Pet Boarding Charlton

“We first met Briana before leaving our 2 dogs, and we knew immediately that she was the caring, dog loving person others have commented about. So, we ended up leaving our 2 dogs with Briana for a long weekend. The drop off was amazing, as the dogs were welcomed as if they lived there. Throughout the weekend we received pictures, and when we picked them up, it was clear that they had a great time. We highly recommend Briana, and look forward to the next time she will watch our dogs!”

“Elizabeth was able to accommodate my last minute request to care for my pup overnight. She saved the day, and my pup was well cared-for and came home a very happy (and tired) camper.”

Laurie H.

“Kendra was absolutely amazing. From the moment I walked in I knew Scout would be well cared for and would also have a fun furry companion to play with. Kendra is very attentive to details, warm, welcoming to cuddle a sometimes shy dog and my pup enjoyed lots of exercise and play. Thank you Kendra!”

Susan A.

“Roxy had a wonderful stay with Jacquie and her family and pups! She clearly got a lot of attention and snuggles, walks in the woods, and yummy treats. Jacquie had clear and frequent communication and sent us pics. We would absolutely stay again :)”

Hilary M.

“Dorothy was great - she and her family made Bruno feel very welcome and secure and kept us updated while we were away. He has a special diet and daily medication and she was great with giving that to him. Definitely will book again.”

Lael S.

“Tamara and her entire family were EXCELLENT with Cooper!!! Cooper received A+ care while we were away! We have found our sitter and Cooper has found his home away from home. We thank you so very much!”

Patrick S.

“Kimberly sat my 2 bulldogs this weekend and was nothing short of extraordinary! She sent multiple updates/pics/vids each day and made me feel very at ease. I will definitely be using her again in the future. I’m just scared one of these times, they won’t want to leave her home!”

Tony B.

“Melissa & Axel took amazing care of our golden retriever over a two night weekend stay. They sent us plenty of updates and we could tell that our dog loved the stay with their family.”

Aidan M.

“Recently we lost one of our two dogs. We had a trip planned for only a couple weeks later and had to board our second dog alone for the first time. Gabe was an excellent choice and probably the most knowledgeable in training that we have had so far! He was communicative, responsible, and made us feel completely confident while we were gone! Definitely will be giving him a call again for our trips.”

Arianna J.

“We traveled abroad for a 2 week trip- and it was such a relief to find a reliable and welcoming sitter for our dog and our daughter’s dog while we were away. Jen kept us informed with pictures and updates on our dogs’ care - and had plenty of helpers in her children to provide that extra TLC to keep them busy and happy! We will definitely consider Jen first for future pet care needs!”

Kathryn F.

“The care that Kyla provided was wonderful! From the moment Kascia arrived, she felt comfortable with Kyla, that was such a relief for us. I will definitely book again!”

Amara M.

“Shea and Damien are absolutely fantastic and I highly recommend them! I have a large, loud, reactive pup, who takes time to settle in and they gave her ample opportunity and chances to do just that. By the end of her stay she was snuggling on the couch. They are super communicative and understanding. I hope to use them again soon!”

About: Hi, I’m Ashleigh! I’m a lifelong dog lover based in Northeastern Connecticut. My two chocolate Labrador Retrievers are truly part of my family, and they’ve been by my side for the past 10 years. Growing up with family pets and later becoming a dog owner myself has given me years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all ages and personalities. Before having children, I spent five years fostering dogs and puppies through Wings of Freedom Dog Rescue. During that time, I welcomed many dogs into my home, helping them adjust to new environments while providing the love, patience, and care they needed before finding their forever families. I understand that every dog is unique, and I take the time to get to know each pet’s personality, routine, and needs. Whether your dog loves long walks, playtime, or simply wants companionship and cuddles, I’ll make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. I know how important it is to trust someone with your furry family member because I expect the same level of care for my own dogs. I’ll treat your pet like one of my own and keep you updated with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. I look forward to meeting you and your four-legged family members! As a stay-at-home mom, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide reliable, attentive care throughout the day. Caring for animals has always been a part of my daily routine, and I’m able to accommodate walks, drop-in visits, feeding, playtime, and plenty of love and attention. My days are structured around being home, which means I can be dependable and available to meet your pet’s needs while keeping you updated with photos and messages for peace of mind. When caring for pets, safety is always my top priority. I follow each owner’s instructions closely and do my best to keep pets on their normal routine so they feel comfortable and secure. During walks and drop-in visits, I always make sure dogs are properly leashed before opening any doors, and I double-check gates, food, water, and any special instructions before I leave. I’m also comfortable giving medications if needed and will send photo and text updates after each visit so owners know how their pet is doing. For boarding and daycare, pets are cared for in my home as part of the family. I have two very friendly chocolate Labs who enjoy being around other dogs. Because I do not have a fenced yard, all outdoor time is supervised and dogs are always kept on a leash for potty breaks and exercise. I also have two young children (7 months and 4 years old), so I only accept dogs that are comfortable in a family environment. I understand that every dog has different needs, and I’m happy to accommodate the owner’s preferences. Guest dogs can sleep in a dog bed or in a crate, depending on what they are used to at home. My goal is to provide a safe, loving, and low-stress environment where pets feel cared for while their owners are away.

“I can’t say enough good things about Layla. They took amazing care of my senior dog, who is losing his vision and needs extra patience and attention. From the start, Layla was kind, understanding, and clearly experienced with pets. They kept me updated with messages and photos, so I always felt at ease knowing my dog was comfortable and safe. When I came home, my dog was relaxed, happy, and clearly well cared for which is exactly what we had hoped for. I really appreciated how gentle and calm Layla was in helping my dog navigate their surroundings. I would absolutely recommend Layla as a pet sitter to anyone, especially those with senior or special needs pets. They truly were wonderful!”

“I couldn’t have imagined a better first experience with in-house boarding. They were incredibly understanding of my dog’s needs, and Masha loved them from the very first meeting! They even went the extra mile to ensure she was eating well and gave her treats, which I truly appreciated. I would recommend them hands down to anyone—it was such a relief to know she was in such great hands.”

Abhishek J.

“Amy and Ryan are wonderful and so accommodating. They're able to keep constant care of our little guy Gersh, and give us the confidence we want that he'll be okay when we need to be away. Our flight home was recently delayed and with our work schedules the following day it could've been an issue, but we thankfully didn't need to worry. They immediately let us know it wouldn't be a problem at all, and were so understandable and easy to coordinate with. We're happy to have found them, and so is Gersh! Thank you!”

Michael G.

“Migle was absolutely wonderful with Zoë. She went above and beyond-carrying her up and down the stairs because Zoë couldn't manage them, sending regular photo updates, and treating her like her own. I felt completely at ease knowing Zoë was so well cared for. Truly exceptional.”

Jen B.

“Dobbs is family to me, so finding someone I trust isn't easy. Melissa exceeded every expectation. From the moment I dropped him off until I picked him up, she kept me updated with photos and messages that showed him happy, comfortable, and having a wonderful time. Seeing him playing, relaxing, and making new friends made it clear he wasn't just being watched—he was being cared for and loved. Knowing he was in such good hands allowed me to enjoy my trip without worrying. I couldn't have asked for a better experience. Thank you, Melissa, for treating my boy like one of your own. We'll definitely be back.”

“Dogs came home happy and well balanced! Clearly they had been well cared for and given the proper amount of exercise. Kexin and Carlos sent lots of pictures and videos giving me a lot of confidence and comfort in knowing that selecting them was the right choice! My dogs loved their large, fenced in backyard! My 2 dogs got along beautifully with their dog and cats. They even added some healthy supplements to my dogs’ food that they add to their dog’s food! Will be using them again soon!”

Lisa B.

“Stacy was amazing! She communicated very well and was great with our lab! She has a big back yard and welcomed our dog into her home with open arms. We felt very comfortable leaving her with Stacy! 10/10 service.”
