Availability

We are mostly homebodies! Hailey homeschools our kids, so other than a couple of hours here & there for errands and extracurriculars, the dogs have someone here with them. When we do have to leave the house, we have crates for dogs who are crate trained, or a dog-safe sunroom in our home. We only crate dogs who are comfortable and familiar with crate use at home. She is caring for our own pets all-day everyday, so fitting your pup into our routine will be a breeze!

Safety, trust & environment

We have a large, fully fenced yard, and a cooled sunroom just for the dogs! We are fully insured, in addition to the Rover guarantee. We have 4 personal dogs, Junior who is a special needs mini Aussie, Ursa, a hound mix, and in 2025, we adopted Duke, a goofy red lab, and Cody, a playful terrier mix pup. Our cat Wraith is super friendly, and is fine to interact with dogs, or keep to himself if they're too interested. Our dogs are experienced in a commercial boarding facility & have been around a lot of dogs, so are fantastic companions for dogs staying with us. We accept 3-4 guest dogs at a time, and work very hard to only accept dogs at the same time who will do well with the others staying with us.

Information Hailey & William D. would like to know about your pet

Your dog must be kid, cat & dog friendly in order to stay with us. We do accept intact males under a year, and will evaluate those over 1 year. We require a meet & greet prior to boarding, for the familiarity of your dog and the safety of our family. All dogs tend to be less anxious if they’ve visited a home/person before and have been able to go home, rather than just being dropped off overnight the very first visit. For any stays 7+ days, we may require a (paid) trial night of boarding in order to fully observe the dog in our home, and get them familiar with the environment.

A typical day

We'll typically let the dogs out between 6-7am for their first bathroom break of the day, and then their last break will be around 8pm. Breakfast between 8-9 (though we can accommodate earlier), dinner between 5-6, and nap/enrichment time in the afternoon! We love enrichment toys in our house! Puzzle toys, toppls/kongs stuffed with food, and we play hide & seek with our own dogs with a small kong. We offer walks (for an extra fee) in the mornings or evenings, when it’s cool out.

Pet care experience

We have 10+ years experience boarding in commercial facilities and in our home, in a previous state. Will worked as a dog trainer for a time, went to school for dog training & worked under a mentor, but ended up stopping just before receiving his CPDT-KA certification. You can also check out our boarding business' website (The Bone & Breakfast) to read more about my (Hailey) experience as a professional, as well as Will’s. We (met at &) both worked at a large commercial boarding facility (100+ dogs a day!) and have handled all sorts of dog breeds & personalities. From teacup Chihuahuas and Morkies to Cane Corsos, Tibetan Mastiffs & Irish Wolfhounds, we’ve worked with them all! We both have experience with administering all types of medications, including eye drops & insulin. We have experience with special needs dogs, and one of our personal pups is deaf & special needs. We have fed all sorts of diets, from prepared raw & natural prey diets, to home cooked & plain kibble. We also have experience with cats, livestock, poultry, rabbits, and some exotic pets. Please feel free to reach out if you have any questions!

Hailey & William are awesome. Moka has stayed with them previously and happily goes to their home. She is very spoiled with attention when she’s at their house. They said pictures, videos , and feedback daily which is very much appreciated. Moka is looking forward to her next stay with them. Thank you!

OMG!!! I am blown AWAY by Hailey, Will, and their pack. It was our little Athena’s first time going to daycare, and her first time hanging out with kids and other dogs. Hailey sent me photos and updates all day and Athena had the time of her life! She is now fast asleep in my lap after a day full of fun and excitement. I look forward to future bookings with Hailey, Will and Co.
