Dog Boarding Dawes

“Courtney did a great job! No worries while we were away, and we came back to a calm and happy dog - we will definitely use Courtney's Rover service again.”

“Boarding our 7 month old springer spaniel with Kimberly provided such a peace of mind! She was very responsive and easy to work with from the start. She sent regular updates while we were traveling, which we greatly appreciated, too! Georgie seemed to be quite at home and loved having two friends to play with. At the end of our trip we picked up a happy and tired boy from a fun-filled 6 days. Would absolutely recommend and book with Kimberly again!”

About: Hi, I’m Paula! Animals have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember—I’ve had dogs since I was 8 years old, and caring for them has always come naturally to me. I’m a complete softie for pets, and I do everything in my power to make sure every dog or cat in my care feels safe, loved, and genuinely happy. At home, my family includes two American Bullies and one cat, so I’m very comfortable with multi‑pet households and all the energy, personality, and joy that comes with them. I have a special love for bully breeds, but I truly enjoy working with dogs of all sizes, ages, and temperaments. Because my own pets have needed medication in the past, I’m experienced with administering medicine and keeping pets calm and comfortable during the process. Whether it’s daily routines, special instructions, or extra cuddles, I’m attentive and committed to giving each pet the best experience possible. My home is located in a safe, quiet neighborhood just a few blocks from Medal of Honor Park—perfect for walks, sniff breaks, and outdoor time. I’m also only about 15 minutes from Hophounds, the dog park/bar, which gives me even more options for fun outings when appropriate. If you’re looking for someone who treats your pets like family, pays attention to the little things, and genuinely loves what they do, I’d be honored to care for your furry loved ones. Pet care is already a built‑in part of my everyday life. With two American Bullies and a cat at home, my routine naturally revolves around feeding, walks, playtime, and making sure everyone gets the attention they need. I’m used to managing different personalities and schedules, so adding another pet into my routine feels seamless. Throughout the week, I make time for morning and evening walks, enrichment, cleaning litter boxes, and keeping up with any medications or special instructions. Because caring for animals is something I genuinely enjoy, it never feels like an extra task—it’s just part of how my days flow. Whether it’s daily check‑ins or longer stays, I’m already in the rhythm of providing consistent, loving care. When pets stay in my home, they’re welcomed into a calm, safe, and pet‑friendly environment. I have two American Bullies and a cat, so I’m already used to managing different personalities and making sure everyone feels comfortable. I keep routines consistent with what each pet is used to—regular feeding times, walks, play sessions, enrichment, and plenty of affection. My home is in a quiet neighborhood just blocks from Medal of Honor Park, which makes daily walks and outdoor time easy and enjoyable. When I’m caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on maintaining their normal routine so they feel secure while their family is away. I follow all instructions closely, from feeding and litter care to walks, medication, and any special needs. I take the time to understand each pet’s personality and comfort level, whether that means slow introductions, extra playtime, or simply offering calm companionship. In both settings, my goal is the same: to make every pet feel safe, loved, and well cared for, just like I do with my own animals

“Alexis was amazing! I requested to book with her last min and she accepted. My puppy was well taken care of had a blast!”

Jasmine A.

“We were visiting the area from out of town. Our dog Ronnie is high-needs bc he has DM and has limited use in his hind legs. Laurie was so patient with Ronnie. She sent us pictures daily and kept in touch with us over the 4 day stay. We would highly recommend her!! Ronnie was happy and so are we that our baby was in a loving home!”

Sandy R.

“She was amazing with my dog! She kept me updated the entire time, sending pictures and videos which gave me so much peace of mind. I also really appreciated that she came to meet him the day before so he could get comfortable with her. I would definitely recommend her!”

Chyrstal J.

“Caitlin was such a gem to work with! We needed a last minute sister, she was super flexible and accommodating! She sent pictures throughout the day, was constantly checking in with us, was honest and understanding about our dogs behaviors and did really well to communicate everything that was going on while he was in her care, gave lots of cuddles for our Mr. Kai and he left super happy! We will 10/10 be going back to Caitlin!!! Can not thank you enough for being a rockstar!!!”

Emily S.

“Wynema was great! She was willing to take care of our fur baby even though it was short notice and a holiday weekend. She is super friendly and communication was great. She sent us pics daily. Helped us enjoy our weekend away knowing that our boy was being loved on.”

Amy P.

“Great experience. Large fenced in backyard gave my Corgi lots of room to run and play with Corey's black lab, Abbey. Highly recommend using Corey as a "home away from home" for your pet. ”

Jody C.

“Jennifer is the BEST!! She loved our pup like her own for a long 9 day stay! We got updates multiple times a day and I think Harper was sad to leave her! We won’t be sending her to anyone else!”

Kennedy M.

“Reich and his wife Elizabeth are the best pet sitter team! Bambi takes a lot of time to warm up to people and within 24 hrs he was playing and enjoying walks very happily. He had daily walks and play sessions, and I got photos/videos each time. My search for the perfect pet sitter has ended, I know who I'm rebooking with next time! Thanks again”

Elaine R.

“The best dog care you could ever have. Very friendly, right on time. Everything is comfortable, the service, you can trust her with your dog, worries free. She really makes time to play with your dog and give so much care. She deserve more than the pay she ask for, you will never regret boarding the dog to her, they got back yard and your dog will have so much fun.”

Michelle P.

“Shannon and her family were great! My high energy puppy was well taken care of and looked like he was having a lot of fun. Shannon sent me plenty of pictures and stayed in good contact with me while I was out of town. I will use Shannon again next time I need a sitter!”

Erin C.

“Olivia was incredibly accommodating. I reached out and booked at the last minute to help a fellow grandmother with boarding her two fur babies, and she made the entire process easy and stress-free. Because I was rushing and didn’t know much about the pups, I didn’t realize (or think to ask) that one of them might be in heat. Olivia typically doesn’t accept pups in heat, but given the emergency situation, she graciously worked with us anyway. She even provided pick-up and drop-off, which was a huge help. When she brought them back, it was clear the pups really liked her, and that told me everything. They were well cared for and comfortable with her. I absolutely recommend Olivia for your fur baby boarding needs!”

Mai-Lek N.

“Erin is the absolute best! She loves our dogs like we do. I never have to worry when vacationing and Erin is watching our fur babies.”

Anita S.

“Kate was wonderful! She was very responsive and sent lots of updates! Sadie seemed to have a great time, and we will definitely use Kate again in the future.”

Kendra V.

“Kimberly was great! She kept us up to date with pictures and updates during their entire stay. My pups seemed to have a great time while we were gone! I would definitely use her again”

About: I grew up with dogs. Currently I have a four year old Husky who has turned me into an excellent dog walker. Because he is so high energy, I am familiar with having to keep an energetic dog entertained. My dog keeps me pretty active. Since he is a working-dog breed, I stay active either walking/jogging with him, or checking out the local dog parks. I am happy to go on walks with any dog. Unfortunately my yard is not fenced in, by my house is puppy proof and there is plenty of room to play.

“Tierney did a fantastic job keeping my dogs for a week while we were out of town getting married. My dogs loved her dogs and they all played so hard together. She kept on communication with me and even sent me pictures and videos while we were away. I will hire her again for all my boarding needs.”
