that she does this WHILE you are home as most dogs destroy things when owners leave out of anxiety. I think your issue is more easily solved with the above. I would also consider using a Kong to stuff with yummy things like peanut butter or give her something to chew on. Good luck
