Dog Boarding Merrickville

“Lynda went above and beyond in looking after our blind Pomeranian who also has a serious digestive issue that requires a special diet and attentive care. Lynda followed given instructions for Luna’s diet and even made some food when adjustments were needed. At the first signs of any issues she was in touch to ensure things were handled well. If only we could find such loving care for some of our humans!! While it was hard to leave Luna for a week with the health concerns she has I was reassured knowing that I was leaving her in Lynda’s capable and caring hands. Thanks so much Lynda!!”

“Cosmo had a great time on his weekend stay with Nicole and Eddie. Once again they were great. Communication and accommodation was top notch. They clearly kept Cosmo busy with walks and playtime as he slept the whole day once he got home! We highly recommend Nicole and Eddie.”

“Frankie and Gus had a great stay with Kirstin & Justin. They provided updates throughout their stay, were flexible with drop off and pick up times. We would definitely book with them again. They came home happy pups!”

“This was the 3rd time my little dog and the 2nd time my cat have been in Miaozi’s care, and once again, I couldn’t be happier! 🐾❤️ Miaozi is absolutely amazing with my furry babies. She is incredibly gentle, caring, attentive, and trustworthy. She communicates so well throughout the entire stay, which gives me so much peace of mind knowing that they are in such good hands. I truly trust her 100% and feel completely comfortable leaving my pets with her. She goes above and beyond every time, and it’s clear how much love and care she puts into what she does. I would highly recommend Miaozi to anyone looking for someone who will treat their pets like their own. We’re so grateful to have found her! 🥰🐶🐱”

“I cannot recommend this babysitter enough! They watched our dog, Zeus, and treated him exactly like a member of their own family.From the moment Zeus arrived, he felt so comfortable that he completely made himself at home. They took him on great walks with the kids, showered him with cuddles, and made sure he was spoiled with plenty of treats and perfectly timed meals. It brought us so much peace of mind knowing he was receiving so much love and attention. We will definitely be booking again!”

Laura D.

“What a lovely family! It truly felt like a 'home away from home' for my dog. Hunter enjoyed his time with Manali and her family so much—it was like a vacation for him, too! Thank you for treating Hunter with such genuine love and care. You will always be my first choice, and I highly recommend your services to any pet owner!”

“Maria, her husband, and Brownie were such good hosts to my boy! He was well taken care of and I got wonderful and adorable picture updates throughout his stay! Highly recommend!!”

“As a repeat client, I can’t recommend Hui enough! She took Bruiser on beautiful walks, sent many sweet videos and updates, and overall provides a safe and loving environment.”

Haleigh J.

“Would give 100 stars if I could! Bridget and Glen are super sweet and accommodating. Our spoiled little Chi has never been away from us and they made sure he was loved and happy and sent lots of pictures and updates. Highly recommended and will definitely be back!”

About: I've had dogs for the last 20 years, usually with four in the house at a time. We've had a Shih-tzu, three Jack-Shih-tzus, a Great Pyrenees, and now a solo Maltie-Poo named Dozer. Every dog I meet is a new friend, and I have to admit that I knew the names of all the dogs in my last neighborhood, and like maybe three of the owners names. Happy to walk active dogs that need long walks. For doggy day care and boarding we have to restrict it to small dogs because our own small dog is picky about which larger dogs he likes. Other animals: I've also taken care of farm animals. Dairy cows and calves, and feeding chickens and putting them in for the night. I've kept both freshwater and marine tanks and can check up on your fish or your reef while you're away. No worrying about your niece or nephew dumping a whole container of bug bites into the tank while you're gone and causing an ammonia spike. I've also kept constrictors and colubrids (but not currently), crested geckos, and dart frogs, and am familiar with the husbandry of each. I have a flexible schedule and am in between writing contracts at the moment so have lots of time available for scheduling check-ins and walks for local puppers. I can check-on and feed pets as needed, dispense necessary meds, walk them from your home, or load them in the car and take them to the Cataraqui Trail for longer walks / more active dogs.

“Shannon was absolutely fantastic with our Goose. She had him into routine in minutes and he was the happiest boy in a long time. She sent so many updates and photos and videos and I truly felt like Goose was with family while at her home.”

“Jason took amazing care of my dog ! They were reliable, attentive, and kept me updated with photos and messages. I could tell my dog was happy and comfortable the whole time. Highly recommend!”

Haonan F.

“We greatly appreciated Jocelyn and Jason's care for our dog, Jasper, while we were away. He enjoyed their company, as well as making other 4-legged friends. They kept in touch with us while we are away so we could vacation without worry! Thank you SO much :)”

“My 4 year old cockapoo Bella stayed with Vivian and her parents this past week for 5 nights while we were on vacation. They were very responsive thru the booking process and we met them before booking to ensure it was a good fit. Vivian was accommodating with the meeting time. We received lots of updates and pictures of Bella while we were away which we loved. Bella seemed super happy with them and it looks like she had lots of attention, walks and cuddles. I would most definitely rebook with Vivian and her parents again when we go out out town without our Bella.”

Susan W.

“Stephanie was amazing! We got lots of pictures and updates about our dog throughout her stay. She was given lots of care and snuggles and we would definitely book with Stephanie again!!!”

Amelie B.

“Lisa and Jason were absolutely wonderful with Storm! They went above and beyond to make our little guy feel comfortable while we were away. And the pictures we received were so cute!!!! Thank you!”

Terilynn A.

“Abbey and James are amazing. They are wonderful people and treat Ryder as if she were their own. Ryder is always excited when they arrive to pick her up for her stay. Their dog Styx and Ryder play all day together and she is always tired when she comes home. I highly recommend Abbey and James. We already have her next stay booked.”

Gail V.

“Mirian was amazing with Autumn! Communication was outstanding and I could feel the love she was giving our fur baby in our absence. Will definitely we booking with her again”

A. B.

“Chockie, our nine year old labradoodle, has been moping around today, after her five day stay with Meaghan and Jon. I think that she had a lot more attention and playtime than she is used to here with us. We don’t go away very often, and would certainly feel at ease leaving Chockie with Meaghan and Jon again.”

Kay B.

“Phil was wonderful looking after our dog for the day and night. Ernie was clearly well cared for and seemed like we were picking him up from summer camp! 100% would love to drop him off again :)”
