Pet Boarding Hixson

“Bethani was great and it seemed my dog really enjoyed being with her. She accommodated our every need and even helped extend my dog’s stay without me having to do a thing. I will definitely send my dog back to her.”

“I am SO glad we found Kristen! We boarded our dog Rosie for almost a week and couldn't be more pleased with the experience. Prior to booking and leaving Rosie on her first day, Kristen was very attentive and made sure everyone was calm and comfortable in the new environment. Then she sent plenty of pictures of everyone happy and healthy playing in the HUGE backyard. It's a relief knowing that we have someone to care for Rosie, where she'll get love and exercise, if we're ever out of town!”

About: Animals are my life. I’ve had pets since I was a baby and they mean everything to me. I love all and will care for them in any way they need and especially love seeing all the different personalities. I currently have two cats, and dog and a rabbit of my own. My dog does have special needs, which comes along with some anxiety, but he’s really good with other animals. I typically work from home throughout the week but do leave for meetings and showings (real estate agent). That being said, It is a pretty flexible job, so I can work with you to make sure something works out. Every morning my pets are the first task. Taking the dog out, giving my dog his medicine, feeding and making sure all pets have food water. I like to make sure that my pets, and others, are fed and let out on the schedule. If the schedule is a little different than normal, I like to make sure their needs are taken care of at an appropriate time. I don’t want them being hungry, need water or ever have to hold going to the bathroom too long.

“Joyce and her homeschooled kids took stellar care of Misha, and updated me with pictures daily! Your dog will certainly be exhausted (a good thing!) when they come home due to all of the attention they will get from her family. Fully recommend!”

About: I’ve taken care of my brothers, friends, and family’s dogs periodically throughout the decades and have now personally had my own pup for going on 3 years. I make it a point to give each dog, whether it’s mine or someone’s else’s a fun and good life to live. A dormant unattended to dog bothers me to no end so your dog would be in not only great hands but hands that will actively pursue making your dad have the best day! I currently work weekends at the hospital so most of my week days are free and clear! I’m a natural night owl so being up late isn’t a problem either I live in a fenced/gated town home community with extremely friendly neighbors who all have dogs. We have a gated dog park for all the dogs to mingle and play as well as many parks and fields surrounding the home to where they can get exercise! Each dog will be directly cared for 1 on 1 with me in my townhome to ensure proper care

“Mandy and herr family treated Dude like family! The children played with him daily and he loved playing with their dogs as well. Mandy sent daily updates with pictures and videos. If you’re looking for someone to care for your dog like their own, I would highly recommend Mandy!”

“Kyle took excellent care of my Sally! He sent several pictures, and he took her on an outing and a walk. I’m sure she loved that! Kyle was also flexible with my pickup time, which I appreciated.”

About: I currently have a bloodhound and 4 cats, as well as a foster dog. My had my last dog for 15 years, so I am very experienced in senior dog care. Old doggos have a special place in my heart. I am self employed so I have a fairly flexible schedule so I can usually work around anything that might be needed or come up. I have a fenced in yard as well as a doggie door so dogs have constant access to the back yard. I also walk dogs 1-2 times a day.

About: I have taken care of animals for years. Pet sitting for friends and family. I went to school for animal science pre-vet and also worked in multiple veterinary hospitals as an assistant. I myself own a Saint Bernard and know what it takes to single handedly take care of a large breed dog. He is socialized, docile, kind, and loves other dogs. He doesn’t have a dominant or aggressive bone in his body thanks to all of my hard work and training and love. My best friend is a local vet and will always be there if anything happens. I have also pet sat for her and she trusts me with all 8 of her animals. I spoil animals but also read them very well and gain their trust. Your animals are safe and loved with me! I am more than willing to do a meet and greet before I officially do any service. If you want me to provide doggy day care or boarding I can bring my big guy to a park and we can meet eachother or I can come over and meet your dog and you before you book me for walking or just drop ins. Whatever makes you the most comfortable with me and your precious baby! I currently work remotely part time. I can add pet sitting to my routine easily. I can attend to any needs and have free time the majority of the time. I live in an apartment and have a dog that can keep your fur baby company. He is a Saint Bernard and neutered. He is docile and doesn’t have an aggressive bone in his body. A professional trainer even said he is the most happy go lucky dog he’s ever seen. Your fur baby will have a great time playing with him. He is also great with cats. He has three cat siblings. My cats are good with other cats I just ask you confirm your cats are feline leukemia negative if you want your kitty to stay here. If you want your cat to stay here but not be with the other cats I can make arrangements so they don’t interact. My apartment is a one bedroom but spacious. The complex has a dog park and plenty of places to walk and enjoy time. The dog park is usually empty so it’ll just be yours and mine fur baby. I have a large and extra large crate so you don’t need to provide one if your dog is crate trained. My car is a Chevrolet blazer and large so it can carry large breed and small breed dogs safely. The community I live in is nice and not far from multiple parks I can take your dog too as well. I am home all the time and work remotely so I can pet sit and board.

“We cannot say enough about Katelyn and how she took such excellent care of our Charlie. She treated him like he was her own baby. She sent us so many pictures so we felt great while we were away. I cannot thank her enough! Charlie definitely fell in love with her. When we came today to get him, he seemed sad to leave her. Charlie obviously had a wonderful time! We will never trust anyone to care for Charlie except Katelyn in the future. And I know Charlie will be looking forward to being with her too!! If you want to feel comfortable leaving your baby with someone while you are away I highly recommend Katelyn. She is the real deal!!! Kathleen Calabrese”

About: With years of experience providing in-home dog sitting and personalized pet care, I've built lasting relationships with clients who value dependable, attentive, and high-quality care. I understand how important it is to find someone you trust with both your pets and your home, and I pride myself on excellent communication, regular photo updates, and treating every pet like my own. In addition to caring for pets in their own homes, I also offer boarding in my home, which features a fenced backyard for plenty of outdoor time. Since I work from home, I'm able to provide companionship, attention, and a consistent routine throughout the day. I currently have a wonderful group of regular clients and am looking to welcome a few additional families during openings in my schedule. Whether you're planning a weekend getaway or an extended vacation, my goal is to provide a personalized, stress-free experience for both you and your pets so you can travel with complete peace of mind! I do have current/former clients who are happy to provide a review of my services for you. Just ask, and I can connect you! Also, any dates in 2027, please check in about availability. Trying to keep calendar updated, but I always like to give a heads up! I work from home full-time, which allows me to offer a flexible schedule and plenty of attention throughout the day. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine, with opportunities for regular potty breaks, outdoor playtime in my fenced backyard, walks, and companionship. I'm able to maintain each pet's established routine and accommodate their individual needs. I also have years of experience providing overnight care in clients' homes and am comfortable adjusting my schedule to ensure pets receive the attention and consistency they're accustomed to. My goal is to make every pet feel comfortable, loved, and well cared for while their family is away! I want every pet in my care to feel like they're getting their own little vacation while their family is away! Whether they're staying with me or I'm staying with them, I take the time to learn their habits, favorite activities, and all the little things that make them happy. At my home, pets are welcome to make themselves comfortable, enjoy the fenced backyard, and get plenty of attention throughout the day. When I'm caring for pets in their own homes, I do my best to keep everything familiar and comfortable, from their favorite spot on the couch to their usual bedtime routine. I'm also very mindful of the trust that comes with being welcomed into someone's home. I take pride in leaving things just as I found them and making sure everything is taken care of while you're away. I'm always happy to accommodate special requests, and I believe the little details make all the difference!

“Beth was amazing! She was very communicative and kept us updated the entire time, sending so many pictures of our dogs which we really appreciated. It gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. We would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter!”
