Top rated Ellington pet boarders

“Brittany was AMAZING! Our dog, Bailey was only 18 weeks old and she knew all the right things to do with a puppy. We never worried once about his care. She sent pictures every day of his antics which made us laugh but also convinced us that he was happy and loved. She was in tune with his quirky personality, from his removal of ALL the toys from the toy box before deciding what to play with, to helping with the laundry by stealing the socks, to proudly carrying things around that he “found” . AND Brittany was reasonably priced. We will use her again in a heartbeat. We felt so incredibly blessed to have found her. We can’t thank her enough for making our vacation stress free.”


“Kimberly, Victor, and Luke were amazing with Dr. Phil, they made it very easy and comfortable for me to leave my fur baby in their care. I will definitely use them again. Thank you guys”


“Aishea sent us updates about our dog daily along with videos and pictures. I could tell my dog and her's got along. She took him on a hike at the park by her house. I would definitely book with her again if I need to be in the area.”


“Jill and Sean were super kind and accommodating with my old doggie. He came home happy and they were able to be flexible when my schedule shifted. Thanks for taking good care of Bugsy.”


“Rosie took to Tiffani immediately and had a wonderful time there. It’s her new home away from home! Tiffani is a true dog person and you can sense it the second you meet her. Thanks again!”


“From the meet and greet we had I knew she would take great care of Ethan while I was away. She was very responsive and so incredibly friendly and seemed to understand his body language. She is amazing and I am definitely going to book with her again!”


“First time using Rover and had a great experience with Keith & Ashley. Had last minute travel plans come up and they were very accommodating and kept me updated and in the loop all weekend. My dog is anxious and has some separation anxiety and they made him feel right at home.”



“Karen is fantastic! My dog Jackson loves staying at her house with her two little dogs. She sends lots of photos and Jackson always looks happy. She is a great sitter!”

“Liz took excellent care of our two dogs over a long weekend. She kept us updated on how they were doing with texts and photos. We would definitely contact Liz again to watch our guys.”


“Elliott took excellent care of my golden retriever. He responded promptly to all communications, sent me regular updates and photos, and even let her sleep on his bed! He was kind and understanding when I had to shorten my dogs’ stay due to a family emergency.”



“Lily loved her stay with Andrea and Kurt! We are so thankful to have such peace of mind, knowing she is well taken care of and happy to be there. The fenced in yard is fantastic, Andreas dogs Hazel and Penny are now Lily’s pet friends! My husband Dave and I are retired and looking forward to being able to travel. It’s such a wonderful feeling knowing we have a family with a loving home to care for Lily. Andrea is exceptional at sending photos through out the stay, it is very reassuring to see”

“I would book with Olivia again , she updates me with pictures of cash to show me that she was in good hands. She communicates with me fast and responsive and the booking was on short notice, so I really appreciate her and most importantly cash love it there and she had alot of fun”


“Emily and her family were wonderful to our dog Charlie. Communication was great before and throughout his extended stay. Emily sent cute pictures and gave updates. Charlie is happy to be back home but I honestly think he misses Emily’s dog Brady and the whole family.”


About: I have an Associates degree in veterinary science technology. I have a few years of experience working as a vet tech before deciding to pursue an accounting/business degree in hopes of starting a rescue kennel business someday. I also have 2 years of experience dog sitting for neighbors who are away on vacation. Services I have provided include grooming such as bathing, trimming nails, and ear cleaning. I can also give medication if needed. I am available almost every weekend to spend time with fur babies :) I am available on the weekdays Tuesday-Friday early in the morning, and after 5pm to spend evening times with them as well. I keep my home “dog proof” meaning I spend a lot of time cleaning and making sure no hazards are on the floor that dogs may be curious to eat. I keep the living room spacious and hallway open for play time and potential zoomies. Bedroom and bathroom will be closed off for additional safety. I will always ask about any allergies as a precaution, and will confirm what they are allowed to eat before feeding them. Water will always be provided. There is a beautiful walking trail very close by I spend time on walking dogs and making sure they’re well exercised. I have one small beagle at home who is very friendly and quiet.

Julia W.
“Julia has watched my dog Kili for as long as he's been alive (3 years). Having previous vet tech experience, I will always choose Julia over anyone else. Not only does she know how to adapt to my dogs needs, she loves animals first and foremost and it shows whenever she takes care of Kili. I have given her detailed rules and needs for my dog many times and she always follows them perfectly. I love that she also gives feedback on how my dog is doing both while I am away and when I return to him. Lastly, Kili is a Labrador that has high energy and needs lots of exercise so he's not anxious. Despite his large size, Julia is more than comfortable playing with Kili. Anytime I come home from vacation, he is knocked out on the couch for hours which makes me very happy. It is for these reasons that I strongly recommend Julia for any dog owner and can confidently say you will not be disappointed with her results.”
