Dog Boarding Blackwell

“My dog had an amazing time with Michelle and Milo - She liked it so much it seemed she didn’t want to leave! Seriously, Michelle took great care of my girl and made sure all of her needs were taken care of.”

Shannon S.

“Was such a great host of my cat pumpkin. Sent timely updates and made sure to get the cutest pictures of her back to me during her stay! Definitely hope to book her again in the future.”

“From start to finish, Michaela did a wonderful job watching our little dog Coco! She always responded in a timely manner and kept in touch with us, sending pictures and updates daily. We’re so grateful that Coco was loved and taken well care during our trip abroad. We would highly recommend Michaela if you should need a loving and caring pet sitter!!🥰🐾”

“Stacey took great care of my dog and made me feel at ease leaving her for a week. I knew she understood my concerns and was on the same page about safety and making sure my dog got along well with hers. I got plenty of updates while I was gone, and my dog had a great time with no stress, which is exactly what I was looking for! Can’t thank her enough!”

“Jesse was so sweet and enthusiastic about watching Ripley on short notice over the Christmas holiday. Lots of walks, attention, and hanging with other hounds…she loved being a part of his pack. 😊”

Jasmine P.

“Amanda was so awesome! She sent lots of pictures and updates and took great care of Oliver. I picked up a very happy (and tired!) dog from all the playtime and walks he enjoyed while staying at Amanda’s house!”

About: I frequently dogsit for friends and family, and I've had my soul-dog for 5 years! She's a rescue shepherd-husky mix and has taught me SO much about training and caring for a smart, high-energy dog! She's entering her senior years and has slowed down a lot, which means I have more time in my day to care for other pups, whether it's a check-in, walk, or boarding in my home. I have a fenced front and back yard, and with my location in Church Hill, there are countless places to walk and explore. I currently work from home 95% of the time! The other 5% is a mix of working at coffee shops and going in to my work's coworking space, but I'm never away from home for more than 8 hours a day. My days are very flexible and I'm happy to work around you and your pup's schedule! I have a fenced front yard that is grassy and a shady, fenced back patio/yard that pups can run around in. I only take 1 boarding or day-care client at a time, so your dog gets my full attention (alongside my pup!). Your dog must be friendly around other dogs for boarding or day care.

“Laura and her family do an excellent job with Nacho. I am comfortable leaving him in their care as I know they will treat him no different than as a member of their family. I'm sure he misses us, but he also looks forward to boarding at their house so I am not worried at all that he will be homesick.”

“My dog Ruth had a blast staying with Maggie and Josh for a week while I was out of town. Ruth can be very shy around new people and nervous in new places.. but not with Maggie and Josh! Ruth was best friends with Maggie at first sight and was very comfortable in their home. They sent me regular photo updates and clearly cared for Ruth like she was their own dog. Even the questions Maggie asked me at our meet and greet showed her familiarity with and care for dogs. I wholeheartedly recommend Maggie and Josh, and I know Ruth is already looking forward to my next trip so she can stay with them again.”

“Ethel was a great sitter! We would gladly leave Ziggy with Ethel again--she communicated well, was flexible, had a nice play area in the back yard, and our social dog enjoyed hanging out with Chase!”

Kevin D.

“Nicole and Austyn are the best!! I needed an overnight sitter super last minute and Nicole was able to help me out! I really appreciate the flexibility and will absolutely be booking with her again :)”

Madi D.

“Chris was great, and super attentive to Poppy's needs! We received photo updates, and Poppy seemed happy and exhausted (in the best way) once we picked him up. Poppy can be needy at times, and Chris showed no hesitation to attending to his needs, and neediness, lol!”

Bria S.

“Abby was a wonderful sitter for my two large Dobermans. The oldest has cancer and the youngest, I admit, is a spoiled handful. Abby was knowledgeable in the handling of both. I recommend her highly.”

Olyn W.

“When I pull up to their house, My dog makes joyful sounds, jumping with joy & excitement because she loves to hang out with Pam, Paul & Marlowe. She’s very happy there.”

Patricia V.

“My dog had a great stay with Laura! She was very kind and I really appreciated how attentive she was to my dog’s schedule. Will definitely use Laura’s services again in the future!”

Emily P.

“Killie was so well taken care of with Angelica. I received multiple updates a day which I was happy to share with my daughters about their “brother” while we were away. It appears that his playtime and cuddle time needs were more than adequately met and we hope he’ll get to hang with Angelica again very soon 🩵”

Avery C.

“Doris was absolutely amazing! She took such great care of my fur baby, and it was clear he adored her. She is kind, attentive, thorough, and very professional. She kept me updated throughout my time away, which gave me so much peace of mind. I will definitely be booking with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter.”

Cayla B.

“Coco had a wonderful weekend with Elizabeth! She kept me updated on what Coco was doing and sent pictures daily. I would absolutely rebook with Elizabeth in the future!”
