Dog Boarding Essa

“Aditya and Ipshita were everything we could ask for and then some. They cared for our dog like a beloved family member and kept us posted throughout his stay. This is the first time we've truly felt comfortable with the care of our dog and I will use them again without hesitation. Thanks Aditya and Ipshita.”

“Natasha & Sandro’s experience with rescue dogs gave me the peace of mind I was looking for, they understand Rocky’s needs and made him feel at home with their dogs. The updates and photos were great for me to see Rocky having a good time with his new friends. I am happy to not have to hunt for a sitter anymore as both myself and Rocky had a very positive experience with our vacations.”

“We absolutely loved having Tsz take care of Billa! This was our second time using her, and once again, she went above and beyond. She sent us such detailed and frequent updates, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. It was clear that she cared for Billa as if he were her own. She even went the extra mile and bought Billa a toy, which was such a sweet and thoughtful surprise! 🥹 You can truly tell how much she cares about the pets she looks after. We will absolutely be using her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, caring, and attentive. Billa clearly had an amazing time!”

About: Hi, I’m Kat. I’m a Bradford local and a lifelong pet owner who truly understands that pets are family. I grew up with animals and got my first dog at 18, a Yorkshire Terrier who was with me for 13 years. Caring for him through every stage of life, including his senior years, taught me patience, attentiveness, and how important consistency is in a dog’s routine. In 2019, we welcomed Theodore, our Airedale Terrier. Through him, I’ve gained experience handling high-energy breeds, structured walks, and maintaining calm, confident leash control. I offer reliable midday dog walks and drop-in visits between 11am and 3pm, ideal for working families who need a safe and dependable break in their dog’s day. I always provide photo updates and clear communication so you feel confident while you’re away. I treat every dog in my care with the same level of attention and respect that I give my own. 🏠 Now offering boarding in our Bradford home! One guest dog at a time, so your pup gets our full attention instead of getting lost in a pack. I'm home full-time and our fully fenced yard means plenty of safe outdoor time, with potty breaks every few hours. Pups need to be fully house-trained, over a year old, and spayed/neutered. I welcome small and medium pups up to 40 lbs. For daytime rest, whatever works for your dog works for me: if they're happy lounging on the main floor, great; if they do better in their crate, just bring it along and let me know their routine. Full transparency: we have two young kids and our own Airedale Terrier, Theodore, so I only take dogs who are comfortable around children and other dogs, and I always do a meet & greet before the first stay so everyone's comfortable. You'll get photo updates throughout the stay, just like my walking clients do. Message me to chat about dates! I’m available for weekday walks and drop-in visits between 11am and 3pm, which is perfect for midday breaks while you’re at work. On weekends, I have more flexibility and am available between 9am and 2pm. I keep my schedule manageable so each dog gets my full attention and care. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on keeping their routine as consistent and stress-free as possible. I follow all instructions carefully, whether that includes feeding, refreshing water, administering simple medications, or sticking to specific walking routes. During walks, I pay close attention to leash control, surroundings, and each dog’s comfort level. I make sure harnesses and collars are properly secured and that doors and gates are locked before leaving. I always provide photo updates and clear communication so you feel confident and informed while you’re away. My goal is for your pet to feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for in their familiar environment.

“Sara took excellent care of our energetic Airedale terrier. He had multiple walks, a clean and spacious house, and large fenced backyard. She sent us plenty of photos and updates, and we knew that our dog was very well cared for. They have 2 friendly, non-aggressive dogs that played well with our dog. I highly recommend Sara and Cody for anyone who wants exceptional care for their dog.”

“Lynee was great with Eevee! She was attentive and patient. Eevee had an awesome time and even went home with a homemade bandana. For sure recommend Lynne; we know we’ll be using her service next time!”

“Xi was absolutely wonderful with Caju! We felt so comfortable knowing she was in such caring hands. Xi sent us lots of updates throughout her stay, including so many photos and videos, which we really appreciated and loved seeing while we were away. It was very clear that Caju was happy, comfortable, and having the best time with her. She came home happy and well cared for, and I honestly couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Xi is kind, attentive, reliable, and clearly really loves animals. We would absolutely trust her with Caju again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone who will genuinely care for their pet like their own. Thank you so much, Xi! ❤️”

“Theresa is our go-to when we need someone to care for our dog Paprika while we're away, and has been for several years now. She treats Paprika like a member of the family. We couldn't be happier with our experience.”

“Rieko was perfect for our dog. Our old cocker spaniel still loves to play and loves attention. Rieko gave our dog a variety of activities and lots of cuddles. Many pictures were sent to us. It gave us a sense of relief and confidence that our dog was at the best place away from us.”
