Dog Boarding Chester

“Brittany and her family were wonderful to Enzo. It was a great vacation for him he was well supervised and had a few buddies to play with. We will be happy to leave him there again.”

Nancy S.

“Laura was so wonderful! She made our family and our pup so comfortable and sent pictures and updates throughout our trip. We were so happy knowing that our dog got to be part of Laura’s family while we were away. We’d highly recommend Laura!”

Hadley K.

“Serenity offered to meet our pups prior to their stay with her. She sent regular updates to let me know how they were doing. When we picked them up they seemed at ease. I will definitely reach out to her again when needed.”

Laurie B.

“Laura went above and beyond to make sure our first time leaving our puppy went smoothly. From thorough communication before the booking, to updates during our vacation, it was such a relief to know that he was in good hands (and also having fun too)! If we travel again and need dog care, I will definitely be checking Laura's availability; I'm so glad I found her!”

Laura A.

“Julius and family took good care of our dog. Julius is super-responsive and sent several cute pictures of the visit. It looked like everyone got along well and were very active. Our dog came home exhausted, which is a good thing. We also needed to adjust the end time a little bit, and Julius was very accommodating of the last minute change.”

Shubert K.

“Moby, a clinger, was in a total comfort zone amongst this loving family. Care was complete + a boot camp of healthy activity. Other 🐾 campers alongside was great for his social abilities. Now, our go-to when we have to be away!”

Beatrice W.

“Jill was amazing! We met before our booking so we could make sure my dog would be comfortable and fit in at their home. She sent me pupdates throughout the weekend and did so many adventures with our dog. I'm so happy to have found her!”

Kate D.

“My Golden had a great stay with Connie and family. She sent photos, gave updates, and we met before at a dog park to make sure our dogs got along. He was well cared for, and even sent him home with a goodie bad with some treats. They are much more like professional caretakers and couldn’t recommend enough.”

Jonathan M.

“Thank you so much for taking such wonderful care of Forest this weekend. It means the world to us knowing he was safe, happy, and loved while we were away. Your kindness, reliability, and genuine care gave us complete peace of mind, and we’re so grateful for the time and attention you gave him. We truly appreciate you and feel lucky to have someone we can trust with our furry family member. With heartfelt thanks, Dave and Ana”

David B.

“Gigi had a fabulous time staying with Ariel, as evidenced by the photos of her racing around with a few of her new best dog friends that Ariel sent us each day of our six-day trip. From her description of her property, Ariel's accommodations stood out, with its big, fenced backyard and in-the-house living for dog guests. Although leash walks were an additional option, we knew Gigi would want to run and play. She came fitter, sleeker, and a happy dog. We will definitely book with her again.”

Lea S.

“Nadjeska provided such excellent care for our rescue dog! She sent multiple pictures each day and was very conscientious. We definitely plan to schedule with her again!”

Katie S.

“Mary Jo was great taking care of my senior dog. She was happy when picking her up and it was easy to see she was well cared for. Thank you Mary Jo!”

Ann B.

“Danielle and her family are absolutely wonderful. I continue to recommend them, so great and attentive. Always provide updates and just so sweet.”

Camila B.

“Karen took our Poodle puppy on a last minute request and we’re so happy she did! She stayed in contact throughout, sent tons of photos and videos and was very flexible with pickup and drop off time. She even gave us a little parting gift! Would definitely recommend Karen if you are in the New London/Mystic area!”

Annie K.

“Elisa was wonderful with communication and updates for my Bru, as well as very responsive. Very easy and professional to book with and very trustworthy. Would absolutely use her services again in the future. 🐾”

Alicia D.

“You know you have a great sitter when you dogs are just as excited to see you as they are them! Sherry was great when them and we are so grateful to have found her.”

Colleen M.

“Brittany was AMAZING! Our dog, Bailey was only 18 weeks old and she knew all the right things to do with a puppy. We never worried once about his care. She sent pictures every day of his antics which made us laugh but also convinced us that he was happy and loved. She was in tune with his quirky personality, from his removal of ALL the toys from the toy box before deciding what to play with, to helping with the laundry by stealing the socks, to proudly carrying things around that he “found” . AND Brittany was reasonably priced. We will use her again in a heartbeat. We felt so incredibly blessed to have found her. We can’t thank her enough for making our vacation stress free.”

About: About Me Hi there! I’m a lifelong dog lover and retired Los Angeles firefighter who recently relocated to Middletown. Dogs aren't just a passion of mine—they’ve been my life’s work. Over the past 17+ years, I’ve worked as a professional Search and Rescue K9 handler, raising and working alongside three incredible SAR dogs of my own and helping train dozens more toward official certification. Now in my retirement, my days revolve around outdoor adventures, active play, and giving dogs the best possible care while their owners are away. My trusty companion Mojo, a friendly rescue pup, loves meeting new playmates and welcoming guests! What Sets My Care Apart * Safe, Active, and Enriched: I walk or hike almost daily and love taking guest dogs along for the journey! Whether your pup enjoys a leisurely neighborhood stroll, learning to hike safely, or exploring new surroundings, they’ll get plenty of physical exercise and fun. * Positive, Brain-Boosting Fun: My training philosophy is rooted in positive reinforcement and reward-based training. I love watching what behaviors dogs naturally offer and shaping them into fun new "tricks." It’s an incredible bonding experience that gives dogs great mental stimulation and keeps them happily engaged. * Spacious Acreage: I have a wonderful local property with tons of room for dogs to run, play, and burn off energy in a calm, safe environment (fully fenced as of late September!). * Unmatched Peace of Mind: Being fully retired means I am almost always home! I never host or board dogs on days when I need to be away for more than a couple of hours, ensuring your pet gets round-the-clock attention, safety, and companionship. Guests and Compatibility I am completely comfortable with dogs of all sizes, breeds, and life stages—from energetic puppies to senior companions. I also occasionally foster rescue dogs, so Mojo and I are well-versed in hosting social pups who enjoy extra canine company. Need help fine-tuning your dog’s leash manners during their stay? Just ask—we can easily discuss building positive leash habits while they’re here! Reach out today to schedule a meet-and-greet. Mojo and I can’t wait to welcome your pup to their home away from home! Being retired means my entire day is built around quality pet care! Our mornings always start with a good outdoor workout, followed by short, engaging training and exercise sessions spread throughout the day. Because I am home full-time, your pup will enjoy a structured routine packed with continuous companionship, mental enrichment, and plenty of activity. Your dog’s safety and peace of mind are my top priorities. My home is nestled in a quiet, low-traffic rural area, offering a calm and peaceful setting away from busy streets. Outdoor playtime happens in a spacious, full-acre yard—completely fenced as of September 21st—giving pets a secure, massive space to run and play freely. To ensure constant security and supervision, my property is also equipped with indoor and outdoor smart cameras, so I always have an eye on my guests whether we're inside or out in the yard.

“They did amazing with my semi rowdy Luna. I was updated everyday with lovely photos of her and her adventures! They accepted my last minute booking along with a meet and greet. It went as good as I could have expected plus more! I highly recommend and I will be booking in the future.”

“Cassandra & Nolan took excellent care of my Rosie girl while I was on a day trip to NYC. Frequent walks, cuddles, playtime, and plenty of photo updates. She enjoyed taking part in their holiday celebration! I will definitely book them again next time I'm in CT.”
