Dog Boarding in Crystal River

“We highly recommend Stephanie, if your travels take you through Crystal River. She was responsive, accommodating, and provided our pup with a lot of TLC.”

“Louise and Alex are complete god sends. They took care of our simi like she was their own dog. Simi is a shy and timid dog. But to see her blossom over the last six months with Louise and Alex has been so comforting. She really came around this week.”

“I would happily recommend Linda to anyone. She watched my two dogs for three nights. I loved getting pictures and updates. The videos prove the dogs were extremely happy there. Her home was an hour from where I was staying, but I’d happily have driven twice that for the level of care she provided my babies.”

“Thank you for taking great care of Merry!”

“Did a great job taking care of my 3 dogs and 2 cats over the holidays!”

“Elizabeth is very attentive and a loving person when it comes to any and all four legged fur babys that you have. I would recommend her to everybody.”

“Joey and Cristin are the most wonderful couple, with a loving and safe home for my pup while I’m away! I always receive pictures of his stay, many of which are adorable shots of my pup snuggled up with their two daughters. They have a fenced in yard, are flexible for last minute changes, and very responsive. They have become our go-to puppy sitter and we couldn’t be more pleased! Highly recommend utilizing their services. 👍🏼”

“Candace and her husband were wonderful to our Bailey. They were caring and attentive the entire 5 days. We are so thankful to have found them to help take care of our fur baby when we are gone!”

“Deya was very communicative and on top of things. I would use her services again!”

“I was concerned my fur baby wasn’t going to come home with us she was so happy at Nola’s. I will use Nola again of course. She and her husband are the best. Thank you Nola”

“Angela was AMAZING with our babies. ? She genuinely loves watching dogs. She plays and interacts with them all day and night. Boscar and Zeus absolutely adored her. Her yard is perfect for dogs to play. It’s big and fenced in and there were toys for them to play with. I will definitely use her again to take care of Boscar and Zeus.”

“Kelly was the perfect fit for our Gordo! She was flexible for drop off and pick up, Gordo was relaxed and bathed when we showed up, he seemed happy to be there as if it were his second home ! Highly recommend Kelly and her family”

“Laurie sent pictures often. The dogs seemed happy when I arrived. They seemed to manage our two little ones just fine. Thanks for taking good care of our little ones!”

“Thank you SO much for taking such great care of our boys! It was such a relief knowing they were in good hands and a wonderful environment while we were out of state... Thank you!!”

“Maria is a wonderful sitter! It was nice for my pup Bruno to have another active dog to hang with and enjoy some activities. Communication was spot on at all times and pickup/drop off was easy!”

About: I have raised and bred dogs with my Grandfather since I was 5 years old. I bred Farm, Hunting, Shepherd, Working & AKC Show Breeds Ranging from Huskies, to Collies and Shelties, to Coon Hounds, Weimaraners, Bird Dogs like Spaniels. I have also owned a Show boarding and grooming Kennel for the last decade and a half up until shutting it down during the Pandemic to have more time to myself to travel and do things. I do still have a passion for caring for animals and do enjoy taking them in, taking them on my daily walks/hikes with me, showering them in attention, and helping owners in need. I am Retired I am physically active. I enjoy walking, hiking, exercise, and being out doors which especially helps with dogs that are rambunctious and have a lot of energy which needs to be burnt off throughout the day. I have a fenced yard with individually fenced off runs. I also have a Kennel Building I am renovating and will be adding new indoor/outdoor kennels to as the old ones were over 25 years old and in need or replacement. For taking in extended stay pets that are used to being kept outdoors or are crate/cage trained. As far as in the home it is client by client based. I consult with the pets owners. I try to keep the experience as stress free for the pet as possible. If they are allowed on the furniture and in bed at home nothing changes when they stay with me. If they are crate trained I try to maintain their home training regiment and play/feeding, potty/sleep routine as much as possible.

“Amelia has been a god sent for my dog, Jet. He suffers from bad anxiety, seizures and is going blind. We just moved to this area and he has already loved staying with her a couple of times. I get pictures, videos and updates regularly. This time I think he cried on his way home since he was having so much fun playing with the other dogs there. 😊”

“We are so happy for choosing Bonnie to take care of Lola! She is very kind, sent pictures and infos during the stay and they went for a lot of walks (Lola’s favorite program!)We highly recommend Bonnie!?”

“This dog sitter saved our vacation when another dog sitter didn’t get along with our 9 month old Labrador retriever and wouldn’t let him stay. They took great care of our baby. This was a very nice family. They took him out to play, and cuddled him at night. They were a godsend. I wouldn’t hesitate to leave my fur baby with them if I were you! It’s a plus they are a bilingual family Spanish/English as we come form a Miami and they made us feel at home.”

“Yaritza is a kind, loyal and friendly. She is a pet lover who I blindly trust with my pet. I have a 14 year old cat who likes Yaritza and her dog. I highly recommend her.”
