Your dogs home away from home🐶💕

🐾 Welcome to Lyonas Playhouse! Proudly serving 200+ Happy Families since 2017 | Safe Social Boarding | Big Yard | Experienced Dog Care Greetings! My name is Dana, and Lyonas Playhouse was created in loving memory of my childhood dog, Lyonas, whose joyful spirit inspired everything we do today. Caring for him taught me the importance of love, structure, and play in every dog’s life. At Lyonas’s Playhouse, our mission is to provide each dog with a safe, happy, and comfortable stay. From daily walks and park adventures to cozy downtime indoors, we make sure every pup feels at home. We also take pride in keeping dogs clean, well groomed, and stress free throughout their visit. Your dog will enjoy plenty of exercise at the large park around the corner, along with opportunities to socialize and play if other friendly dogs are around. You can trust that your furry friend will be cared for like family and return to you even happier than when you dropped them off! If your dog has any behavioral or medical needs, please let us know before booking so we can give them the best possible care. 😊🐶 https://gofund.me/37a82c32f

Our pup had a great stay and came home happy. Dana was easy to communicate with and was happy to have a meet and greet prior to boarding. Our pup can be hesitant with other dogs and Dana was able to facilitate her mixing with the other dogs without issue. We would recommend Dana to friends.

Dana and Nia did a great job with Elly. She had a lot of fun playing in their yard and was wiped out when I brought her home. We'll definitely be asking them to watch Elly again.

Great overall experience. I honestly think my dog was a bummed out he had to go back home.

Dana was so accommodating and able to take Luca last minute after our pet friendly Airbnb canceled on us. We don’t leave Luca often so it’s always nerve wracking but Dana provided updates and took amazing care of our boy. I will absolutley rebook in the future and would recommend Dana to anyone looking! 10/10 experience!

Safety, trust & environment

I grew up in a big family with seven siblings and my parents, but now that everyone’s moved out, our spacious home has become the perfect place to host doggies! 🐶💕 I run Lyonas’s Playhouse alongside my girlfriend, we share a Rover account, and you’ll probably see her in many of our videos, so be sure to say hi! 😄 Together, we make sure every dog is safe, loved, and cared for around the clock. Our yard is fully fenced with fresh green grass, perfect for playtime and potty breaks. We keep a clean, pet-friendly environment with no hazardous materials, ensuring every pup can relax and enjoy their stay. If you’re ever running late, just communicate with us, we totally understand life happens, and we’ll do the same for you. 😊 At night, puppies or dogs with pica (who may chew unsafe items) are guided into a crate for their safety. If your dog isn’t crate-tolerant or has any special safety concerns, please let us know through the Rover app before booking so we can plan the best setup for them. 🐾💛 (For all other dogs, our home is their playground, they’re free to roam, play, and relax just like family!)

A typical day

A typical fun day with the dogs starts with a sunrise walk, followed by games of fetch, belly rubs, and a visit to the dog park. We finish the day relaxing, watching TV, or snuggling on the couch together!

Dear pet parents, rest assured, your furry friend is always in safe and loving hands. 🐶💛 Dogs are naturally social creatures, and many of the pups here enjoy playing together throughout the day. If your dog isn’t comfortable socializing with others, please let me know in advance! It’s never a problem, I’ll simply create an alternative plan for their recess and playtime to ensure they feel happy, relaxed, and secure during their stay.
