Pet Boarding Burns

About: Craig and I have had a dogs since age ten. As an adults, we have continued to always have a dog (Spike, 7 lb). We also foster for Bonaparte's Retreat, 42 dogs and counting over the past 22 years. We have fostered special needs (blind, deaf, surgery recovery, special medical needs: pill schedule. We only take small/med breeds. Never more than 2-3 dogs at one time. We like them to have plenty of individual care and attention. They have the run of the house. We are retired and home with our pet guests. We have 5 acres for long walks and a large fenced in back yard. We even have a ramp for pups with issues going up/down stairs to the back yard. Staying with us is like going to Gramma's for the weekend. (some even choose share our bed at night, and that is ok) Available 7 days a week, we are retired. Enjoy walks, play time in the secured/fenced yard. We enjoy time on the porch on nice days barking at the squirrels and having treats. Pet sitting in our home. We have a 14 year old boy, 7 lbs, Spike. We have 5 acres for long walks, stairs and a ramp for pets to get to the fenced back yard area. We are retired and home with our pet guests during their stay. They have the run of the house just like they would at your home. Sleeping in pet bed or our bed with us if they prefer.

“Emily watched our 1.5 year old mini goldendoodle for 4 days and he absolutely adored her. She was great with communication sending text and picture updates throughout the stay. We had an initial meet and greet with Emily ahead of time and we knew instantly that she is an animal lover! She asked all the right questions to make sure our dog was fed /walked/ exercised on time. Emily’s apartment was also great for our active pup since she has a little private outdoor balcony. Would recommend Emily to any of our friends and will definitely be booking in the future again! Thanks Emily!!”

“Our 10 year old lab enjoyed her time with Erika and Eric! She is a very anxious old girl so we appreciate them making her feel so comfortable that she actually ate each day we were gone - very unusual for her. Erika communicated well with us through the whole process and we appreciate the meet and greet as well…. We will for sure send our pup back to them.”

“Denver was amazing with my golden retriever, Miller! She was super communicative from the moment I requested availability until after I had picked him up from his weekend stay! All of her pictures and videos and reassurance through the whole weekend was so nice and I loved every single picture and video!! Miller came home so happy and exhausted all at the same time from playing all weekend long with her sweet Pyrenees, Caesar. Miller was spoiled by Denver and Caesar. I’ll continue to use Denver anytime I need Miller to stay overnight.”

“She was amazing and dogs seem very happy. I will use her again inthe future”

About: I’ve been an animal lover for as long as I can remember! I grew up with both dogs and cats, so being around furry friends has always been a big part of my life. I’ve also spent lots of time dog/cat sitting for family and friends, and I’ve loved every minute of it. I genuinely enjoy getting to know each pet’s personality and making sure they feel happy, comfortable, and loved while their humans are away. Whether that means going on walks, playing, giving lots of belly rubs and cuddles, or just hanging out together, I’m always happy to keep your pet company! I’ll treat your pets like they’re my own and make sure they get plenty of love, attention, and care while you’re away. 🐾❤️ I currently work part-time, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of time to dedicate to caring for your pets! I’m able to work around my schedule to make sure your pets receive plenty of attention, love, and companionship while you’re away. When caring for your pets in your home, my goal is to keep them comfortable, happy, and on their normal routine while you’re away. I’ll follow your instructions closely and make sure they have everything they need, including fresh food and water, walks, playtime, and plenty of love and attention. I know that being away from their owners can be an adjustment for pets, so I’ll do my best to make them feel safe and cared for in their familiar environment. I’m happy to spend extra time with them, give them lots of cuddles and playtime, and make sure they’re never feeling lonely. I’ll also treat your home with the same respect and care that I give your pets. I want you to feel comfortable knowing that your furry family members are in good hands while you’re away!

“Sharon kept our little 5lb senior guy for the first time for us. WOW what a special person she is. We got updates daily with pictures to match - of our little guy. Sharon is truly a special person with so much love, patience and kindness for pets. He got so much loving, he didn't want to leave. We will not hesitate to use her again. Thank you”

“She was so good with my 10 month old Aussie doodle! She worked with him and kept to his schedule. Beyond impressed and will book with her again! Can’t say enough good things about her :)”

“Sara was an excellent sitter! This was the first stay away from home for Lily, our beagle we adopted six weeks ago. Lily is an anxious girl, afraid of new people and settings, but Sara and her dog Louie made Lily feel right at home. She settled in well and was content snoozing and lounging around with Louie. I highly recommend Sara as a sitter. She is accommodating and cares about your pet’s specific needs.”

“Kris was absolutely amazing! When you’re basically meeting strangers to take care of your pet, it can go so many ways. She was super helpful over chat and so kind in person and welcoming of my dog! Her dog was super sweet and loving and inviting of my dog! Great experience and can’t wait to book again! She is fabulous!”

“T sent us fun pics every 2 days, was very responsive, and returned Meemo in great shape. She was also super accommodating when we split the stay between my wife and I (we each had $50 Rover credit). Great value for us! Seems like Meemo got lots of exercise and social interaction with the other dogs, which we're very happy about. She even came back smelling good - a bonus we would not have expected. :)”

“Tammy is amazing! She helped me and my pup out at the last minute, and I couldn’t be more grateful. She took the time to meet us beforehand and really understood that some pups just need a little extra time to feel comfortable in new environments. Her communication was always fantastic, and she made the whole experience so easy. I can’t recommend her enough!”

Jason S.

“Our dog son was welled cared for in every way, Martin even pointed a skin condition and took care of it for us while we enjoyed our vacation !”

Molly S.

“Lisa was great with our pups over the long stay. I would recommend her to anyone! And the photos that she took for the pups are priceless… she could definitely moonlight as an animal photographer!! Thanks, Lisa, for keep my girls smiling!!”

Melissa O.

“Sydney is wonderful! She connected with and cared for my pups like she would her own. She regularly sent me pictures of their adventures together and went above and beyond to dote on my dogs and treat them like family. Would recommend booking Sydney a thousand times over!”

About: I’ve always had a love for dogs and enjoy being around them whenever I can. I regularly care for my family’s Corgi-Terrier mix when my parents are out of town, have helped my best friend care for his German Shorthaired Pointer (GSP) throughout veterinary school, and am always happy to lend a hand with my girlfriend’s Golden Retriever. I’ve never met a dog I didn’t instantly become a fan of, and I genuinely enjoy getting to know each dog’s unique personality. Whether it’s walking, sitting, or providing companionship, I’m committed to making sure your dog feels comfortable, safe, and well cared for while giving you peace of mind when you’re away. I currently work full-time in office five days a week Monday through Friday. Before and after work plus weekends are where I can help out the most. I have a dog park at my apartment and regularly enjoy walking around the Nations, so I’d love to include your pet in those activities! I’m also happy to care for your pet in the comfort of your own home, keeping them on their normal routine and making sure they receive plenty of exercise, attention, and companionship. My priority is always making sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for wherever they are!

“Blaise was so accommodating and so sweet for taking my little guy! She handled all my changes with grace and sent the cutest photos! We will be using Blaise again for sure 💕”

Gina N.

“Breezy was the best sitter for our energetic golden doodle. There was a big backyard to run and play, and she was great at sending pics of our boy. I knew he was in good hands while I was out of town, and I will use her again. Highly recommended!”

Sharon G.

“We were traveling from out of town and this was our first time leaving our puppy. Terri Jo made us feel comfortable and kept us updated with texts & pictures to let us know he was doing well. She took him on walks and to the dog park despite the rainy weather. Would definitely book again!”
