Top rated Lakewood dog boarders
“Tori is truly phenomenal! From the moment we dropped off our pup, Dixie, we knew she was in the best hands. Not only did Tori take incredible care of her, but she also made sure Dixie had an absolute blast every single day. We received daily updates and adorable photos that showed just how happy and comfortable Dixie was—tail wagging, big smiles, and all! Tori clearly goes above and beyond, creating a fun, safe, and loving environment that feels like a second home. Because of the amazing experience Dixie had, we’ll definitely be returning for both doggy boarding and daycare. If you’re looking for someone trustworthy, consistent, and genuinely passionate about dogs, I can’t recommend Tori enough. She’s a gem!”
“Ashmira was so so great! I felt so comfortable with our Simba staying with her. She was so on top of sending pictures which I love. Simba got all the walks in the world and she gave our little guy a little vacation from home. 10/10 recommend and will be using her again!”
“Diane and Chris were absolutely amazing with our little shy guy. This was our first time using Rover and they made the process so smooth with updates of photos and videos to show us how he was doing. They were even so helpful in working with us when our flight home got delayed. We would happily recommend and will have Whiskey stay with them again in the future!”
“Daphne took amazing care of my dog Dobby! She was so thorough, and sent several updates each day. I absolutely recommend her to others! I’ll definitely be asking her (and her sweet dog Oliver) to look after Dobby again the future!”
“Kani was a great sitter for my 2 pups! I got frequent thorough updates and a ton of pictures which gave me peace of mind. They all took a ton of walks and got time outside, and were both happy and tired when I picked them up. I’ll definitely be booking with Kani again :)”
“Gunner is a very energetic dog and Greg was a huge help! Accommodated to our needs and I can tell Gunner had an amazing day, definitely recommend Greg to take care of your pets like they’re his own :)”
“Ruby has the best time when she stays with Cody, Nicole, and Sage! They truly treat her like her own. I was so happy to see her having such a great time and appreciated all the video and pic updates!”
“Abigail was amazing! I felt really comfortable leaving Moose with her for the weekend and she was super flexible with me when I had a bunch of flight cancellations. Would definitely re-book in the future!!”
“Melinda was great host for our dog Marci. This was her first time there, and Marci seemed happy and tired when we picked her up so signs of a good stay. Our flight was delayed due to weather, and Melinda graciously kept her overnight for us. We would not hesitate to use her again.”
“My dog had a wonderful stay with Erin! I could tell right away that she was comfortable with Erin and that she would take good care of her. I got lots of photos and status updates and felt like my pup was in excellent, loving hands. I will definitely have my pup stay with her again and recommend her to others!”
“Alexandra watched our older chocolate lab mix and was amazing. She came by before to meet him and brought her dog that he would be staying with. She was very communicative and sent lots of pictures. He was very happy staying with her. Would absolutely book again!”
“Chennai did a great job taking care of my 9 year old frenchie for boarding at their house. She was very responsive and sent many updates and pictures. My pup definitely was well taken care of when she was there and had a great time ☺️ would definitely rebook in the future”
“Sara is AMAZING! My little Westie is such a finicky eater, so she literally hand-fed her! She treated her like she was her own dog. I could tell when I picked Wrigley up that she had had a comfortable stay. She was so calm and not at all nervous, like she often is after being away from home. I will definitely use Sara again!”
“Our experience with Jamie has been so positive fir our dog. Jamie is very thorough in preparing dog families for a stay at her place. Our meet and greet was relaxed and we could tell that Jamie loves her visiting dogs. We felt very confident that our dog was enjoying herself after hearing Jamie’s updates and seeing pictures. We will definitely be using Jamie to care for our pup in the future!”
“Meera and Tofu loved their vacation with Amber and Chris. Tofu, who struggles with anxiety and meeting new people, felt right at home and got so much love that he didn’t even need his anxiety meds. Thank you so much Chris and Amber for loving our pups.”
“Excellent hosts! Great communication, very trustworthy, flexible - really everything you’d want when looking for pet sitting. Our pup will definitely be back!”
“Staci is wonderful at puppy sitting! Millie (chihuahua mix) enjoys it when she is there and playing with Nala. Lots of loves and treats during Millie’s time with them!”
