Dog Boarding in Denton

Please read all information below carefully before messaging me:

I run and own Canine Cowboy – A cozy, kennel-free dog resort in a newly remodeled 1960s farm house. I have several years of experience handling dogs in large playgroups and I am expertly trained in dog behavior and handling. My doggie journey began as a volunteer for the SPCA of Texas where I helped train dogs basic obedience commands to help make them more adoptable. I also helped do behavior evaluations to determine the best family to fit the dogs needs. I have since moved on to a smaller local rescue and have fostered over 70 dogs of all shapes, sizes, and personalities in the last 4 years. I am also a member of the International Boarding & Pet Services Association.

I provide a safe, fun, and relaxing environment for furry family members. My dogs are my children and I love to spoil dogs and have fun with them!

******All new guests are required to complete a meet and greet prior to booking any boarding or daycare stays. *******

Meet and greets are conducted at my dog resort, Canine Cowboy in Aubrey, TX. Meet and greets typically take 2-3 hours and I will contact you when your dog is ready for pick up. During the meet and greet your dog will be assessed on whether or not they will be a good fit for our environment. All dogs must be spayed/neutered, not be aggressive towards other dogs or people, and up-to-date on vaccines and flea/tick prevention.

I work in the tradeshow & convention industry and I’m on a 90-day unpaid leave until June 30th. I’m expanding my services to include walking and house sitting during this time. If you are working from home and need some quiet time for your conference calls or if you need undistracted study time for your kids - I’m happy to assist :)

I've been dog sitting for my co-workers since 2008 and they call my place auntie Satomi's. They suggested extending the service to other busy professionals and families.

I do not have a certain drop-off/pick up time frame, but please make an appointment before your visit.

My service includes text/email photos and videos, and FaceTime.

I prefer to watch dogs at my house but I can do check-ins and overnight stay depending on my schedule. I also have experience with cats, hamsters, guinea pigs, fish, and birds.

Mature couple owned by 3 dogs offers the best way for your dog to stay when you are away. We have a large home near Lake Lewisville on .75 acre with an 8-foot fenced back yard and pool. Bryan is a retired Fortune 500 executive and Lynda works from home full time as a freelance writer. Both of us are dog rescue volunteers.

We have plenty of space to play and provide the perfect playmates in three gentle rescue pals – two Golden Retrievers (Cody and Sawyer) and a Great Pyrenees mix (Chance). Before your stay, we would love for you to come over for a meet-and-greet so you can feel comfortable leaving your dog with us and we can get to know your pet’s personality and needs.

While you’re gone, we are happy to text or email you photos and updates so you have complete peace of mind. If you want to supply any of your dog’s favorite toys or treats, please feel free to bring those – but we have plenty here as well!

Why I love dog sitting

We have lived in Little Elm for 14 years and are active volunteers for Golden Retriever Rescue of North Texas (you will see a lot of Bryan’s photos on the GRRNT website and Facebook page). We adopted both our Goldens from GRRNT, and have fostered their rescues in our home. We are both hopeless dog lovers, and our boys are spoiled – yours will be a welcome addition to our very happy pack!

About my yard

Our back yard is dog heaven! A half-acre of grass, trees and bushes that is kept free of dog doody and a pool for pooches that like to splash around. The pool has a large platform where they can stand if they just want to get a drink or get their feet wet. The yard is fully fenced with an 8-foot wooden fence and gates are kept locked at all times. There is also a large covered porch and lots of shade.

My experience administering medication

Yes, since we have three dogs, we are experienced with and comfortable in administering medication

Studied and worked as a vet tech for 8 yrs as well as become a certified trainer. My love for dogs took me into raising and showing for many years in the AKC ring as well as field training German Shorthairs. I now have 2 "kids." Rowley my weimaraner and Roxy is a cocker spaniel. The 3 of us love welcoming new friends in our home:) we have a doggie door for free range to go in and out(that is locked at night or if I'm not home) into the well fenced 1 acre yard. Plenty of room to run and play! Its very important to me that your little baby looks at my house as their second home. Ive had many dogs come to me that had anxiety about staying and by the time they left they were happy and relaxed. Thats what I strive for is to make sure your pet is happy and having fun so they are tired when they go home but always excited to come back:-)

**We are open, available and practicing social distancing for pick up and drop off. Meet and greets can be done via Zoom**

Welcome to Buster’s Buddies!

This is a place for Buster and his Buddies to relax, play, refresh, get treats, and go on adventures!

I provide a home away from home experience. While your dogs are in our care, they’ll be part of our family. They’ll go on walks, get treats, get played with, and be interacted with as much as their hearts desire. I am flexible and realize every dog needs different care and I’ll do my best to provide it. I have owned and cared for small, medium and large dogs. Pitbulls, German Shepherds, Akitas, tea cup yorkie, toy poodles, labs and golden retrievers are some of the breeds I have owned and/or have cared for/fostered. I have experience with the youngest of pups to sweet seniors. My entire goal is for you to feel secure leaving your dog in my care.

I have a warm, cozy home with a big yard, and can provide a home away from home for your dog.

**I am home full time, have a flexible schedule. i take last minute/emergency/same day drop off’s for day care and boarding**
