Dog Boarding Independence

“Angeline and Dave were great! We would definitely book through them again. We received daily updates with multiple pictures. They also kept our girl active with daily walks. What I appreciate most was their flexibility. We had a family member pass away while we were on our trip, visiting family in Texas. They were very gracious allowing us to book a few extra days so we could stay with our family for the services. They were awesome!”

“Anthony took great care of Pepper! He made sure she had lots of fun and exercise while my wife and I were in town for our wedding. We really appreciate his flexibility and reliability because it allowed us to have Pepper be a part of the wedding ceremony. He also kept us updated with photos of Pepper having fun.”

“Lindsay took wonderful care of Loki while we were away. She sent daily pictures and updates, which gave us so much peace of mind. It was clear Loki was happy and well loved. He enjoyed daily walks, plenty of bed cuddles, and all the attention he could ask for. We highly recommend Lindsay and would absolutely book with her again.”

“The experience with Stacey was excellent and couldn't have hoped for any better. Stacey made us feel completely comfortable and at ease right from the beginning. She took the time to discuss her previous experience and map out how things were going to take place. She introduced Sydney to the other dogs slowly and in a way that made it very stress free and enjoyable for Sydney. Stacey kept us updated with messages and photos of Sydney throughout her stay. Sydney was very happy at the end of the stay. We'd definitely recommend Stacey to anyone looking for a sitter and will be using her again in the future.”

“We had great experience with Jena and Nick. Dexter received lots of love, personal attention, playtime, daily walks. Their pet Sebastian was a very nice dog and became great buddy of Dexter in a short time. They have a very nice and clean fenced backyard too. Dexter really enjoyed his time with Jena, Nick and Sebastian… We really appreciate their effort in making sure Dexter felt it at home…Thank you Jane, Nick and Sebastian for being so lovely to Dexter.”

“Deanna was super professsional and great! And was very understanding with a timing mistake I made. Vanilla had a great time and came back tired and clean.”

“Mary and family were the best. She treated Sullivan as one of her own, sent pictures, and was super responsive with messages. She went above and beyond to make Sullivan feel at home by allowing him to "rest" on furniture, taking him for several walks a day, and even taking him to a baseball game. I just hope she will have him back :).”

“I’m so glad to have found Courtney. She has been absolutely wonderful with my 2 dogs and they are always happy to see her. She takes such good care of them and keeps me posted with pictures and information on what they are up to. I’m very happy and know they are in good hands with Courtney. I can go away and not worry cause I know she is there with them. Thank you Courtney!”

“Our dog Banana had an amazing time with Damara! We got photos and updates daily and we felt very comfortable leaving her in Damara’s care for an extended time. We would 10/10 recommend!”

Tammy L.

“Victoria is absolutely awesome! She suggested a meet and greet before our stay given my dog hasn’t met cats before. She was so clearly knowledgeable from the start; meeting us outside with one of her dogs and gradually introducing our dog to her pets. Our pup can play rough and be a bit wild since he’s only a year old but she seemed totally confident in managing all the dogs’ behavior. Her home is super pet friendly (pets allowed on furniture, fenced yard) and she knows a ton about watching dogs. She noted she would feed dogs separately to limit resource guarding and had a brilliant method of having me leave while my dog was outside when I dropped him off to reduce separation anxiety. My dog had an amazing time with Victoria! She sent regular text, photo, and video updates which we so appreciated. She allowed him to sleep in her bed with her and clearly spoiled him like one of her own. He was getting over a mild ear infection and she even gave him his last few doses of medication! We had a great experience with Victoria and will definitely use her in the future!”

“Our schedule was erratic and included my mistake in scheduling. Sima and her family were gracious hosts and worked with our schedule. I received updates on how our doggo was doing everyday. It has been a pleasure working with them, I would definitely consider them next time we are in town.”

About: I have hands-on experience caring for dogs of different ages, from young puppies to adult dogs. I administer medication to my own friendly dog twice a day, so I’m comfortable incorporating medication schedules into a dog’s daily routine. I’ve also cared for an 8-week-old puppy for an extended three weeks while the parents were international, which gave me experience with the extra attention, patience, supervision, and consistency that young puppies need. I’m happy to provide walks, playtime, companionship, and plenty of love while making sure your dog feels safe and comfortable. I can also walk dogs together when their temperaments, leash manners, and walking needs are a good match. I’ll treat your pup like one of my own! I work part-time remotely from home, which gives me plenty of flexibility to fit pet care into my daily routine. I’m available throughout the day for walks, drop-in visits, feeding, playtime, and companionship. Since I’m home most of the time, I can give your pets plenty of attention and help keep them on their normal routines. My son has a few evening activities that typically last about an hour, but otherwise, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to prioritize your pet’s needs. I love being able to provide pets with dependable, loving care and make sure they feel comfortable and happy while you’re away! Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or visiting them in their own home, I want them to feel safe, comfortable, and loved! I work part-time remotely from home, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of availability for drop-in visits to check on pets, provide fresh food and water, clean litter boxes, administer medications when needed, and offer playtime, companionship, and cuddles. In my home, I have a friendly, animal-loving dog who enjoys having company. I keep plenty of toys and treats on hand to keep pets happy and entertained, and I can provide a crate or a separate room if a pet needs their own quiet space. I also have a yard with a dog-run tether for supervised outdoor time. I understand that every pet has their own personality and routine, and I’m happy to follow your instructions to help them feel comfortable and cared for. Whether your pet needs walks, playtime, medication, or simply someone to keep them company while you’re away, I’ll treat them with the same love and attention I give my own!

“Lindsey and her family were amazing at welcoming Daisy. Daisy immediately felt at ease at their home which is something she rarely does so I know Lindsey is to be trusted. Always trust someone your dog can trust :)”

“Angela and Joseph were absolutely wonderful with Amelia and Zelda! From the very beginning, they were kind, attentive, and incredibly caring. I felt completely comfortable knowing my dogs were in such good hands.”

“Our older cat is afraid of her shadow and keeps her distance from people she doesn’t know. Audrey was patient and gentle with her. She sent me pictures and notes every day. I like that she works from home so your pet is not left alone very often. And her adorable and very friendly kitten is happy to be a playmate or can be kept separate if needed. Give Audrey a try. You won’t be disappointed.”

“Great environment and backyard with lots of play space! Melissa was very responsive and friendly. She accommodated some last minute plan changes. Will be back!”

Amy R.

“Esmirna was great, and Loof loved his stay with her. We would definitely recommend her to sit your fur baby. We will definitely be using her help again the next time we travel.”

“We had two dogs stay with Milissa for 4.5 days. This was our first time boarding them anywhere so we weren’t sure what to expect. We had an initial visit to introduce our dogs and discuss arrangements before the scheduled date. Everything was great! She sent daily photos, videos, and updates on how things were going. One of our dogs is an escape artist and she adapted to the challenges and handled it very well. Our dogs were well-cared for and seemed to have a blast with the other dogs. She has a big beautiful fenced in yard with lots of room to run and play. We had open communication through the stay and any concerns or questions were addressed quickly. Milissa made our first boarding experience smooth and easy for us and put our minds at ease.”

Shane/Johanna F.

“Sarah was an incredible host and I will be booking again! I feel incredibly grateful that my two dogs were in her care- they were happy, healthy, and safe during the visit. They had many long walks and outdoor time and Sarah was very communicative with lots of pictures and updates.”

Becky H.

“She was so friendly, fast to respond, and took great care of my 95lb mixed breed. He had an injury occur the week before his stay which resulted in needing an unexpected prescription, and Adisyn had no problem handling that last minute change. Fred came home happy and tired like he had a great time. I would not hesitate to use Adisyn again!”
