Dog Boarding In Hillsdale

“Our Standard Poodle pup had the best doggie vacation ever during his stay with Mario. He got lots of playtime, walks, and social time with other dogs. Mario was great -- always responsive, and willing to help us with medication needs and with some socialization challenges our pup was having.”

“Irina was a fantastic dog sitter for our Sophie! She clearly loved her, and we could tell Sophie was happy and well cared for the whole time. Irina sent lots of updates, which gave us great peace of mind. We’d happily book her again and highly recommend her!”

“Stephen and Maggie are fantastic! They looked after my very timid labradoodle for over a month and he settled in so well that he wasn't sure he wanted to come home. I'm so grateful to be able to travel without worries because I know that Loki is in the best of hands with them. Thank you!!”

“We cannot book any travel until we are sure Al is available to take care of our pointer, Bonnie. Perfect situation for her --big yard to explore, other dogs to play with, her own bed inside. Al takes great care of her and we are so grateful!!”

“Sriram is a fantastic sitter! I’ve had mixed luck in the past, but he exceeded all expectations. My dog was treated like family, enjoying tons of walks and play in a safe, spotless home. Sriram’s constant updates and photos gave me total peace of mind. I picked up a happy, relaxed pup who clearly enjoyed his 'vacation’ lol. We will absolutely be booking with Sriram and his awesome family again!”

“Savanna was such a caring dog sitter for Chloe. Lots of walks and love. She was also really nice when I had a travel issue that was my fault and made me 12 hours late.”

Rick W.

“I used Jalen on short notice for watching (boarding) my hound dog for an extended period of time of three weeks over the holidays. We met personally at a local park so he could meet my cantankerous pooch and Jalen was enthusiastic to watch my dog. Jalen sent pictures, kept in touch with me whenever I reached out. Highly recommended!”

“Olivia and her boyfriend were wonderful! They watched my dog at their place for 3 nights and were so kind to my dog, did everything just right, and sent updates with pictures. I will definitely be back!!”

“Karla took good care of dog and sent pictures. She was responsive to my messages as well as flexible with pickup and drop off times. Will be glad to request her services again in future.”

About: What sets me apart is the combination of hands-on experience with dogs of all ages and temperaments, along with the level of care and attention I genuinely put into every dog I look after. I’ve worked closely with a young puppy, attending training sessions and learning how to reinforce positive behaviors and create an environment where a dog can thrive. I’m comfortable continuing training routines, maintaining structure, and helping puppies build good habits. On the other end of the spectrum, I also have experience caring for senior dogs who require extra patience and support—whether that’s assisting with mobility, following specific diets, or adapting to hearing and vision loss. I regularly dog sit for friends with very different needs, from high-energy dogs who need multiple long walks a day to older dogs who require a slower pace and more hands-on care. I’ve also cared for multiple dogs at once, making sure each one gets the individual attention they need. I pride myself on being adaptable and attentive, tailoring my care to each dog’s personality, routine, and comfort level. Beyond experience, what truly sets me apart is how deeply I care. I treat every dog like family, not just a job. I’ve even gone out of my way on multiple occasions to help neighbors find their lost dogs and have successfully helped reunite them with their owners several times. I believe it’s our responsibility to create a safe, loving, and positive environment where dogs feel relaxed, happy, and encouraged—and that’s exactly the kind of care I provide every time. I work full-time with a flexible hybrid schedule, which allows me to plan ahead one or two weeks in advance for working on site or at home. On days I go into the office, I can take pups on walks in the early morning or evening. I’m fully available for boarding on weekends, and depending on my work schedule, I can also offer overnight boarding during the week. I do my best to be flexible and accommodate each dog’s routine—whether that means early morning walks, regular potty breaks, or sticking closely to their usual schedule. If your pup is used to a 7am walk, I’m more than happy to start the day early to make sure they feel comfortable and cared for. I prioritize creating a safe, clean, and comfortable environment that helps every dog feel at ease, whether they’re in my home or their own. In my home, I have a private, fenced backyard that’s only accessible through my apartment, so your dog can safely enjoy fresh air. It’s partially covered as well, providing some protection from rain. Inside, I keep my space clean and dog-friendly, with cushioned area rugs to prevent slipping and give dogs a comfortable place to walk, play, or relax. I also provide cozy blankets and an outdoor dog bed so they have options for resting wherever they feel most comfortable. Cleanliness and routine are very important to me—I wash food bowls after each use and refresh water bowls daily. Dogs are welcome on my furniture, but I always respect and follow your home rules to maintain consistency. If your dog isn’t allowed on furniture, I will reinforce those same boundaries. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I’m very respectful of their space and attentive to instructions. I carefully follow all provided routines, house rules, and notes to ensure your dog experiences as much consistency and comfort as possible while you’re away.

“Jenisa was a great caretaker for our Kaya. She took care of our dog for 3 nights and would send photo updates. It was super simple scheduling pick up and drop off times. If Jenisa is available we would recommend choosing her next time you need someone to look after your doggo!”

“James and Jasmine are hands-down the best dog sitters we’ve ever used. They are incredibly professional and took the time to understand Toby’s specific routine and needs. It was clear from the start that they genuinely love dogs and treated our Toby as their own. They were super reliable and kept us up to date with Toby's activities and sent us daily pix -- they truly went above and beyond to make sure Toby was comfortable and happy. We will definitely be booking them again! Thanks again guys!”
