Dog Boarding in Lansdale

Serving Abington, Roslyn, Willow Grove and beyond !!! We are a great alternative to staying in a kennel. We are home most of the day except for an errand every now and then. We live in a ranch style home on 1/3 of an acre with part in which there is a 60' by 130' lot with a 5' high chain link fence for security.

We have many repeat clients. Some come as far as Philadelphia, Cherry Hill, Ardmore ,Bryn Mawr, Phoenixville, West Chester and Center City areas ! We are a very short distance from PA Turnpike exit to Willow Grove !

Check out our facebook page HAPPY HUSKY HAVEN for more pictures !!

We have 40 plus years experience with the Northern Breeds (Siberian Huskies, American Eskimos and Alaskan Malamutes). We will watch most kinds of dogs as long as there are no "alphas, divas or aggressive" issues. All dogs need to be HOUSEBROKEN (no "PEE PADS") and SPAYED OR NEUTERED. We accept "continent" Seniors. All dogs must be able to navigate 3 deck steps. Please no "diggers" or "chewers" ! We don't normally take pups/dogs under 2 years old but we will access at the meet and greet. We also do not take dogs under 25 pounds. ALL SHOTS MUST BE CURRENT. I WILL NEED COPY OF THIS. BORDETELLA SHOT IS REQUIRED DUE TO MULTIPLE DOGS HERE. DOG MUST BE VERY SOCIAL AND USED TO STAYING IN HOMES OTHER THAN THEIR OWN.

Your dog will not be crated unless it is part of their training with your crate or ours. Your dog can sleep anywhere they want, including our bed. We want your pet to feel like they are at home. We follow your food schedule and administer medication and supplements in food or "pill pockets." We feed in stainless steel bowls. Bowls are washed after every meal. We cannot "FREE FEED" (leave food down all day) because of the other dogs that stay here.

With people vacationing for a week and some for a long weekends, there will be an overlap of dogs at times. There might be 3 dogs on any given week and up to 6 or 7 during weekends with constant supervision. We are flexible with drop off and pick up times. (NO EARLIER THAN 9 AM DROP OFFS OR LATER THAN 9 PM PICK UPS) After all this is a private home !

This is a one story rancher with no steps inside. There are a few deck steps for entrance to the house and deck steps that lead to the back yard should your dog have issues with getting up and down steps or is a Senior dog. Your dog will enjoy our huge yard for running and playing. In the evenings we spend time out back on the deck with the "fur-kids." This is a NON-SMOKING house with CENTRAL AIR. Our yard is treated for fleas and ticks and our dog is FLEA FREE!!! In the winter months, your dog will relax in the evening in the living room with us while being warmed by the wood burning stove. In the summer months we hang out back on the deck enjoying the fresh air.

So, bring your dog here and she/he will have fun and be well taken care of ! Your dog becomes our dog for the time they are here and will get hugs and love while you are away!!!

I have worked with animals since I was 13. I graduated College with an animal conservation snd animal management degree a business management degree and also a business administration degree. I love working with animals, I don't see myself doing anything else but helping people and working with their furry family members. I talk to people as if I always knew them, and take an interest in their families as well as their pets. I do not stray away from any training or anything the owner does not approve of while their pet is in my care. They will get a lot of exercise and we love to keep them busy through their stay. There is someone at my house 24/7 so your furry family member will not be home alone ever.

Why I love Pet sitting

I have always loved animals for as long as I can remember. When I was younger, I knew my career was going to be with animals. I always had a passion working with and helping animals as much as I could. I love meeting and pet sitting all different types of breeds of dogs and cats.

My experience administering medication

Yes, I am comfortable administering medication and giving insulin shots if needed. I do well at pilling animals :-)My experience at a vet hospital helps me as well.

I volunteer at a wildlife rehabilitation center caring for sick animals, and release them back into the wild. I started my own Pet sitting company EnVi for Animals back in 2014. This stands for end violence for animals, to help spread awareness and bring animals and people closer together. My company won best in Montgomery county for 2017, 2018 and 2nd place in 2016. I also work at a veterinarian hospital and I am going back to school online for a certified vet technician certificate. I would rather do nothing else than to ensure that your pet is safe and happy while you are away :-). Please like our page facebook/Enviforanimals to receive a booking code for your first stay!

Pets will have free roam in my home unless otherwise instructed by their owners. The owners will receive picture updates and text message updates through out the stay, to ensure you know your pet is well taken care of while you are away. I treat everyone's pets as if they were my own. I do not see a pet being treated any other way but as a member of the family. It is nice to know your pet well be cared for while you are away. You have enough to worry about!

I can not wait to meet your furry family member! We give deals with families with more than one pet :] we love what we do !

**DISCLAIMER: I am not responsible for any separation anxiety your dog may feel after leaving here due to the incredibly amazing experience they will have **

**Family Home: We are an animal loving family in a large single house with an even bigger fenced in yard.

**More than 1 dog? I always give a better rate.

• Saftey and Happiness for your furry family are my top priorities.

*Dogs who Are Boarding or Are Staying for Day Care Must Be Dog Friendly*

Thank you for your interest! We are glad you took the time to check us out to care for your furry friend!

Here is a little bit of information about us:

- There is always someone home! Both of us work from home so besides the occasional family dinner out or trip to the store, we are home.

- We have loads of experience with all kinds of dogs! For the last 7+ years, we have been a foster home for a local rescue. We have cared for many different kinds and sizes of dogs. We have cared for dogs with all kinds of issues and have never had any problems!

- We have a large, fully fenced in, wooded, park like yard for your pup to explore! But don’t worry, we never leave a dog unattended in the yard. We spend a lot of time out there, so your pet will as well.

- We don’t crate. Unless a pet parent requests us to, we pretty much let your pup roam free or keep them in one or 2 rooms. Typically, they would be where we are. The only exception to this is aggression, which almost never happens but we do have the plan in place just in case.

- We will keep you updated with pics and texts! We know the occasional check in is important!

- Most importantly, we will care for your pup as if they were our own. We know the feeling of being on a trip and thinking or worrying about your dog. He/she will be on their own vacation here, having a blast in the yard or curling up to watch some TV. Either way, he/she will be taken care of as well as you do.

If you would like, we can set up a meet and greet. These are not necessary but some pet parents prefer to do it. We are available most evenings, Saturdays and Sundays. Or if you feel comfortable with us watching your pup, you can book with us right away.

If you decide to book with us, all we ask for is your pups food, an idea on their feeding and sleeping schedules and a phone number to reach you with pics and updates! You are more than welcome to bring some treats, toys and/or bed.

Also just so you know…… We do watch more than one dog at a time. If you have a pup that is not friendly or you don’t want them to be with the other dogs, we can accommodate that as well. Typically we keep the dogs in their own areas and let them play with one another one or two at a time and a person is with them. We won’t ever socialize your pup with someone else’s unless we were with them. In the off event that we do need to leave the house as a group and it would be just the dogs at home, we would close doors and keep them in a room alone, with a box fan, TV, water and a bed. If this were to happen, it would be not more than one or two hours for a school event or dinner kind of thing.

Also, we have kids. Our kids have a lot of experience with the dogs as well. Kevin, who is 17 and is very gentle, kind and ADORES all dogs. In fact, Kevin works at a local vet and takes care of the boarded and daycare pups there. He also assists the vets with the pups too.m. Alyssa, who is 12, tends to want any pup to snuggle up with her on the bean bag chair in her room. If you have a pup who is not good with kids, that’s OK! We have had many rescue dogs who were just the same. These pups don't get the run of the house but they do get a whole room!

If you have any special instructions for the care, any specific questions or need to know anything further, reach out here via rover and I will answer right away! I typically try to respond with in the first 15 minutes after I receive your request.

Thank you again for your interest! We hope you decide to book with us!

We are an energetic family of six, who completely adore dogs. We have a very flexible schedule and are usually home most of the day. This is because we home school our kids thus there are always plenty of helping hands to give love and attention to your dogs. My daughter, who is 15, had always wanted a dog ever since she was little. Two years ago we finally got one, and we were hooked. :) All my children love animals, especially dogs.

We would feel incredibly privileged if you would consider letting us watch your precious pet.

About our pets:

The only pet we have is a dog, named Shadow. She is a Golden Retriever/Border Collier mix and is very good with other dogs.

We have previously watched friends dogs, and my husband has grown up with dogs his whole life.

About our Yard:

Our whole property is 1/2 an acre, and our backyard has a fence. The kids have a swing set, treehouse, and a trampoline. (which we take down in the winter) Right next to our house is a path, which is approximately a mile long encircling a large field. This is usually where we walk the dogs.

Large and small breeds are welcome here! Let your four legged loved ones have a vacation of their own in our single family home with a large fenced in yard. We can administer oral medications for special needs guests. We are down the street from a local park for daily walks. Sadly, we lost our beloved 14 year old dog and have since been adopted by a cat.

Rates are for a 24 hour period, including one night. Drop offs and pick ups are accepted between the hours of 9am and 9pm. Pickups after 9 p.m. are too late for this household. If you find you must pick up after 9 p.m., you will be charged an additional nights fee. If you need to drop off earlier than 9am, please book your pet's stay for the night before. It will make your morning travel rush easier and less anxious for your pet. Additionally, please note that there are working adults in this household with varying schedules. There will be times during the weekday when your pet is unsupervised.

Hi, I would love to meet you and your dog and assure you both would be very happy here in my home. I treat my guests as if they were my own, they get lots of attention and love. Walks are a must in my house, even if it's just around the block. A few points:

1. I have a full time job outside the home, so if you want someone with your fur baby 24/7, I'm not that person.

2. I have 2 cats in my house, 1 thinks he is a dog and greets everyone when they come thru the door. So, if your dog doesn't like cats, please don't contact me.

3. All male dogs must be neutered as Kylo, my husky, will not tolerate one that isn't. He was just neutered himself in June 2019, after I rescued him and I don't know his story or how old he is.

4. I will need a copy of your pups Rabies Certificate and dog license number as I recently found out that I needed a Kennel License and now have one. I am licensed to board 10 dogs but do try to keep it to fewer during the week. Weekends could be an exception as I have a very difficult time saying no to my regulars.

I live in a development with plenty of sidewalks and a park down at the end of the street. Lots of smells for your pup to enjoy. I look forward to hearing from you, if you think I would be a good fit for your fur baby. Thank you!!

* Please note: The nightly rate is for an approximate 24 hour stay. I can give a couple hours leeway, but if you are dropping in the morning the first day and picking up in the late afternoon or evening on the last day I would ask that you pay my day care rate for that day.*

We are a family of 7 who absolutely love animals. I am a stay at home mom and even with needing to run errands someone is almost always home and you can be assured your dog will get lots of love . Because we home school there are always many hands around to give plenty of attention to our doggie visitors. We have one Yorkshire Terrier Rosie, who is 3 years old. She does bark when people come to the door, but other than that she loves to nap most of the day. We have raised 6 litters of puppies and I grew up in a home that raised Yorkie puppies, so I am very familiar with the breed. However, we love and have experience with all sizes and breeds of dogs. Our children raise rabbits (outside) and chickens and we also have a couple of horses. We have raised goats and participate in the 4-H program with alpacas, so we are very comfortable with various kinds of animals and animal care. If your dog likes to chase chickens, rabbits or horses we may not be the best fit for you. Most dogs seem to be fine with them however.You dog will receive lots of exercise, love and attention at our home. Many of our clients say their dogs come home very tired. While we do not have a fenced yard, we do have a very large yard and will leash walk. We like to go on walks on the Perkiomen trail, a mile from our house, and we would love to take your dog along if that is something they would enjoy. We would feel privileged for you to consider us to watch your beloved pet.

Why I love dog sitting:

We got our first dog when I was 12 years old. She was a Yorkie and I loved her to pieces. We have only ever owned Yorkies, but we love all dogs and have had experience with many different breeds.

Meet my pets:

We have 2 barn cats, chickens, rabbits and horses outside.

About my yard:

Our yard is not fenced in, but we have a lot of space. Our property is 5 acres in all, but our immediate yard is about an acre of grass. The kids have a swing set and trampoline out back and we do have chickens in a fenced in area. We have 3 rabbits in a pen outside and there are also 2 horses in the far back field. There are two barn cats that roam around the property.

As a pet owner myself, there is nothing more stressful then having to find overnight pet care for your family dog. Ultimately, you want your pet to be in a safe, happy and loving environment. When you're away on business or pleasure, you don't want to worry about your pet and their well being. Sit back and be reassured, that I will take great care of your family member. Keep in mind, I also offer daily dog care, in my home. Puppy boo boo's need dressing or do you have a special request, for a puppy shampoo. MY PLEASURE!

About this sitter:

I am a 50 year old mother of an 11 year old boy and a stepmom to two daughters, who are 8 and 11 years old. We are all huge animal lovers! I have had many types of animals over the years and currently have two short haired guinea pigs. I have dog sat for many different types of dogs, over my lifetime. I have cared for Beagles, Irish Setters, Airedales, Shistsu's, a Pitbull and the list goes on. I have a very large home and a large fenced in backyard, which is perfect for your big or small pup.

My neighborhood is very dog friendly and is just a few short blocks from Valley Green and Carpenters Woods. If I sound like a great fit for your family please contact me.

Why I love dog sitting

I was about 10 years old when we got Patches, the beagle. He was sweet, loving and a bit mischievous and I've been in love ever since. I've had Irish Setters and lap dogs ,such as, Shih tzu's. So I am very comfortable with both small and larger breeds. Currently, the only dog in house belongs to my housemate. Sprite is a rescue who gets along with most dogs but is afraid of people.

My stays are a combination of daily doggy daycare along with short and extended stays. I sit large and small breeds. I take dog safety very seriously, so if your dog shows any signs of aggression or extreme separation anxiety, I'm probably not the right fit, for your dog.

Meet my pets

We also have 2 guinea pigs. They are safely secured, in my sons room.

About my yard

I live in a large home with a fenced in backyard. My yard is secure and there is plenty of room for your puppy to play. The yard is a combination of sun and shade and I always have fresh water available. On really hot days, I take a little time for water play and I like to put ice cubes in their water.

My experience administering medication

I am very comfortable giving pets there medication or caring for any cuts or other boo boo's.
