Dog Boarding In Dolphin Isles

“Juan Pablo took excellent care of our two dogs. He sent us regular pics and videos. He provided a positive social environment with his dog and other neighbour’s dogs. It was like one big Chi family. We had a great time on our vacation knowing our dogs were well taken care of. The peace of mind is priceless!”

Sam & Joseph S.

“Finding someone you trust to watch your dog is a big deal! Adrian was wonderful with Mica and sent many pictures where he looked very happy. The doggy playmates were wonderful for him. Adrian has an obvious love and compassion and it shows in Mica when he came home. We will be using her again.”

Mary S.

“Angela was an excellent dog sitter. She kept me updated with pictures and phone calls. I recommend her as she was extremely loving and caring to my dogs. I left on vacation knowing that they were in their second home.”

Dana E.

“Banksy had wonderful time with Gregory. He sent plenty of pictures and updates. He was also so understanding of Banksy's medical needs. We look forward to using him again.”

Crystal G.

“Such a great experience for both myself and doggie Cloe! Cloe felt like home and part of the pack, and I was in peace the whole time. Carmel was flexible on drop off and pick up times, which made it easy to coordinate. I also received pics of Cloe and the pack which made me feel so calm as I knew Cloe was in good hands. Carmel and Mark will be my first pick next time I have to travel without my baby Cloe.”

“Taylor was amazing with my dog Ozzy! She kept me updated, made me feel completely comfortable while I was away, and treated him like her own. Ozzy was so happy and well taken care of when I got back. I would absolutely trust Taylor again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter!”

“Jessica was an amazing sitter I can tell my puppy was well taken care of and had lots of fun. He seemed sad a few days after getting back lol that’s how much fun he had! She was very communicative and sent lots of pics. She was also very patient as he did have an accident in her house. I would book again and any owner can feel comfortable leaving their dogs in her care!”

Lindsey L.

“Dawson has had an amazing time with Payal over the past several days — I’ve been getting the sweetest updates throughout the day, from adorable videos to cute photos that truly show how well she’s caring for him. On top of that, Payal has been incredibly accommodating with my demanding work schedule, always flexible and easy to work with. I couldn’t be happier with the experience and highly recommend her!​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​”

“This was my puppies first time with a sitter! Natalie did a wonderful job, he had a blast and was taken great care of! Can’t recommend her enough!”

Cohen S.

“Arlen was great. We did a meet and greet before boarding to make sure everything was a good fit, and Lady, who is normally a very anxious dog, seemed super comfortable right away and immediately started exploring the space. Arlen sent daily pictures and was very accommodating throughout the stay. My flight was canceled the day I was supposed to pick Lady up, and Arlen truly saved the day by being flexible and able to continue accommodating her. It spared me the added stress of worrying about boarding plans while already dealing with the stress of canceled travel. I would absolutely book with him again.”

Christine R.

“We are so happy that we have found Ariel. The videos she sent kept me feeling good because I could see them having fun! As Rover sitters ourselves, we really appreciated that she went above and beyond to make us feel relaxed about our pups being with her! Especially since we requested her service at the last minute and didn't have an opportunity to meet her prior to the boarding date. She sent ideos of them playing. Videos of them eating. And videos of them relaxing! That went a long way in makingme feel relaxed aboutthem beingwith her. ! She's the first sitter that operates as we do and I'm so thankful for it! We will definitely be back whenever we need a sitter! If you're looking for a dedicated sitter, Ariel is definitely the one!”

Jerrie & Freeman W.

“Fantastic experience and great communication before, during and even after our dog’s stay. We got a clean, healthy and happy dog back after 10 days. Clean house with fenced backyard, we will certainly be return customers!”

“Karlee was the most amazing dog sitter! My dog completely fell in love with her! She was very caring, attentive, and sent me tons of pics and videos, which I loved! She’s amazing!”

Kelly B.

“Our dog’s second stay with Jerrie & Freeman was just as wonderful as the first. They provided such attentive, thoughtful care and kept us consistently updated throughout, which gave us real peace of mind. It’s clear our dog felt comfortable and had an amazing time with them. We’ll absolutely be back whenever we need care again.”

Kenneth C.

“This is my first time using Nicole and she was fantastic. Very communicative and put me at ease leaving Chloe with her. She sent multiple pictures and videos throughout her stay there and it looked like she was well cared for and had a great time playing with the other dogs there. Would definitely recommend her and will absolutely be using her again.”

Carly A.

“If Freddie could talk, I think he'd tell me that Edith was great. He came home super happy and Edith kept me posted during the whole visit. She took really good care of him. I would definitely utilize her services again. Thanks Edith!”

About: I’ve always been an animal lover. I raised two dogs from puppyhood. Lucy lived to 18, and my current pup, Porscha, is now 14. I also have a 15 year old cat, AppleJack, I’ve had since she was a kitten. So I know what it’s like to care for pets at every stage of life, from playful zoomies to slower senior strolls. I started pet sitting because I wasn’t looking to commit to another full time pet, but I still wanted to spend my days caring for animals and helping fellow pet parents. Whether it’s a quick walk, overnight stay, or just some company while you’re away, I’m here to give your pet the love and attention they deserve. I’m especially great with: Puppies and senior pets Shy or anxious animals Keeping routines and providing lots of updates (with cute pics!) At Playful Paws, your pet will feel safe, loved, and totally at home. I work fully remote, and so does my husband, which gives us the flexibility to provide consistent, attentive care throughout the day. Whether your pet needs a morning walk, a midday check-in, or some evening cuddles, we’re usually home and available to help. Being remote means your pet won’t be left alone for long periods, and we can easily adjust to their routine. Weekdays, weekends, we’re here to keep tails wagging and whiskers happy. Whether your pet is staying with me or I’m visiting them in your home, their safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I treat every pet like they’re my own, with patience, love, and respect for their routine. At home, I create a calm, pet-friendly environment with cozy spaces, a clean setting, and plenty of playtime. My husband and I both work remotely, so someone’s almost always home for companionship and supervision. In your home, I’m mindful of your space and your pet’s habits. I follow instructions closely, whether that’s meal times, meds, or favorite toys, and I always keep things tidy and secure. You’ll get regular updates and photos so you can relax knowing your fur baby is in caring, capable hands.

“Kathye was great from the very beginning! We just recently moved here and had to fly to Michigan for a wedding, and she was very accommodating. Our dog is clingy, but she didn’t seem too worried about that. She sent updates and pictures of Lou every day, which made me so much more comfortable. He also came back with a goody bag and smelling great from a bath. Thank you Kathye!”

“Kelly is the absolute BEST! From the moment we arrived my fur baby felt at ease and was excited to play. Her home is clean and has a doggy summer camp vibe with all the toys she provides! Rosie is very attached to me so I felt at ease with all the photos and videos Kelly provided me of Rosie having fun! To be honest, I think Rosie was a litttle sad to leave. I will definitely be using Kelly again and would 10 out of 10 recommend her!”
