Private Dog Park for your Pup!
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ To all my regular hoomans and pups, thank you for the kind words and support after loosing my sweet Honey Girl. I needed some time to grieve her passing, but I’m happy to be back boarding her old friends! My family and I have owned, rescued, fostered and advocated for countless animals of all kinds. The sweet girl in my profile pic, Honey, made to almost 16 years old, her sister and brother made it to 16 and 17!! Lots of love, good food, and low stress seems to be the magic formula ;) ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Once again Juno had the time of her life with Dustin. She truly did not want to leave because she was having so much fun all week.
Dustin was absolutely fantastic! He went above and beyond to make both us and our anxious pup feel completely at ease. From the start, he showed a natural gift for calming Smitty, who has some separation anxiety, and he kept us updated throughout the stay with multiple photo updates that truly put our minds at rest. Dustin’s setup is a dream for any dog, with a sprawling yard where they can roam and play freely. Smitty got VIP treatment, having the place to himself along with Dustin's friendly dog as a playmate. We can't recommend Dustin’s kind, expert service enough – he’s the best!
Dustin has always been super reliable and our dog has always and literally always returned even happier! Our dog doesn’t like being away from us, but Dustin makes him feel right at home. I highly recommend him! Great for all dogs!
Dustin was great with Ginger, this was her first time away from me and she had a great time. He sent pictures and videos daily. I would highly recommend him. Thank you Dustin! Cindy
Dustin took excellent care of our dog Luca. Luca is a 3 year old terrier/poodle mix plus a variety of dog lines. I would call Dustin again for a future dog sitting.
I’ve never used Rover before and have never left Valor in the care of someone else. I was more than satisfied with Dustin! He put my mind at ease, allowed me to visit his property so Valor and I could see it prior to his stay and answered all of my questions. Valor had a wonderful time!! Dustin sent me photos and videos and got back to me right away when I checked in. He definitely cared about Valor and made him feel comfortable and loved. I was never worried about how Valor was doing.

Schedule
I work from home and stay close to home often, preferring to take my holidays off season so I can be available for boarding and day care when my clients are away. ⭐️ Standard drop off/pickup hours: 8am - 7pm, after hours rates apply ⭐️
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
‼️I WILL AIRTAG YOUR PUP IMMEDIATELY @ DROP OFF ‼️ They will then begin to enjoy a 2 Acre property, fully fenced, along with a dedicated lower level of the home, which is built into the cool hillside…where all of the dogs can be found escaping to on a hot day! A true “destination resort” for dogs 🤣 ⚠️ For new dogs I require a meet and greet and in most cases, a trial overnight stay, prior to booking a visit longer than 2 nights. Although meet and greets are helpful, it is very hard to accurately asses how a dog will do here without an overnight. I also take great pride in making sure that the mix of dogs is the absolute best possible! This place is heaven for the right dogs, far better than being in a kennel, like park a pup

A typical day
Each morning your pup will romp around the property, to explore and go potty. Later, we may go for a hike or walk around some of the many local trails that Novato has to offer, though most of the time the pups are busy on the property safely exploring all its glorious smells! In good weather, dogs may have free rein to play outside all day, lay in the sun, and roam around. However if the owner prefers, they can stay inside and under tight supervision.
