Pet Boarding Barneveld

About: With over 15 years of dog experience and a genuine love for animals, I provide compassionate and reliable care for your furry friends. As a proud owner of a adorable 5-year-old Goldendoodle, I understand the importance of trust and dedication when it comes to caring for your pet. Let's give your dog the loving attention they deserve! My work schedule is from 2 PM to 11 PM, but I have a two-hour dinner break in the evening, giving me plenty of time to take your dog out, play, and ensure they get the care and attention they need. Your pet's happiness and well-being are my priority! I care for pets in the comfort of your home, ensuring they feel safe and loved while you're away. I'll give your pet personalized attention, follow their routine, and care for their needs as if they were my own, so you can relax knowing your furry friend is in good hands.

About: Animals have been an integral part of my life for as long as I can remember—from growing up around my family’s German Shepherd breeding and training work, to years of rescuing and fostering both dogs and cats. I can provide continuous supervision, regular potty and play breaks, and plenty of outdoor exercise tailored to each dog's energy level and temperament. My home currently includes one calm, dog-friendly resident cat, making for a peaceful, low-stress environment where guest dogs receive focused care and affection. I have worked with senior dogs and cats as well as puppies and kittens. I am experienced with administering medications and experienced with disabled dogs. I work remotely and am home full-time with a flexible work schedule. I can provide 24/7 care for your dog or cat. I am also available for walks throughout the day and week. While boarding in my home, I am able to be available for feeding or potty breaks as needed. I am able to watch the dog or cat to see what they need when. If I am providing drop in visits or walks, my schedule is flexible. I am available during the day and evenings.

“Shinduri is a fantastic sitter/boarder. Our dog is very well taken care of and enjoys the company of her and her dog. He also gets plenty of exercise with trips to the dog parks. We have boarded our poodle with her several times and couldn't be happier.”

About: As a pet owner myself, I understand how important it is to trust the person caring for your fur babies. I currently have my sweet girl Nova at home and am comfortable with pets of different temperaments and needs. I strive to create a safe, stress free experience while keeping owners updated with lots of photos and messages. Whether your pet needs playtime, cuddles, medication, or just a consistent routine, I’ll make sure they receive attentive care. I’m currently a SAHM with a very flexible schedule, allowing me to provide reliable care and accommodate a variety of pet care needs throughout the day. Your pets are treated like family! I have 1 cat in my home currently that is okay with dogs that visit. I maintain a clean, safe, and pet-friendly environment and carefully supervise interactions at all times.

“Evelyn is such a sweet lady and took wonderful care of my dog. My dog had a wonderful time at her house and became good friends with her dog, Tucker. She sent me picture updates daily which I very much appreciated! Will definitely request her to be sitter next time we go out of town.”

“Teddy stayed with Maggie and her family, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Maggie and her family are incredibly kind and welcoming, and Maggie’s communication was excellent from start to finish. She was also very flexible, which we really appreciated. We always feel confident that Teddy is well loved and well cared for when he stays with them. We will absolutely use Maggie and her family again and highly recommend them to others.”

About: Animals have been an important part of my life since I was a young girl cultivating a deep love for them. In addition to caring for my own cats, dogs, turtle, and guinea pigs, I've cared for pets belonging to family, friends, and other owners. I am passionate about protecting and caring for animals, and I pay close attention to every detail so that your pet receives the individualized care they deserve. I have varied availability throughout the week and weekend. Although I have another job, and have a family, I still have flexibility to do pet care. :-) I care for my own animals deeply in one of my top priorities is meeting their needs. I probably even go above and beyond for someone else's pet as I understand that someone else is putting their fur babies in my care. I appreciate good communication and I pay attention to details that a pet owner may have for me.

“Bethany was very responsive, good at communicating ,and sent lots of pictures! She took the time to make sure we were comfortable and was attentive to Cashew's needs. She was accommodating nervous pup who can find meeting new people challenging.”

“Cynthia was again so wonderful. I cannot speak highly enough about how caring and attentive she is with my dog and how communicative and helpful she is with me.”

“Would 100% recommend!! Zhuhan took amazing care of our 8 month old puppy while we were on vacation. The updates and attention to detail made it so stress free!”

About: I’m a full-time professional dog trainer and owner of Big Dog Status LLC, with over 8 years of experience working with animals, including 4 years in veterinary care. I hold a B.S. in Animal Science from the University of New Hampshire and am certified in animal CPR and First Aid. My background goes well beyond basic pet care! I specialize in canine behavior, including reactivity, anxiety, aggression, puppy development, and obedience training. I'm comfortable caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes, ages, and temperaments, including those who may need a little extra patience or structure. Whether your dog is a young puppy learning the ropes, a senior needing attentive care, or a dog with behavioral challenges, my goal is to provide safe, knowledgeable, and individualized care while you're away. I work Big Dog Status full time. So I am very flexible with the schedule and can tailor things to you and your dogs needs As a professional dog trainer with a background in veterinary care and canine behavior, I strive to provide more than your average boarding experience! My goal is to make your dog's stay feel like their own little vacation, with plenty of adventure, enrichment, and individualized attention. Dogs in my care enjoy daily hikes and outdoor adventures for a minimum of one hour, along with opportunities for structured play, mental enrichment, and training throughout their stay. Whether we're practicing leash manners, reinforcing basic obedience, exploring new trails, or enjoying some downtime, I tailor each dog's activities to their individual needs and abilities. Safety and structure are extremely important to me. All dogs boarding in my home must be crate trained and comfortable settling in a crate, as crates are used for safe, uninterrupted downtime throughout the day. I provide appropriate supervision, carefully manage interactions, and never force dogs to socialize. For the safety and comfort of everyone, I do not accept dogs with aggression or separation anxiety for in-home boarding. I keep my boarding numbers limited so every dog receives personalized care rather than getting lost in a large group. Owners can expect regular photo updates, clear communication, and peace of mind knowing their dog is being cared for by an experienced professional. When caring for pets in a client's home, I maintain their established routines, training expectations, and household rules while providing the same level of attentive, individualized care. My goal is simple: Your dog comes home happy, fulfilled, and well cared for, with plenty of adventures to tell you about!

“Min and Helen are kind, attentive, reliable, and genuinely caring. They send us wonderful photos and videos throughout Moxie’s stay, and it is always so clear from them how relaxed, happy, and comfortable she is in their care. We never have to worry about Moxie when she is with them because we know she is being loved and extremely well cared for. We cannot recommend Min and Helen highly enough — they are truly the best!”

“Caroline was an amazing host to my golden retriever, Lottie. Lottie was immediately excited to hang out with her, was sad to come home, and looked delighted in all of the photos in between. Thank you for taking such good care of my baby!!”

Lindsay V.

“Very nice and caring. Her and her daughter took both of my dogs on a nice walk and tired them out. They went above and beyond for my pups. Great sitter, I would book with her again.”

Jamie H.

“Marysia and Bryan did a great job taking care of Lyla. Sent lots of updates and their dogs were super fun for her to play with!”

Sara S.

“Thank you so much Daria for taking care of Eddie. I loved the pics you send. I hope you will consider watching him again sometime. You were great with our little guy!”

Barb M.

“Hannah was great! She was very flexible with letting us drop our dog off very early in the morning. She also sent us text updates and pictures while we were gone. We will definitely use Hannah again!!”

Caroline D.

“Roxie had a great time and made a lot of friends. She looked relaxed! Thank you for the updates and pictures! Great communication. Highly recommend!”

Cleda W.

“Nick provided awesome care for our pooch! Our dog, Hal, was so content with his new friend, that when I rang the doorbell to pick him up, he remarkably snoozed through it (and was happy and healthy, to boot)! Nick sent photo updates throughout the stay, and took Hal to the park and ran around with him. Nick's also at a convenient north side location, close the airport and 39/90/94, if you need to drop off your pet before traveling. All our thanks, Nick!”

About: I’ve grown up with dogs my entire life and currently have three dogs of my own, all with very different personalities and needs. I’ve put a lot of time into training and creating a successful multidog household, which has given me experience with everything from basic obedience and leash manners to reactivity, resource guarding and special-needs dogs. I’m comfortable following established routines, using the training methods and equipment your dog is accustomed to, and adjusting my approach based on each individual dog. I understand that not every dog is a social butterfly, and I’m happy to give dogs the space, patience and structure they need to feel comfortable. Most importantly, I know how nerve-wracking it can be to trust someone else with your dog. I’ll care for yours with the same attention and respect I expect for my own. As a registered nurse, I’m dependable, detail-oriented and comfortable following specific care and medication instructions. I am not only certified in human CPR but also Red Cross Dog/Cat/Pet CPR and first aide certified. I’m also used to communicating clearly, so you can expect plenty of updates while your dog is in my care I’m an RN with a rotating schedule, which gives me several days off during the week and plenty of flexibility to care for your pets. On my days off, I’m available for walks, drop-in visits, playtime and plenty of attention! I am home most of the time and my husband works from home so someone will usually be here. With the occasional instances of going out a few hours at a time. We do keep our dogs crated while we are gone and have cameras on the kennel/dog room to keep an eye on them. I know every dog has their own routine, personality and comfort level. I’m happy to follow your established routine and any specific instructions for feeding, walks, medications, crates or training. I have experience with multidog households, reactive dogs and special-needs dogs, so I’m comfortable adjusting my approach to what makes your dog feel safest and most comfortable. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages so you can feel confident your pet is well cared for while you’re away
