Dog Boarding in Bedford

“Farva boarded my Aussie for 2 nights. She responded quickly to my request. She got on a call quickly, and easily scheduled a meet and greet. She picked Sailor up and dropped him off- which was super convenient. She has a fenced in yard that Dailir was able to relax in. She sent plenty of photos and updates. I highly recommend Farva!”

About: I grew up in a dog-centric household, however I have taken care of my own dogs for the past 19 years. For the last 8 years, I've had the opportunity to foster dogs through different organizations, as well. It has been an extremely rewarding and educational experience with regards to learning about a multitude of different dogs and how best to deal with different dog personalities and what their mannerisms indicate. The foster dogs that I cared for ranged from puppies to senior dogs and included numerous different breeds. I've had dogs that were incredibly easy, as well as ones that were particularly difficult and high maintenance. These experiences have made me open to taking care of all types of dogs; I'm happy to help administer medicine, eye drops, insulin injections, etc. I've experienced it all! My schedule is flexible because I'm currently based from my home. This basically means that I'm available to provide care in whatever capacity needed beginning from late morning until the evening and any day that's necessary. I have two dogs of my own and my day heavily incorporates them into it. I made a concerted effort to do the same thing whenever I took care of foster dogs. Whenever a dog is my responsibility I make a point of giving them the care and attention that they require. I'm available to walk any pup beginning from late morning into the evening, including multiple times a day. I currently live in a house with 3 acres and a huge back yard with forest surrounding it, so it is not fenced. However, I'm more than happy to walk your dog if there's a fear that they will run into the forest. If there is a situation where your pup gets along with mine then it would be fine for them to hang out with us during the day if that's preferred for some company. Otherwise, we are able to separate my dogs and keep them upstairs while I care for your pup downstairs. I'm also open to dog-sitting for anyone going on vacation! Our house is set up to accommodate dogs visiting and staying due to my previous fostering, which is how I came to have my two current dogs. Also, I'm a firm believer in positive reinforcement to teach dogs acceptable behavior and manners, so no punishments that may traumatize or hurt the pup!

“Katharine was amazing! We have a 12 year old rescue who can be difficult at times so we were worried leaving her for the first time, but Katharine was very kind and understanding. She gave us daily updates and pictures, and she took absolutely amazing care of our furry little baby for the week we were gone! We will definitely be using her again!”

“We love, love, love Lily and her whole family, including Speedy. Our dog Flynn is so happy they’re running and playing and feeling like he’s at his home away from home. We can’t recommend Lily enough!”

“Jeff was so good with sending pictures of my dog and letting me know how things are going. I felt really safe with Jeff and my dog got a really good care. Thank you Jeff”

“Darlene took care of our dog, Nova, over Thanksgiving for 5 days. She had an absolutely great time with Darlene and her dog, Maggie. I received updates and pictures. We will definitely be back!”

“Kara is absolutely amazing! She's, like, the coolest and most caring person when it comes to pets. She’s always loves long walks in nature with her pets and just walks for fun. I'd totally trust Kara with my pets anytime because she's just amazing with animals.”

“Really great experience with Yumiko and Liz.I could tell they loved my three dogs during the meet and greet and they were so happy at drop off. Will definitely book with them again! She was quick to respond and sent a bunch of pictures during the weekend overnight stay.”

“Sophia was such a great caretaker and friend to Reynolds! She kept me updated with their plans and gave him so much attention and care. I’d recommend her to anyone needing to board their pet or sit for their pet in Gainesville and would definitely choose to board Reynolds with her again if we’re in the area!”

“Lily is an extremely responsible young lady who loves animals. She showed up on time and was always personable with my dog, a Pointing Grafton who definitely has an active personality :). I would highly recommend her for dog sitting.”

“Denise is an amazing dog mom and dog walker. She loves taking pets in while others are away on travels and gives them the best couple of days filled with walks, hikes, swimming, and a cute photo shoot of your puppers. She constantly takes them to doggy beaches and parks, and takes them on hikes that keep them napping for hours. 10/10 would recommend her to watch your dogs !! She is a loving and reasonable dog watcher and walker. Guaranteed you’ll get amazing photos of your dogs on a walk from her, she loves keeping you in touch with your dogs when you’re away. AMAZING !!!”

About: I have been caring for and grooming dogs and cats since I was 12 years old, and I am comfortable with both dogs and cats. I am always available to check in on pets, feed them, and walk them. And for pet sitting, I'm more likely available on the weekends. I have a big yard that my two dogs love to run around in. My dogs are friendly and can keep your dogs company if you want and if not I can separate the dogs and they won’t have to interact with each otherr, and I have crates if needed.

“Irene is absolutely fantastic! As our dog ages, we really want someone to pay close attention to him, manage his medications and of course makes sure he has fun while we are away. Irene delivers on all points and then goes above and beyond. She is sweet, caring, responsive, and sends lots of welcomed updates. We really cannot say enough great things about her!”

“Andrea was amazing! Our fur baby really is our little baby and had never boarded overnight before. We booked Andrea because we were moving and didn’t want to stress our baby out with all the activity and Andrea spoiled our baby the way we do—even let her sleep in her bed at night. Andrea knew I was nervous and even sent me pictures throughout her stay to put our minds at ease. Our baby was happy and healthy when we picked her up. Andrea was also super accommodating to our hectic moving schedule. She is the best! Highly recommend!”

“Although our dogs did not make a good first impression (sorry about the mess!), it seems they fit right in with Sam. Rivera wanted nothing but cuddles. Bailey, always suspicious of humans at first, warmed up quickly. It was great peace of mind to know they were in capable hands while we handled our hectic move!”

“Kyle was wonderful - responsive and thoughtful. We’ve got another stay booked with Rose, and have confidence in Kyle that he’ll take great care of her again. Highly recommend !!”

“Love them and highly recommended!! They have a yard which is perfect for dogs of any sizes. My babies had lots of fun there! Very responsible and sent cute pictures. I will definitely go back!”

“Benan and Justin were awesome with my pup while I was away on vacation. They sent photos everyday to keep us updated and made us feel very comfortable. When we returned, we could see that she had been well taken care of and she was super happy. I’ll certainly be booking them again!”

“Amazing with our pup Milo! We can tell he had the best time. Caitlin and Ryan were super communicative and made the process super easy for us. Thanks again!! We can’t wait to book again.”

“Nandita was awesome! She took care of my Luka over a weekend and the picture and video updates were constant. Luka seemed very happy during his stay. Him and Ozzy got along great. Nandita and her family were very welcoming and caring with my boy, he had plenty of snuggles and play time. He definitely got all the attention he constantly seeks at home. I was at peace knowing my Luka was well taken care of! I absolutely recommend Nandita as your next dog sitter !”
