Dog Boarding Afton

“Danielle was great with my dog. He’s older and can be a bit extra but she was super. Send lots of pics and videos. Would definitely book with Danielle again- thank you!”

“I had never boarded my dog Phoebe at someone’s home so I wasn’t sure what to expect. Melissa was awesome, she was able to accommodate a four night stay with less than 24 hours notice. She’s extremely professional, before accepting the booking she requested vaccination records and actually read them as she required further clarification from the vet so I know that she doesn’t take just any random dog for monetary reasons. Clearly she cares about the health and safety of the dogs in her care as well as her own dogs. When I dropped Phoebe off and saw the fenced in yard and heard her dogs I knew she was about to have a good time, and she did. Highly recommend Melissa and would 1000% trust Phoebe with her again.”

“We have used Sharon a couple of different times and she always does a phenomenal job. She caters to Clancy’s whims making him a little reluctant to want to come home. She provides plenty of pictures to satisfy our concerns. We appreciate Sharon and will continue to use her services.”

“Joanna was veryyyy flexible with the drop off and pick up time!! At arrival she showed me where my Princess Bella would be staying and Princess had her own room for her stay. Joanna provided photos at request that made my trip more enjoyable knowing my baby was adjusting to her new surroundings. On pickup day Princess Bella was gifted with a homemade crochet bandanna. I will definitely be using Joanna in the future.”

“Sonia and Jeff are great dog sitters and very kind and caring people. Our dogs Benson and Chloe were well cared for and even accepted additional days at last notice for an emergency situation. We are grateful for them. They sent photos and wet in close contact with us while away. I highly recommend Sonia and Jeff.”

“Shekenia did an amazing job the entire week, sent photos, keep me updated.. Will use again without hesitation.. amazing person, amazing love for my dog.”

“Carol did a great job taking care of our dog. She was genuinely concerned for his wellbeing and sent pictures and updates daily, which helped put us at ease. We will definitely have Carol take care of our pup again.”

About: I’m a professional dog trainer with years of veterinary medicine experience and a bachelor’s degree in Animal Health and Behavior. I’m experienced with dogs of all breeds, ages, temperaments, and behavioral needs. Caring for animals is already a major part of my everyday life, so adding another dog to my routine fits naturally into my schedule. I live on a farm and care for multiple animals daily, including dogs, horses, poultry, and other farm animals. My days are already structured around feeding, watering, exercise, cleaning, training, enrichment, medication when needed, and monitoring the health and behavior of the animals in my care. As a professional dog trainer, I also understand that dogs need more than food and potty breaks. Dogs staying with me receive plenty of opportunities for exercise, play, enrichment, rest, and individual attention based on their age, personality, energy level, and normal routine. I am accustomed to planning my schedule around animals and making sure their needs are consistently met throughout the day. Safety is one of my highest priorities when caring for someone else’s dog. I am a professional dog trainer with years of veterinary medicine experience and a bachelor’s degree in Animal Health and Behavior. This background allows me to recognize changes in behavior, body language, stress levels, and physical condition that might otherwise be overlooked. Dogs in my care are supervised and managed according to their individual temperament, training, and needs. I do not assume that every dog should interact with every other animal simply because they are staying in the same home. Dogs can be safely separated, crated, rotated, or given individual play and exercise time when appropriate. Because I live on a farm, I take additional precautions when dogs are outside. Every boarding dog wears a GPS tracking collar whenever they are outside of their secure kennel area, providing an additional layer of safety and security. Dogs are never given unnecessary freedom simply because they are staying in a rural environment. My goal is to provide a structured, safe, and enjoyable environment where owners can feel confident that their dog is receiving knowledgeable, individualized care while they are away.

About: I’ve had dogs my whole life, and I’ve cared for dogs for friends and family for years. I’ve looked after all kinds of dogs, from big Rottweilers to tiny senior dogs near the end of life who needed to be carried down the stairs to potty. That range has taught me to be patient, to read each dog’s needs, and to adjust my care to fit their age, energy, and health. I sit small to medium dogs in my own home, and someone is almost always here, so your dog won’t be left alone for long stretches. We have a large, fully fenced backyard for safe potty breaks and playtime. My two pugs, Maggie and Bob, live here too and will be happy to keep your dog company if they’re comfortable with other dogs. I’m glad to follow your dog’s routine, feeding schedule, and any special care needs, and I’ll send updates and photos so you can relax while you’re away. I work from home two days a week, and my wife and kids are home every day since our boys are homeschooled. That means there’s almost always someone here with your dog, so they get regular potty breaks, playtime, and plenty of company throughout the day. I’m flexible with drop-off and pick-up times, so just let me know what works for you. Every dog has their own personality and comfort level, especially around other dogs and young boys. I take time to learn what makes your dog comfortable and go at their pace with introductions. I treat every dog like my own, with all the love and attention they deserve, so you can relax while you’re away knowing they’re in good hands.

About: Hi, I’m the person your pets think about when you’re gone. I offer personalized pet sitting, boarding, and training with a focus on routine, trust, and real connection. Every animal in my care is treated like my own—whether that means sticking closely to their home schedule, giving them space to decompress, or matching their energy with play, structure, and attention. I have hands-on experience with dogs of all temperaments, from high-energy and “chaotic” personalities to anxious or more reserved pets. I’m also comfortable working with exotics, including reptiles and other non-traditional pets—something you won’t find everywhere. My goal is simple: ➡️ Keep your pet’s world feeling stable and familiar ➡️ Build trust through consistency and understanding ➡️ Give you peace of mind while you’re away You won’t get one-size-fits-all care here. I pay attention to the little things—feeding routines, quirks, behaviors, and body language—because that’s what makes the biggest difference. Whether your pet is clingy, independent, vocal, or a little mischievous, they’ll have a safe, structured, and genuinely caring environment with me Pet care is built into my routine to ensure consistency and reliable attention. I work four 10-hour shifts each week at a veterinary hospital and have three days off for more flexible, hands-on care. On workdays, pets receive morning and evening care including feeding, exercise, and one-on-one attention, while I keep their routine as close to home as possible. On my days off, I’m available for more time, enrichment, and individualized care. My veterinary experience also allows me to monitor health, recognize behavior changes, and administer medications if needed—giving you extra peace of mind while you’re away. Whether in my home or yours, I focus on keeping pets comfortable, safe, and on their normal routine. In a client’s home, I follow all care instructions closely, including feeding, exercise, medication, and any specific routines, while keeping their space clean and low-stress. In my home, pets are treated like part of the household with structured care for feeding, potty breaks, exercise, and rest, adjusted to their individual needs and energy levels. Across both settings, I provide attentive supervision, enrichment, and calm companionship, with experience recognizing behavior changes and handling medications when needed. My goal is consistent, reliable care and peace of mind while you’re away.

About: My name is AnnaMarie, and I love dogs. I work from home Thursday thru Sunday and would love to spend some time with your pups. This is my way of NOT getting another dog even though I want to lol. I used to pet sit for my neighbors whenever they would go on vacation, and I have two dogs myself (one a 4-month old puppy!) and am very protective. I'm always very respectful in other's homes and would provide the best time for your pups. I am available for helping with dogs as I work from home and have a flexible schedule! I am accustomed to early morning, midday and evening walks and am very familiar with providing medication as one of our dogs was a senior with a variety of health issues. I now also have a 4-month old puppy so I understand all the puppy antics too! At my own house, I have a big fenced in backyard and a very walkable neighborhood for walk breaks. I also am able to crate your dog or my dogs depending on your dogs personality and what suits them best. In client homes, I am extremely respectful of your space and happy to to do walks, medications, clean up if needed, etc.

“Jeneen was attentive. She spoke very kindly to Ruby and Lizzy and encouraged them to eat and play. We got pictures and videos at each visit and she wasn’t in a rush but spent time with them. when I introduced Lizzy to Jeneen Lizzy hissed at her so during our time away, she allowed our Lizzy the space needed to warm up to her. By the end of the time, Lizzy was coming to Jeneen when called. Thank you for your care for our girls!”
