Pet Boarding Boardman

About: Over the past 20 years, I’ve cared for three of my own dogs from puppyhood through their senior years, giving me firsthand experience with every stage of life—from potty training and high energy phases to gentle senior care. I’ve also raised kittens into senior cats, so I’m comfortable with feline personalities and needs as well. Beyond my own pets, I’ve regularly helped care for the dogs and cats of family and friends. I understand how important it is to have someone you trust looking after your pet, and I treat every animal in my care with the same patience, love, and attention I gave my own. As a stay-at-home mom, pet care fits very naturally into my daily schedule. I’m home throughout the day, which allows me to give pets consistent attention, maintain their routines, and provide a calm, present environment while you’re away. I know how important it is for pets to feel safe, comfortable, and cared for in their own space. I take a patient, gentle approach and pay close attention to each animal’s unique temperament—whether that means playtime and energy for a young pup or a quiet, reassuring presence for a shy cat. In addition to everyday care, I’m experienced in administering medications, including oral meds and insulin injections for diabetic cats. I understand how important consistency, attentiveness, and trust are when caring for pets with medical needs, and I’m confident providing that level of care. I’ve also been the go-to pet sitter for family and friends over the years, helping with walks, feedings, routines, and lots of affection. Every pet I care for is treated with the same love and attention I gave my own. My goal is simple: to give you peace of mind and your pet a calm, loving experience while you’re away. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities, whether I’m caring for them in your home or welcoming them into mine. In my home, pets are treated like family. I have a friendly, well-socialized dog and cats who are accustomed to other animals, creating a calm and welcoming environment. I’m mindful of introductions and each pet’s personality to ensure everyone feels safe and at ease. Dogs are always leashed for daily walks, and I have a large yard that allows for extra exercise and playtime in a secure space. As a stay-at-home mom, I’m home throughout the day, which allows me to closely supervise pets, maintain their routines, and give them consistent attention and companionship. When caring for pets in your home, I’m respectful of your space and committed to keeping your pet’s routine as normal and stress-free as possible. I follow feeding schedules, walking routines, medication instructions, and any special preferences you share. I also offer meet-and-greets before bookings so you and your pet can feel comfortable and confident. Building trust with both pets and their owners is very important to me, and I want you to feel completely at ease knowing your pet is in loving, attentive hands.

“I was delighted with Katherine's service. She was prompt with my correspondence and the pickup and drop off service. Also my dog seemed to enjoy her stay with her immensely. I like that she provided me with photos during the course of the day boarding and overnight. I will definitely use her again in the future.”

“Laurie was wonderful with Gracie! I was a little nervous letting Gracie stay away but from the moment we had our meet & greet I felt very comfortable. Laurie, her sweet dog Daphne & daughter were very warm and welcoming. Laurie provided many check-ins and promptly answered all of the questions I had. I would definitely Laurie to anyone looking for a sitter and plan to use Laurie again in the future!”

“Very responsive and sent many pictures of the dogs. Ares, being a large puppy, is a lot, but Jeanne was so kind to take him in and watch my pups. I would recommend her as a dog sitter to anyone in the area and would book again with her if needed!”

About: I have taken care of different dogs through the day and overnight. I enjoy meeting new dogs and learning their personalities. I also have two dogs of my own that I love to take on walks, play outside, and go on little trips with!! I currently work part-time, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of time to care for your pets. I am available for walks, drop-in visits, daytime care, and overnight stays. I enjoy spending time with dogs and making sure they get the attention, exercise, and care they need while you’re away. I treat every dog as if they were my own.

“Responsive Sitter, Great Family. Thank you so much for taking care of Price. Looking forward to rebook.”

Rachel C.

“BEST DOG SITTERS EVER!!! Lindsey and her entire family are the most loving people you could ever want to watch your dog! I actually think our frenchy is missing his new found family and their wonderful pups who he played with all day long! We have never boarded him for that long (9 nights!) and were very apprehensive about leaving him. But Lindsey had us come over to meet her, her family and their dogs to make sure we felt comfortable. Afterwards, we just knew that our Ronan would be safe, sound and very loved while we were gone. We will never use anyone else! Thanks so much for everything!!”

“Daniel and Rachel were great with our dog. They have a great house with a fenced yard. Rusty got along with their dogs. Daniel and Rachel constantly sent us pictures and videos so we were happy to see him all the time. We highly recommend Daniel and Rachel.”

Neelima J.

“Hanna was great with our pup during our weekend trip. Many pictures and updates kept us worry free while we were on the road. The beautiful scenery on her farmland makes for a great place for any furry friends to relax and play. Our girl will definitely be back with Hanna during our next adventure!”

Derek H.

“April is fantastic! She really cares about her dogs and keeps you updated on how they are doing….providing much needed peace of mind. Mishka loved staying there and we will definitely utilize April’s services again.”

Gail M.

“Heather is a wonderful sitter! I’m busy with work and graduate school and she is always very accommodating with my shifting plans. I love that I am able to have her and her husband drop off and pick up my dog from my home if I need to! Unfortunately I missed my flight home on the last day of the boarding and Heather was extremely helpful with keeping my dog another night and allowing me to pick my dog up very early in the morning when I was finally able to get a flight home! I am so thankful I found such a good sitter to take care of my baby. She’s also great on updating you about your pets so you always have peace of mind that they are being taken care of!”

“Kimberly is FANTASTIC! I would recommend her services to anyone looking for someone to care for their pet. I like how she took the time to provide both a meet and greet and a visit to her home before our dog’s stay. We were nervous our dog would be scared to be in a new environment, but Kimberly helped her feel comfortable and they had a great stay together. I also want to compliment how respectful her son was of our dog - Kimberly stated she has taught her son how to treat animals and it resulted in our dog not feeling stressed out with anyone invading her personal space or pushing her boundaries - I really appreciated that! Kimberly was also kind enough to send updates and photos to make it easier to be away from our favorite pup. We had a great vacation knowing our dog was being well taken care of :)”
