Dog Boarding Koloa

“Koda continues to love his vacations at Courtney’s. It makes it easier to leave him knowing that he’s more excited to go see her then stay with us!”

“Tito had a great time with Jacy and the other dogs she was taking care of. I had no worries leaving him there and he will be back soon. Thank you!!”

About: Born on Kauai, HI, All my life i've cherished animals, and my love for them grows everyday. I currently have 4 dogs, 2 cats, and a bird, and have experience in dog grooming and training. I've raised and cared for puppies, kittens, senior pets, pets with special needs, and other four legged friends alike! I live by carrying gentleness in my hands and patience in my heart. I currently work from home and care for my 7 pets every single day, from playful young pets to gentle seniors. Each one has their own personality, routine, and little quirks, and I've learned to meet them all where they are. I hope to spread that same love and care to as many pets as I can. I believe every animal deserves a warm, patient, and understanding home. I'm available all days of the week, so I can be flexible whenever your pet needs me! Whether that's a quick visit, a long stay, or just someone to sit with them and give them attention. I care for each pet based on their individual needs: their age, personality, and comfort level. I make sure every pet has a safe space to settle into, and do my best to keep routines consistent so they feel at ease. I also have a big fenced backyard where they can run around and play safely. For pets who need extra care, like my own special-needs cat, I'm patient and attentive to their specific requirements. I also keep dogs and cats in separate areas of the house when needed, so every pet feels comfortable and stress-free. Above all, I treat every pet like family, with the same love and patience I give my own.

“We are so Thankful we found Eric and his Family to board our dogs. We have two high energy working breed dogs. Eric’s expertise with dogs set us at ease to travel knowing our fur family were being cared for by a knowledgeable and capable family! We will definitely use Eric again when we ever travel off island.”

About: What really sets me apart from other dog sitters is my personalized approach to pet care, driven by a deep understanding of each dog's unique needs and personality. I prioritize creating a nurturing and stimulating environment, tailored specifically to your dog's preferences and routines. With a background in canine behavior and training, I not only ensure your dog’s physical well-being but also engage them mentally and emotionally, fostering a sense of security and happiness. My commitment to open communication means you’ll receive regular updates and photos, so you can rest assured your furry friend is receiving the highest level of care while you're away. I work part time, walking/watching dogs and cats is how I would like to spend the other half of my week. Monday - Sunday I’m available. I focus on maintaining your pet's routine as closely as possible, ensuring they feel secure and comfortable. I provide consistent feeding, exercise, and playtime, as well as any necessary grooming or medication according to your instructions. I also respect your home environment, keeping it clean and tidy.

About: Our family travels for part of each year, which makes having a dog of our own impractical right now. But we absolutely adore animals. Our daughter, Sequoia, spent part of her childhood on a working dairy farm. She’s an enthusiastic little skipping encyclopedia of animal facts, conservation efforts, and animal behavior. One of the highlights of her day is meeting neighborhood dogs on our walks, learning their names, and offering a treat and a little affection. We are posting here for the extraordinary pleasure of having doggies in our lives. We accept dogs from just one household at a time because we want the experience to be thoughtful, slowed down and personal. Before booking, you’re welcome to visit our home for a complimentary visit. Once you’ve booked, we’d like to come meet your dog in their usual home. We’d like to learn their routines, favorite games, funny habits, and where they are most comfortable. Sequoia’s involvement is always supervised by an adult, and we only welcome dogs that are genuinely comfortable around children. The adults handle all care and responsibility, with plenty of loving support around the household. We’d love to send you photos, little videos of your dog’s adventures, and even arrange one-way FaceTime hellos, or two way calls if your dog enjoys that! And if we’re lucky enough to capture those ears flying in slow motion on a romp, you’ll absolutely be getting that video. Our hope is simple: You’ll have a wonderful trip, your dog will have a wonderful stay, and we’ll all make new friends. After your return our daughter would be delighted to see her furry friends again, whether or not there’s another booking on the calendar, so let’s definitely stay in touch and make some play dates! I am home essentially all day, so visiting dogs can enjoy companionship rather than spending their vacation waiting for someone to return home. Whether you have an enthusiastic adventurer who could happily walk for miles or a professional napper who considers a leisurely sniff around the garden a very successful morning, I’ll learn your dog’s normal routine. I’m happy to include runs for dogs if they can handle! Between outings, there’s time for play, exploring our fenced outdoor space, relaxing indoors, getting attention, and simply enjoying the rhythm of home. With your permission, I’d also love to offer a daily home-cooked, real-meat treat. I’ll send updates throughout the stay, and we’re happy to arrange FaceTime calls if your pup enjoys hearing from you. I know how much trust it takes to leave your love bug with someone new. That’s why we welcome you to visit my home before making a booking. Come, see where your dog would spend their days, explore the environment, and ask every question you have. I’d much rather take the time to make sure everyone feels comfortable than rush into a reservation. My home has a dog-safe outdoor area, and I am home essentially all day. I accept dogs from only one household at a time so they won’t be unexpectedly sharing its stay with unfamiliar boarding dogs. Because I have a young daughter, every visiting dog must be comfortable around children. She is wonderfully enthusiastic about animals. Interactions are supervised, and dogs are always allowed the space and quiet they need. Before a stay, we’ll discuss your dog’s feeding instructions, health considerations, medications, temperament, behavioral triggers, walking preferences, and emergency contacts. You can expect genuine updates—not simply proof that your dog is still here, but glimpses of how they’re actually doing. Eating well? Settling comfortably? Discovering a favorite spot? Enjoying a particularly funny moment? Your doggie will only be as far away as the phone in your pocket.
