Dog Boarding Homewood

“Melissa was amazing with my australian shepherd Levi! She was super flexible about scheduling, communicative during his stay, shared lots of photos and videos, and has a lovely dog-friendly set up. I felt reassured knowing Levi was in good hands while we were away and he came back from his stay a happy pup! We will definitely be using Melissa again!”

About: I provide highly capable, active care for mountain dogs. My shepherd maremma mix, Lumi, and I hit the trails daily - a flexible schedule finishing up my Master's degree means I have plenty of time for dedicated supervision. We have a fully fenced yard and are a quick walk to the forest. For your absolute peace of mind, I hold an active Wilderness EMT certification and my daily trail kit includes a canine-specific tourniquet. Very flexible as I wrap up grad school. We long walk early in the morning to beat the crowds, ensuring the doogo(s) gets open space for off-leash exercise when the environment is safest from distraction. Lumi is a solid regulator and grew up teasing coyotes on an unfenced 15acres. We'll keep a good watch. *Reminder that Rover applies a 25% surcharge to the prices that we set - and then they hit you with another 11% :(

“Leilah was very communicative and easy to schedule with. She did great with our pup and he came home very happy! Will definitely use her again.”

“Anton was amazing. Not only did he take care of my free small for kids. I’m short notice but he kept me updated and let me know how sweet they all were. Even better when the fur kids got home they were so excited to be around him and definitely fell in love. There were a few little whimpers once they saw him leave. Anton is definitely a repeat sitter and has gained my trust very rapidly. Thank you very much for taking care of my little fur family members.”

About: I’ve spent most of my life around dogs and understand that every pup has their own personality, pace, and needs. I raised my own dog for nearly 18 years after rescuing him, and that experience taught me patience, consistency, and how to truly care for a dog through every stage of life. Beyond that, I’ve helped care for dogs of all sizes and temperaments—from walking large, high-energy huskies to spending extended time with senior dogs who need a slower, more attentive approach. I focus on creating a calm, safe, and positive experience so your dog feels comfortable and cared for while you’re away. My goal is simple: to treat your dog like they’re my own and give you peace of mind knowing they’re in good hands. I work from home, which allows me to maintain a flexible and consistent schedule throughout the day. I’m available for morning, afternoon, and evening walks or check-ins, and I can easily adapt to your dog’s routine. Because I’m home most of the time, your dog won’t experience long gaps without care or attention. I do step out occasionally for the gym or quick errands, but these are brief and planned around any bookings. When appropriate, I also enjoy bringing dogs along for safe outdoor time like relaxed walks or fresh air. My goal is to provide dependable, attentive care so your dog feels comfortable and you feel confident. I focus on creating a calm, safe, and structured environment where dogs feel secure and well cared for. In my home, I live in a single-story house with a fully fenced yard that allows for safe outdoor time and easy supervision. The space has previously been home to multiple dogs, so it’s well-suited and comfortable for them. I always prioritize safety by monitoring interactions, keeping a clean environment, and following any specific instructions you provide. In a client’s home, I stick closely to your dog’s established routine to reduce stress and maintain consistency. My approach is patient, attentive, and built on trust—treating every dog as if they were my own.

“Kate is such a kind and sweet carer. Her house has an adventurous, fun backyard and is lovely, welcoming and neat inside. Our dog had so much fun with her three dogs. Kate sent us so many videos and photos. Thank you Kate!!”

“Scooter, my 3 year old boy dog had the best experience with Andrea, Henry and their whole family. Andrea was a great communicator before and during the stay. Henry took Scooter on so many walks and gave him endless snuggles. Thank you both, Scooter misses you and the chipmunks!”

“Nicole was amazing. It was the first time we used the app and she was such a doll. So caring and sweet with our 5 month old puppy. She sent us picture updates which made us feel so at ease. The true testament of how great she was when we got him home, he was so calm and content which I think shows of how well he was looked after with her. There will definitely be more stays in the future with Nicole.Thanks again!”

“Both of our dogs had a great weekend at Megan’s house. We highly recommend her as a Rover and will definitely re-book her the next time we travel.”

“We continue to use Susan every time we go out of town. We love knowing he is going to be taken care of, and that he gets to spend his days on long hikes playing with Susan and her dogs. Thank you Susan!”

Ryan & Whitney W.

“Gissell is amazing! I had to drop my dog McGee off around 5:15am on a Friday and she was already up and excited to meet McGee! She sent pics throughout the day and I found out that he likes doing yoga! Thank you Gissell for your time! I hope to have him visit again soon.”

About: I have dedicated my life to the car of animals. I have been training dogs for 30 years. I have been involved with animals for my whole career.

About: Dogs are part of the family in my home, and I’ll treat yours the same way. I have a large yard with plenty of room to play and relax, and dogs are welcome to make themselves comfortable inside (including cuddling up on the couch). I have experience with dogs of different sizes, ages, and energy levels. My family includes a larger Labradoodle and a small Chihuahua/Terrier mix, both older, so I am also very comfortable with senior dogs and their needs. My goal is for your dog to feel safe, loved, and completely at home while they’re here. Pet care is already part of my everyday routine since I have dogs of my own. I work from home often and have plenty of flexibility for playtime, potty breaks, attention, and lots of cuddles. Your dog will be included in my normal family routine and get plenty of time both inside outside in my large yard. I have a large fenced yard with plenty of space for dogs to play and explore safely. Inside, dogs are treated like family and are welcome to relax, including on the couch. I have both a larger Labradoodle and a small Chihuahua/Terrier mix, so I am very comfortable with different sizes and personalities. Our dogs are older and my home is relaxed, loving, and dog-friendly.

About: I have worked with dogs and cats going back to my childhood. I walked dogs with a dog walking service and for family and friends as well I work part time so I have a flexible schedule and can work your needs in as needed. I have days and nights available. Please contact me for more information. I follow the owners instructions exactly, send daily updates, monitor health and well being, provide exercise/walks, and I provide cleaning services as needed for the owner.
