Bruces Legacy Boarding LLC
((((((COMPLETELY BOOKED UNTIL JULY 1ST)))))) Howdy! My name is Ariel, and I’ve had dogs my whole life! (At least 3) I recently turned my passion for canines into a full-time business. I have 4 dogs of my own, whom I consider my furry kids, so I understand how important it is to find reliable, loving care for your pets. That’s why I send regular updates through text or the Rover app with pictures added. I offer adult dog boarding and puppy, doggy daycare, bathing (add-on for $10, including brushing), and dog grooming at my home here in Texas City. ***Boardings of 2 night's or more get a free dog wash automatically :) I take my job seriously and follow all instructions carefully to keep your pet comfortable and happy. I am happy to care and stick to your pet’s usual routine, including crate time if needed just let me know. I like to do slow intros so I may not let my dogs meet yours during the meet and greet. I foster dogs and they may be nervous when you first arrive. I've found its better when the pet parents aren't near and also since it is a new place they may be nervous. If they're nervous I'll wait until 2nd day to do intros! ***No forcing here!!! If you're wondering about the name it is in honor of our great dane we lost last fall. We loved him so much we thought it only made sense to honor him in this way! ~~~> I’m always expanding my canine education and currently studying dog grooming as well. It is a 3 month program im starting april/may 2026. I love helping out in the community and look forward to caring for your furry family members! Feel free to message me with any more questions. Best, Ariel :)

Ratings and reviews
Ariel was amazing, she took such great care of my pups and made my vacation stress free. Plus sent lots of great pics!


Ariel was amazing! She sent photos every day, gave me regular updates and really made us feel comfortable. We highly recommend her! It’s such a relief to find someone who understands and loves dogs, even those who can sometimes take a day or two to adjust. E will definitely use her again!

First time using Rover, it was easy to use and led us to the most amazing sitter. Our pup loves to play and share time with others but has never had a over night stay before. We were all a little nervous but Ariel gave us such peace of mind and went to extra mile to keep our Star healthy and happy. Ariel is incredible.

We are truly blessed to have found her. She took extremely good care of our little April. She even bathed her without charging. She is truly doing this out of love of her heart. Honestly best experience I have had on Rover. Many pictures everyday. Ariel also gave her individualized care to manage her extreme separation anxiety. We will continue to work with her anytime we leave town!

First time using Rover and last minute too. She was quick to respond! She updated me often, my dog had a good time!

I was super nervous about finding a new sitter after our old sitter of 5 years moved away, but Ariel made the whole experience so easy. She was so sweet with my pups, communicated really well, and sent lots of pictures and updates throughout their stay. Every photo had them smiling and looking so happy. She completely eased my nerves for our first stay, and I already booked their next trip with her. Honestly, I don’t think they even wanted to leave her house when I picked them up 😂 Highly recommend!

Schedule
I work online at home so will be able to stay engaged with your dog while I am with them. I usually don't do any online work on weekends unless it is urgent so will be fully engaged those days. When I work online it's in my home office at my house. I usually keep the boarded dogs and my main dog Blaze in there while I'm working. ***My personal dogs are crate trained due to various reasons and fed in their cages separately. (This is how they were trained)
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I will make sure they are supervised in my yard at all times. If you require them to be on a leash outside I will make sure they are leashed before going out as well.
Pets
A typical day
I like bringing training treats to make the walk more rewarding for them. I will run with them if they like that and let them know when they're doing an amazing job. I studied reward based behavior so I always try to make them feel comfortable with me.
