Dog Boarding In Kirkside

“Kristy was amazing! She gave constant updates and sent bunches of photos! She was also amazing in calming my fears of leaving Zig for a long weekend. Zig obviously had a great time and came home an excited, but exhausted, pup.”

“Cassie and Ben and their kids are the best! I know Berkley is loved and well cared for while I'm away, and I can't say enough good things about them!!!”

Laurie F.

“Olga is such a kind person and it is very clear how nice she loves and cares for dogs. I was anxious about leaving my pup because it was our first time apart. I got so many updates, my mind was put to ease right away! Highly recommend. I am absolutely going to use Olga in the future!”

“Billie was very informative, loving & caring when my Raelyn was under the weather. She kept me posted & sent pictures. Any questions I had she responded back immediately. She took excellent care of Raelyn. I recommend her highly. Very capable & kind. I will be using her services again. I trust her completely.”

Renee M.

“Derrika and her family are so sweet and amazing. Kiki might like them more than me! She has the best time when she says with Derrika, cannot reccomend more! Derrika will send all the cute pictures and you won't worry in the slightest. Book her immediately!”

Racelynn T.

“They did an amazing job with Nymeria. She was slow to warm up at first, but they kept me updated and reassured me that she was starting to come out of her shell and get comfortable. The communication they provided was very much appreciated and made me feel so much more comfortable knowing she was in a safe and loving environment. She is back home and sleeping soundly now, and I know she had a great time and received plenty of care and attention. It was such a relief knowing she was in good hands and not sitting in a cold kennel without much human interaction. I truly appreciated the care, patience, and communication throughout her stay. I will absolutely be using their services again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and compassionate to care for their pets.”

Michelle P.

“Damonte was fantastic. Sent photos and videos of our little Ace. It’s comforting to know someone can take care of your furry friend like you would. Definitely recommend.”

steve t.

“A wonderful loving environment, where I could leave my furry friend and know she was being well taken care of. I highly recommend Karly and her family.. our teenage children adored my dog and even allowed her to sleep with them, just like she does at home.”

Kristi M.

“Chantelle is pleasant, professional, accommodating, and easy to work with. The dogs came back happy and well. I will be a repeat customer as needed.”

Scott W.

“From the moment I met Brittney and Max I felt very comfortable having them watch Seamus. Their dog and kids were perfect companions for him and guaranteed he’d get plenty of love and affection. I also received plenty of pictures from Brittney which put me at ease and was a nice touch when I was missing him. He got plenty of time outdoors, cuddles, and play time. I will definitely be using this family in the future.”

Emily L.

“Lauren was great with everything from special accommodations for our fur babies to meeting our needs as the pet owners. She kept us updated hourly/daily on how our puppies were doing and also sent pictures showing how much fun they were having. We highly recommend Lauren to anybody that is looking for a babysitter for their fur babies. While attending a graduation in Kansas seeing that our hotel is not pet friendly , we found her on Rover and that was the best decision we ever made. Thanks again so much Lauren and we appreciate you !”

Henrietta P.

“Five stars are not enough to convey how much we love Abby! Our dogs love her and she is an amazing dog carer. Highly recommend and will use again and again!”

Kristy S.

“Chloe and Collin were recommended to me, and I’m very grateful for their hospitality. They extended Tucker’s stay for us due to an unforeseen circumstance, which we appreciate immensely.”

Kay A.

“This was our first time using Rover.com and Bridget stood out to us right away. She was very flexible with scheduling and very understanding when we had to change some times around. She watched Kaycee for a long weekend and Kaycee was immediately comfortable. She provided daily pictures so we continued to have peace of mind. During the meet and greet, she was prepared with questions regarding health, habits, and training; she eased my mind by answering all my questions regarding potty times, sleep arrangements, payments, and pick up/drop off times as well. We felt she was affordable and provided far more attention to our puppy than any dog boarding place would have. We will definitely be using Bridget again for a sitter. Kaycee loved her!”

Brett B.

“Second time using this dog sitter. This time for an extended stay, over one week. Will continue to use Erin. Seems my dog is very comfortable staying there.”

Jim J.

“Sylveena was remarkable! Communication was daily, quick to provide feedback and answer questions. Look forward to having her watch our dogs whenever we have to travel. 10/10!”

About: After years of specialized transport with Mother Nature's Express, I am bringing that same USDA-certified level of safety and care to Mother Nature’s Boarding—a dedicated sanctuary for your furbabies. Professional Pedigree & Expert Care: ​I am not just a pet lover; I am a career animal professional with a decade of high-stakes experience. My background as a retired USDA-certified animal transporter means I have spent years safely navigating the logistics of animal behavior and safety across the country. I’ve handled animals of all temperaments and sizes, ensuring their health and security while traveling state-to-state and staying in pet-friendly luxury environments. ​Your furbaby's safety is my absolute priority. I am Red Cross Animal CPR certified, and my home is run with the precision and cleanliness of a professional facility, but with the heart of a dedicated stay-at-home parent. ​The Boutique Environment: ​Because I am home 24/7, your dog receives constant companionship and expert monitoring. My specialized setup includes: ​A dedicated "Guest Suite" located upstairs with me, completely separate from my personal pets to ensure a zero-stress transition. ​Safety-First Rotations: Utilizing my professional handling skills to manage pack dynamics, ensuring every guest feels like the "only" dog in the room. ​Expert Medical Oversight: Comfortable and experienced in administering medications and managing strict health protocols. A Lifetime of Devotion: ​My life has been defined by the bond between humans and animals. While I have over 12 years of adult experience managing my own multi-pet household—including dogs and cats—my journey actually began 25 years ago when I welcomed my first cat at age four, followed by a trio of small-breed dogs just two years later. I grew up learning the unique nuances of small-breed personalities, which is why I now specialize in providing a "big-dog-free" sanctuary for your little ones. As a career animal professional, pet care isn't just a part of my routine—it's the center of it. My schedule is designed to provide 24/7 supervision and companionship for my guest dogs. Because I am home full-time, I can maintain strict, consistent schedules for feeding, potty breaks, and medications that mimic your furbaby's home environment perfectly. ​My week is built around 'Restful Rotations.' While my mornings and evenings are for structured care, the daytime is filled with enrichment and one-on-one attention in our dedicated upstairs boutique area. This setup allows me to give your pet the high-touch care they deserve without the chaos of a traditional kennel. I care for every guest with the same expert precision I used as a USDA-certified animal transporter. My home's layout has been designed for maximum safety: all guest dogs enjoy the entire main/upstairs floor as their private 'boutique' sanctuary, completely separate from my personal pets who reside in their own personal basement suite while guests are here. ​Safety is my absolute priority. I utilize: ​Rotation-Based Exercise: I rotate my own dogs before guests enter the fully fenced backyard, ensuring a stress-free environment. ​The Double-Leash Rule: For front-yard strolls, I strictly follow the USDA safety standard of two points of contact (harness and collar) to ensure your pet is 100% secure at all times. ​Crated Security: To prevent nighttime scuffles and ensure a restful sleep, all guests sleep in their own individual, cozy crates with fresh water and orthopedic bedding. (The same protocol follows for feeding times to ensure absolute safety while eating) ​Medical Peace of Mind: Being certified in Animal CPR, I am highly experienced in monitoring health and administering specialized care.
