Pet Boarding Cross Plains

About: Animals have been an integral part of my life for as long as I can remember—from growing up around my family’s German Shepherd breeding and training work, to years of rescuing and fostering both dogs and cats. I can provide continuous supervision, regular potty and play breaks, and plenty of outdoor exercise tailored to each dog's energy level and temperament. My home currently includes one calm, dog-friendly resident cat, making for a peaceful, low-stress environment where guest dogs receive focused care and affection. I have worked with senior dogs and cats as well as puppies and kittens. I am experienced with administering medications and experienced with disabled dogs. I work remotely and am home full-time with a flexible work schedule. I can provide 24/7 care for your dog or cat. I am also available for walks throughout the day and week. While boarding in my home, I am able to be available for feeding or potty breaks as needed. I am able to watch the dog or cat to see what they need when. If I am providing drop in visits or walks, my schedule is flexible. I am available during the day and evenings.

About: I grew up on a farm, so caring for animals has been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. I’ve had experience with animals of all kinds and learned early on that every animal has their own personality, needs, and quirks! Whether your dog needs a long walk, some extra playtime, medication reminders, or just someone to keep them company, I’m happy to help. I’m also comfortable with puppies, energetic dogs, and senior pets who may need a little extra patience and attention. Most importantly, I’ll treat your pets like they’re my own and keep you updated while you’re away. I work from home, so I have a flexible schedule and can give pets plenty of attention throughout the day. Also at my fiance’s flower shop pets are welcome, so I’m often around animals even when I’m not at home. This makes it easy for me to provide regular walks, playtime, potty breaks, and companionship rather than leaving pets alone for long periods. I work from home, so they’ll have plenty of company throughout the day, along with walks, playtime, and lots of attention. I grew up on a farm around all kinds of animals, and I really enjoy having pets around. I’m happy to let them settle into their own routine, whether that means playing fetch all afternoon, curling up on the couch, or taking a nice long nap. I’ll follow any instructions you leave and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while they’re with us.

“Our 4 month old Luna stayed at Ballby's house for the weekend and we couldn't have been happier with the service. The hosts was willing to pick Luna up from daycare on Friday evening, they were very gracious about the "accidents" that our pup had on her first night, and we received photo updates throughout the weekend. Luna had so much fun playing with Ballby that she came home Sunday and passed out until the next morning. We will definitely recommend this host.”

“Our dog Gracie really, really likes Meta! Meta has a friendly, caring personality that helped Gracie feel welcome and very comfortable right away. Meta followed all instructions precisely - feeding, meds, walks, etc. Meta is a great communicator. She sent texts and pictures each day. We were very impressed and hope Meta is available to take care of Gracie in the future.”

“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Wonderful, trustworthy, and genuinely caring dog sitter! I cannot recommend Ruth highly enough! She took wonderful care of my dog, Titou, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Ruth was responsible, attentive, trustworthy, and genuinely committed to making sure Titou felt comfortable, happy, and safe. I particularly appreciated her excellent communication and regular updates, which gave me tremendous peace of mind while we were apart. Ruth clearly understands that every dog has their own personality, needs, and routines. She approaches pet care with patience, kindness, and genuine affection. She provided a welcoming, secure environment where Titou felt completely at home. Finding someone you can truly trust with your beloved companion is invaluable. Titou was happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. I would absolutely trust Ruth with him again and wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, compassionate, and conscientious dog sitter!”

“Olivia is amazing!!! Our Nutka stay with Olivia for a week. This was Nutka’s first time away from us which may have been difficult at her 4 years of age. Olivia created adjustment meetings to ensure Nutka was happy and transitioned well. It worked! Nutka loved being with Olivia! Words to describe Olivia include: loving, thoughtful, intelligent, caring, and dependable. We are definitely returning and highly recommend Olivia to anyone!”

About: I’ve been around and taken care of dogs of every kind my entire life basically. Neighbors, friends and family have relied on me since I was a little girl to walk, feed and bathe their pets. I currently dog sit full time, so I’ll have plenty of time to play with your pups! I’m available for boarding all seven days of the week at anytime of need! I have a spacious yard and two friendly female dogs(both spayed) to keep your fur baby company. I can easily crate your dog if needed.

“Meghan and Divyajyothi were amazing with my pup! They took great care of him while I was away and made sure to send me pictures consistently. They were super flexible and I am so thankful they were able to keep my pup. I would highly recommend trusting them with your pup!”
