Dog Boarding Apple Mountain Lake

“Walter and his wife were an absolute delight. The took excellent care of my senior Shih Tzu, Evie, over the holiday weekend. The moment I pulled up to their home I felt completely at ease. Their children were excellent with Evie and they had a beautiful and secure yard for Evie to enjoy. They were excellent at communicating and responding to messages. I truly appreciated that throughout the weekend they sent messages and photos to let us know Evie was doing well. Honestly, it was a huge relief to know that Evie was in excellent and capable hands. I highly recommend Walter and his family to anyone looking for someone to watch over their pet.”

“If I could give Leslie 10 stars ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ well I just did!! She is a dream care giver, treated my girl like she was her own. Leslie sent me daily reports (morning and evening!!) along with photos and even a couple videos. Allie had a wonderful vacation (truthfully couldn’t have gone any better) and we both are relaxed and happy. I am soooo thankful I found Leslie, I wouldn’t consider contacting anyone else. She is TOP NOTCH. ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️”

“Yzabella is one of the best dog sitters we have ever hired. She is very dedicated to the pets and shows them love. We can tell because our dog return back home after nearly 2 weeks very happy. While we were away, Yzabella has been staying in frequent communication with us, sending pictures and we can really tell that she show pets a lot of attention. She is very caring and we will definitely be back to her and hire her for dog sitting again when we need to go on another trip where we can not take our dog with us. Great job, really thankful for everything she did. 5/5 definitely! Thank you really so much from bottom of our hearts, Yzabella! See you again soon!”

“Erin was an incredible host for our dog, Coco!!! She went above and beyond in so many ways to make Coco feel at home, and kept me updated with photos and texts all along the way. While we were away we felt like Coco was having her own amazing vacation with all the walks, cuddles and special care Erin and her family gave her. Now they feel like her adopted family and we won’t hesitate to leave our dog with Erin again. Best Rover experience ever!”

“This was Blue’s second stay, and once again, we couldn’t be happier with the care he received. Thank you for taking such great care of him and treating him like part of the family. The updates and communication gave us peace of mind while we were away, and it was clear that Blue was comfortable, happy, and well loved. We truly appreciate everything you did for him and would absolutely book with you again.”

“Dana was amazing with our dogs! They were only there for half a day while we went to a wedding, but she sent plenty of updates during this time which I appreciated. She has a really nice backyard, and I could tell my dogs really enjoyed themselves. Dana was also super flexible with pickup and drop-off. I would book with her again if I were ever in the area.”

Brandi M.

“Gabby took great care of my Bonnie girl while we were away on vacation. She asked good questions during our meet and greet. I am so glad that she was willing to have Bonnie as the only dog in the house for the majority of the 2 weeks we were away. Bonnie doesn't get along with many other dogs, so when her stay overlapped with another dog that was there for a couple days before her, Gabby immediately let us know and was prepared to keep them separated. Gabby gave us frequent updates and pictures that helped reassure us that she was doing well. All of the instructions I left for her feeding were followed exactly as well. I am so grateful that we were able to enjoy our vacation knowing that Bonnie was being taken care of as if I were there myself.”

About: I’ve shared my life with dogs and cats for as long as I can remember, including adopted and rescue animals of different ages, personalities and needs. I have special experience caring for senior and medically fragile pets. I adopted a very elderly, sick dog who required frequent medication and attentive daily care, and I also cared for my cat through medical needs that required consistent medication. I’m currently a devoted dog mom to Graci, a two-year-old Labrador, and a proud grandmom to Zoey, a two-year-old mini Australian Shepherd/Corgi mix. Caring for animals has given me hands-on experience with walks, feeding routines, playtime, medication schedules, close supervision and helping pets feel safe and comfortable. I understand that rescue animals and senior pets may need additional patience, consistency and time to build trust. I’m also a retired federal professional known for being dependable, observant and calm in unexpected situations. I understand that trusting someone with your pet—and your home—is a very personal decision. I will follow your instructions carefully, communicate consistently and provide plenty of photos and updates so you can feel completely comfortable while you’re away. 🐾 Important Booking Policies & Rates 🐾 Please review my standard hours and specialized rates before booking: * Extended Daycare Policy: My standard daycare rate covers up to 10 hours of care. Any daycare stay that exceeds 10 hours will automatically be upgraded to my Boarding Rate for that day. * Puppy Care Fee: Because puppies require extra attention, frequent potty breaks, and constant supervision, a +$15 puppy fee applies per day/visit for any dog under 1 year old. This fee applies to all Daycare, Boarding, and Dog Walking requests. Note: Rover automatically calculates the puppy rate for some services, but if it doesn't apply correctly to your request, I will manually modify the total to reflect these policies before finalizing the booking. Thank you for understanding! “Continuing my professional development” sounds more natural and polished than “pursuing additional courses.” I’m currently taking a professional break while continuing my professional development, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of time to provide your pet with attentive, loving care. I’m home much of the day and can easily accommodate feeding, playtime, medication, cuddles, and your pet’s normal routine. Safety and comfort are always my priorities. I have one friendly Labrador who gets along well with other dogs and can be crated or kept separately if needed. My neighborhood is great for safe, leashed walks, and I carefully follow each pet parent’s instructions regarding feeding, medication, exercise, and routines.
