Dog Boarding Black Hammock Island

“We've known Kelly for over 9 years, we knew our fur kids would be in great hands staying with her. She treated Lakota and Koa as if they were her own pets. Lakota's allergies flared up while she was staying with Kelly, Kelly instinctively treated her issues and made us aware of what was happening. The kids will be going back for more farm vacations in the future, in fact their next stay is only weeks away.”

“Sayla loves every trip she has to Shannon's. She plays so hard it takes her a whole day of rest to recoup! Wonderful to have someone to trust for our girl.”

“Wendy was everything we hoped she'd be. She gave us multiple updates on our dogs status and multiple pics per day. I would use her again without hesitation.”

About: What sets me apart is my lifelong experience with dogs and my commitment to providing exceptional care. I've cared for dogs of all breeds, ages, and personalities, including fostering and rescuing dogs from neglectful situations. Through hands-on experience and self-education in canine behavior and training, I've developed the skills to understand and meet each dog's unique needs. Whether caring for playful puppies, active adults, or senior dogs, I provide a safe, loving, and dependable environment that gives pet owners peace of mind. Im currently unemployed and have a great support system (friends and spouse who LOVE dogs.) Not tied to many commitments, leaving me free to be present & dog sit day/night. The only times im gone are to do errands. Which isnt more than 2 hrs at a time. Available Mon-Sun for nights and days :). Your pets safety and quality of care is very important to me. Just to describe some of the perks of boarding with me. I have a large yard thats fenced in. A spare bedroom that theyll sleep in/ or be crated in. Very spacious home they can roam freely. Theyre allowed on furniture. Can socialize with my two loving sweet dogs that are trained. Including a safe neighborhood for walks. If pet parent is not comfortable with their pup being around my pets. Ill ensure they remain seperated, as i have the ability to do so with dog gates in the home, if need be. I also have cameras to always keep an eye out (although physically id be present).

“Hannah was really great with my senior dog and cat. She had a calm and warming presence about her and my animals were well taken care of. Will definitely ask for her on the future!”

“My pup, Goose, is a rescue that I got from a hoarding situation back in November 2021. I think in the time I've had him, I've left him twice with people who I trusted but didn't live in the home. This is the first time I've ever had to leave him with someone he's never met so I was super nervous. Patti did not disappoint at all! She sent me frequent updates on how Goose was adjusting and continued to send pictures all weekend. We definitely will be using Patti again!”

Summer M.

“I always prefer a sitter over a boarding facility because I hate the idea that my dogs will be locked up all day. Well, we could tell by how tuckered out they were that they had ALL THE FUN at Larry’s place! He sent pictures of them playing which really put my mind at ease while out of town and he had their things all ready to go at pick up. Thank you, Larry! Bowser and Peaches say thanks too!”

Alexandra M.

“Andrea was great! I could tell the Breck loved staying with her. She was giving me updates and sending pictures all throughout his stay so I always knew how he was doing. I highly recommend Andrea for a sitter”

James P.

“This was the first time we left our dog with a sitter. We have always had someone house and dog sit. Megan was kind and friendly. She kept me updated with a messages and pictures. Her dogs are very sweet and made my dog feel comfortable. When we picked up our girl she was calm, so I knew she had a wonderful time. Thank you Megan, you definitely made it a lot easier to leave my Cherish 😍 we will definitely be using you again!”

Christa S.

“Kaitland is the best! She has watched our pup a few times now and she has been amazing. I never worry when we drop our little guy off at her place. Thanks, Kaitland!”

Stephanie R.

“Our dog usually doesn't like the sitter's house, but Debra spoiled her so much that she was happy to be there! It's nice to find someone who not only watches dogs but also really enjoys them!”

Elaina L.

“Highly recommend Marlena! She was great about making my BIG babies feel comfortable (my female has really bad separation anxiety & immediately connected with Marlena!) She was great about sending updates and very communicative, it was so nice to leave my pups (without worry) for a weekend out of town! We will definitely be booking with Marlena & Phil again! Thanks so much for loving my babies & making them feel safe.”

Ashlie W.

“Tannia and Chris were great taking care of Ollie. They sent photos throughout the days showing how content he was. I would definitely recommend Tannia watching your fur babies when you can’t take them along.”

About: I’ve always lived with many cats and dogs my whole life. I’ve had a variety of pets of all ages including rabbits, snakes, bearded dragons, hamsters. I’ve also fostered many kittens and puppies and I currently have 2 dogs and 2 cats, the majority rescues. I’m a huge animal lover! I am mostly a stay at home mom with 4 pets. We take the dogs on daily walks and sometimes to the park. We are always spending time outdoors in our spacious back yard with our dogs running around and cats climbing trees and roofs and such! I have 2 dogs and 2 cats both very friendly if spending time together! I also have a fenced in yard with a garden. I have a separate indoor petroom stocked with a couple crates (if needed for my big dog), enclosed cat litter boxes, a large cat climbing tree, plenty of pet food and treats, many water bowls and toys for all! And a very family friendly neighborhood for walks and a spacious (not fenced) park as well.

“Renee made us feel comfortable immediately after leaving our two dogs. She made every effort to see that they were comfortable and well taken care of. We were very pleased with her services and would definitely leave our dogs with her again.”

Maria W.

“Absolutely amazing pet sitting experience! My pets were happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for while I was away. Communication was excellent with regular updates and photos, which gave me complete peace of mind. Reliable, professional, and genuinely caring — I would highly recommend them to anyone looking for trustworthy pet care. I’ll definitely be booking again.”

“Kaitlyn and Andrew were wonderful. They sent us pics of Abby every day while we were on vacation. We could tell Abby was loved and enjoyed her time with them. She also got to make friends with their dog Pancake who kept Abby company while we were away. Recommend 100%”

Tina H.

“We were traveling through Jacksonville and had a business dinner on the way. We needed a dog sitter on short notice and Katya stepped in to assist. We left the dog with her her for about 2.5 hours, received numerous pictures and updates. Great communication and affection for our dog. When we picked her up we were told they walked her for an hour since she was in the car all dayu. Great sitter, great communication! Thank you for helping us out!”

Greg H.

“Our doggy Faye had a fantastic time with Bryce. He texted daily updates with photos and our baby looked so happy in all of them! We definitely trust Bryce to watch Faye again and feel lucky to have found someone like him!”

Sarah M.

“Nice home with a fenced yard & neighborhood. Very friendly sitter and her husband played with my dogs too. Lots of updates & pictures. Would take my dogs back.”
