“Monica and her family was great with my Giovanna, I’m already to book my next stay with her for my two week vacation. We received updates on how our puppy was doing. She went on walks it was like she was home away from home. So much better than placing her in a kennel. Monica and family will be my puppy new extended family. I can now relax while going away :-) thank you Monica for taking such good care of Giovanna”

“This was our trial run overnight stay for a longer stay we have coming up. Chris lives in a lovely area with a nice little fenced yard for the dogs to play and do their business. He has a cute smaller female mixed breed of his own. Our Finley over other dogs and had good playtime with her. I like that Chris only takes one doggie client at a time so that I know Finley will get the attention and care that he needs. Based on our successful overnight I am going to book Chris for our long trip. I don’t like making recommendations after only one overnight but I am confident that I will be doing just that after his next stay.”
“I recently boarded my dog with Leila J. and couldn't be more pleased with the experience. From the moment I dropped off my pup, it was clear that Leila J. genuinely loves and cares for dogs. The facility was clean, well-maintained, and provided a comfortable, safe environment for my dog. Minnie came home happy, healthy, and well-exercised, which shows that they received plenty of attention and playtime. I especially appreciated the regular updates and photos Leila J. sent during the stay. It gave me peace of mind knowing that my dog was in such good hands. Overall, I highly recommend Leila J. to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and professional dog boarding service.”
“My experience with Jennifer could not have been more satisfying! During my greeting session I felt very confident in Jen’s ability to take great care of my dog Sophie while I traveled.She is very responsive to me and extremely professional. Jen communicated with me throughout my time away so could be assured thar everything was going smoothly. My dog Sophie had a great stay and I was able to enjoy my time away with out any concerns. I have two additional timeframes booked already!”

About: I have two German Shepherds, one Belgian Malinois, one Shepsky, and this Jack Russell mix that completes this motley crew. I am a nurse who finds solace and stress relief in spending time with and caring for animals, especially dogs. I’d love to help you out with your pups if they need walks or playtime. I have cared for medically fragile dogs in the past and will follow your, or the vets, instructions as needed. I have over one acre of land for your dogs to play if they are to board in my home. I am home most of the time in the summer. If you have any questions, just ask! I’m a school nurse now, so I’m off during the summer months and holidays. I run errands sometimes during the day, or step out to walk dogs. I’m not gone for long. My schedule will change during the school year, but I will be home late afternoons and weekends. If I’m dropping in only, I’ll play with your pup and clean up any messes they’ve made or follow your instructions. If I’m taking them for a walk, I take a few minutes to get to know them if they haven’t met me before or play to say hi. Water bowls are cleaned and refilled before I leave. Big dogs subject to bloat - I let them calm down if panting after a walk before watering/feeding. If they’re in my home, they’re treated like royalty along with my pack. Introductions are done outside so that there’s no tension. Everyone is playing and the meeting is casual. I look to you for information on their personalities and care. I have an invisible fence for my dogs. If your dog is familiar and trained, I can provide a collar. I’m also experienced and trained with the e collar if that’s how your pup was trained. It will never be used as punishment.
About: We’ve had many dogs from small to large over the last 18 years. We’d love to take care of your pets so you can unwind and unplug. We are around most weekends over the summer to walk/ board your pets. During the week, we work full time but can stop in before and after work and before bed. We will treat your dog as one of our own. Dogs are allowed on the furniture and bed. We have a large fenced in backyard for exercise and play. Our 3 kids will tire out your pup. Unfortunately our daughter is allergic to cats so we can’t board them but we’d love to drop in to feed/ play with them.
“Amy was great with our senior dog. He can get confused in new situations and Amy and Riley (her dog) were both very patient. In the end, it was obvious that Marley had a great week and he came home with a renewed spirit. Thanks, Amy!”
