🐾 Home Away From Home Dog Boarding

Looking for a safe, loving alternative to a kennel? We provide in-home boarding for one guest dog at a time in our family home. Your dog will enjoy personalized attention, plenty of outdoor time, and companionship from our friendly Golden Retriever, Birdie. What we offer: ✔️ Large fenced yard with doggie door access ✔️ 1–2 daily walks ✔️ Playtime with Birdie ✔️ Comfortable indoor accommodations ✔️ Daily photo and text updates ✔️ Family environment with lots of attention ✔️ No crowded boarding facility Important: We have three children and a dog, so we only accept family-friendly dogs that are comfortable around children and other dogs. For everyone’s safety, dogs must be non-aggressive, well-socialized, and up to date on vaccinations. Because we host only one guest dog (or one family of dogs) at a time, your pet receives a calm, personalized experience and becomes part of our family’s daily routine. Rate: $60 per night 🐶 A safe, fun home where your dog is treated like family. 🐶

Boarding • Aug 01, 2026

Colleen and her family did a fantastic job sitting for our pup (8mo doodle). We met her in advance so our dogs could test it out. This was a new experience for both of us so it was great that they were willing to meet in advance. The home and backyard provide a very dog friendly space. Family is very friendly and great with dogs. I received daily photos and little updates on how things were going.

Dylan has grown up caring for our pets, including our dog Birdie and two cats. He is very responsible, follows routines well, and makes sure all of their needs are met—feeding, walks, playtime, and clean-up. He’s patient, attentive, and genuinely enjoys spending time with animals. I trust him completely to care for pets safely and responsibly, and I know he will treat any pet like his

Safety, trust & environment

I always prioritize safety and follow all instructions closely to make sure pets are well cared for. I’m attentive, responsible, and make sure pets are secure during walks and visits. I respect clients’ homes and keep everything clean and organized. I’ll also communicate updates so owners feel comfortable and confident while they’re away.
