“Absolutely the best experience having boarded my precious Maysie was Lisa and her family.

Absolutely will rebook with Lisa as I knew my pup was treated as part of the family!”

“This was our first time using Rover and we were so lucky to have Xinzhi take care of Ruby over the weekend! Ruby had a blast hanging out with Xinzhi’s dog Bella. Xinzhi took great care of Ruby and she felt at home with her hospitality! She kept me updated through out the weekend posting pictures and videos of Ruby, taking her for long walks and outdoor plays and ensuring Ruby was comfortable just like being at home. I did not worry a bit about Ruby! I will use Xinzhi again for Ruby!”

We can now happily plan for our future vacations, leaving our dog in your safe hands 😊”

About: I have two German Shepherds, one Belgian Malinois, one Shepsky, and this Jack Russell mix that completes this motley crew. I am a nurse who finds solace and stress relief in spending time with and caring for animals, especially dogs. I’d love to help you out with your pups if they need walks or playtime. I have cared for medically fragile dogs in the past and will follow your, or the vets, instructions as needed. I have over one acre of land for your dogs to play if they are to board in my home. I am home most of the time in the summer. If you have any questions, just ask! I’m a school nurse now, so I’m off during the summer months and holidays. I run errands sometimes during the day, or step out to walk dogs. I’m not gone for long. My schedule will change during the school year, but I will be home late afternoons and weekends. If I’m dropping in only, I’ll play with your pup and clean up any messes they’ve made or follow your instructions. If I’m taking them for a walk, I take a few minutes to get to know them if they haven’t met me before or play to say hi. Water bowls are cleaned and refilled before I leave. Big dogs subject to bloat - I let them calm down if panting after a walk before watering/feeding. If they’re in my home, they’re treated like royalty along with my pack. Introductions are done outside so that there’s no tension. Everyone is playing and the meeting is casual. I look to you for information on their personalities and care. I have an invisible fence for my dogs. If your dog is familiar and trained, I can provide a collar. I’m also experienced and trained with the e collar if that’s how your pup was trained. It will never be used as punishment.
“Emily was amazing! She was so quick to respond from first inquiry and throughout our stay. She was also extremely flexible and transparent. She treated Lola like one of her own dogs and ensured that she fit into their family while she stayed with them. It was so reassuring to know that Lola was happy and loved the entire time we were away. We greatly appreciated Emily and Lola will definitely be back to visit her friends in the future!”
“Christina was awesome! She took care of Meeko like one of her own and I’m so appreciative of that. She kept me updated throughout his stay and sent us pictures. He will definitely be back to hangout with Bentley and Dixen!”
