Dog Boarding Lakemont

“Jennica did an amazing job of keeping my dog Herman. He was happy and calm when I picked him up. She sent me pictures and videos of him every day and evening. I will use her again. She treated Herman like he is a part of her family. I am very happy with the care she provided.”

“Charles did an amazing job taking care of Kenji. From daily updates and photos to ensuring Kenji had walks and playtime. Kenji got along well with Knox, who is a Dalmatian as well. Kenji was happy when I returned, and it was a huge relief to know he was in such good hands. Highly recommend Charles for anyone needing a dependable and caring dog sitter!”

“Ms. Alexis was absolutely amazing watching Biscuit! She was so accommodating and helpful as we had a sudden funeral to attend. Biscuit was extremely well taken care of and if you need someone who will truly love and take care of your pet, I 100% recommend using Ms. Alexis”

About: Hi! I’m a psychology major at Augusta University and currently work as an RBT supporting autistic children, which has made me patient, attentive, and very comfortable building trust through positive reinforcement. I’ve loved dogs my entire life, especially after owning and training my German Shepherd for 8 years, and I now have a puppy of my own who keeps me enjoying daily walks, park time, and training every day. (For boarding, she would stay with my family so your pet would have my full attention and a calm space.) I especially like working on basic positive reinforcement with treats or a clicker when wanted. I love petting and getting to know every dog I see, so any chance to spend time with dogs is something I genuinely enjoy. I have open availability! Sometimes I may have an appointment or time commitment, but generally I am free throughout the week. I don’t have any scheduling or preference issues with overnight, extended, or evening hours either. I live in a townhome with a fenced patio. The patio has dirt/grass for going potty, a concrete center, and a backdoor that opens to a walking path. I have two floors with the bottom floor being hardwood (accident friendly!). For crate-preferred pets I have a 48in kennel (deep cleaned before and after use), or if crate-averse there is a guest bedroom that would be situated. I bring my own doggy bags and leash, but can use whatever is preferred. If desired I also have Buddy Trainers mini training treats that can be used for positively reinforcing your pet. My default approach is to focus primarily on your pet’s comfort rather than training, with the option of passive training being added into that approach. If boarding, I could take your pet on walks around the very dog-pro community where there are consistently opportunities to socialize, explore, and play in the paths available. Also with boarding my puppy would not share the space and would be at my family’s throughout your pet’s stay. Regardless of whether your pet is boarding at my home or if sitting at your’s, I have no problem deep (and properly) cleaning any accidents that come up. My approach with all pets, especially dogs, is positive reinforcement through doing things they enjoy. I try to set your pet up for success by matching their energy and minimizing any reason to feel anxious, sized up, or uncomfortable in general.

“Always a great experience with Poria! I know my little puppy girl loves being there and gets all the care and attention. This is my go to rover and definitely recommend to any one with little dogs to take them to her.”

“Courtney was great with our dog Zoey! She sent us updates and photos, cleaned out her ears and eye gunk for her, and it sounded like Zoey had a nice relaxing vacation. Zoey got along well with Courtney’s other dog too!”

Sophie H.

“Valerie is absolutely the BEST. We sleep soundly knowing our Lex is with her. He absolutely adores her. I cannot recommend her enough to other dog owners. We always feel relieved when we are able to book her for when we are out of town. 10/10 recommend Valerie!!”

Mikenzie S.

“My dog absolutely loved staying with her! She’s great at communicating and sending me updates of my baby, I felt safe with leaving my dog with her, and she took great care of him. Will definitely be coming back!”

Maria M.

“Lulu got to have another amazing boarding experience with Cassie! I got so many pictures of their time together and had so much peace of mind while she was away. Cassie is seriously one of the best here. I hope I can get Cassie as a sitter every time!”

Tamecia P.

“Extremely knowledgeable in her medical care for pets. She takes creat care to ensure your pet stays healthy, and has an emergency plan in place. She even gave me recommendations on what I can do to keep my babies healthy. Would definitely recommend for pets needing more detailed attention.”

“Becca was a wonderful sitter!! My dogs were very happy with her. I was late to drop them off but she accommodated me. I’ll definitively call her in the future.”

“Amazing boarding experience . My lab loves Rachel and her family. She has two friendly chocolate labs so my dog gets a lot of daily activity and play .”

“Katie is awesome! Brooke totally enjoyed her stay. I received regular updates on how she was doing, which is a plus! Her first time away from us made me pretty uneasy, but Katie assured she'd be just fine. And with this being a last minute decision, she was able to accommodate our needs! Thanks so much!”

Monique D.

“Payton took great care of our baby while we were out of town. She was very communicative and sent us lots of updates with pictures. We felt at ease that our pup was being cared for well.”
