“10/10 very sweet family. Great communication , sent lots of updates and photos while we were gone. Cost less than the kennel and Maisey had a great time with a local family so It was a win for everyone ! Would highly recommend them to anyone looking for boarding and will definitely use them for any vacations in the future :)”

I know she is well taken care of because she is always a happy dog when I pick her up. I would recommend Ingrida because it’s obvious she is a dog lover and treats your pet as her own!”

This was our first time using Rover, so we were concerned for his care since typically he stays with family members that he’s accustomed to. He greeted us in his typical nature after being away from us. We appreciate the care that she provided and wouldn’t have any hesitation in having her watch our dog again.”


“Danielle was awesome, and totally put us at ease for Mack’s first time staying away from home without mom and dad.

Anytime we need to board Mack, Danielle will be our first choice!”

About: I bring patience, genuine love, and experience to every pet I care for. Whether it’s a lively puppy needing basic training and socialization or a senior pet requiring gentle care and medication, I adapt my approach to fit their unique needs. I’m comfortable administering medications, reinforcing commands like sit and stay, and providing extra cuddles or calm companionship when needed. What truly sets me apart is my dedication to communication—I keep you updated with photos and messages so you always feel connected and confident. Your pet’s comfort and happiness are my top priorities, and I treat every animal like part of my family. Pet care is a natural part of my everyday life—I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals and make it a priority in my schedule. Whether it’s morning walks, midday check-ins, or cozy evenings with a furry friend, I structure my day to make sure each pet gets the time, attention, and care they deserve. I’m dependable, flexible, and committed to making your pet feel safe, loved, and at home—whether it’s just for a day or a whole week. In your home, I focus on keeping your pet’s routine as normal and comforting as possible. I follow all feeding, potty, and playtime instructions closely and give plenty of love, attention, and gentle care. I make sure your pet feels safe, whether that means playtime, cuddles, or simply keeping things calm and quiet.
