Loving Care When You Can’t Be There

***Private Boarding: One Pet Family at a Time **11MILES from Hobby*****I’m Kathryn—a lifelong animal out lover with over a year of hands-on experience fostering dogs of all sizes, breeds, and personalities. From the high-energy zoomies to the super shy cuddle bugs, I’ve seen it all and I’m ready for anything your pup might need! When you board your pet with me.. if I’m not home there’s always an adult there! So no fear someone will always be there with your pet!!! While I’m no longer actively fostering, I still love spending time with dogs and creating a safe, fun, and comforting space for them while you’re away. I provide toys, a cozy bed, yummy treats (with your approval!), and clean food and water bowls—so all you need to bring is your pet’s food and any specific instructions. I truly enjoy connecting with each cat or dog and making sure they feel right at home. Whether your dog is playful, chill, quirky, or somewhere in between, I’ll treat them like family. Can’t wait to meet your furry friend!

Kathryn and her family treated our pups better than anyone on this platform has in the past! They got runs, went to the park, picked out toys, got some pup cups, and clearly had a lot of love and attention. I really appreciated the daily updates on what they got up to. We’ll be back for sure!

Schedule

I offer dog boarding and walking services built around your pet’s needs and comfort. I have a flexible work schedule, and I only take in dogs when I’m fully available to give them the attention they deserve. Whether it’s a walk during the day or an overnight stay, your pup will get plenty of love, playtime, and care while they’re with me!

Safety, trust & environment

Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I have a fully fenced-in yard for safe outdoor play, and my home is calm, pet-free, and ready to give your dog all the attention they need. I live with my awesome husband and two amazing kids (ages 18 and 20), who are gentle, responsible, and love animals too. Your pup will be treated like family and never have to compete for love or space. Whether we’re playing, snuggling, or just hanging out, your dog will feel safe, seen, and totally spoiled. And don’t worry, I will send you many Daily updates and pictures throughout your animal stay!!!!

A typical day

A typical day with me is all about keeping your dog happy, comfortable, and engaged! We’ll start with some outside time to stretch, sniff, and get some energy out in the fenced yard. Throughout the day, your pup will get plenty of love, playtime, and chances to relax in a cozy, quiet space. I follow your pet’s usual routine as closely as possible, whether that means feeding schedules, potty breaks, or special instructions. Walks, treat breaks (with your approval!), and lots of affection are all part of the day. Your dog will be in a calm, pet-free home where they’re the star of the show!

I used to foster dogs of all breeds, ages, and personalities—so I’m comfortable caring for pups with all kinds of needs! That said, it’s always helpful to know ahead of time if your dog has any special routines, quirks, medical needs, or behavior triggers. Whether they’re crate trained, need meds, have separation anxiety, or just don’t like loud noises—I want to know it all so I can make their stay as smooth and stress-free as possible. I’m excited to meet your pup and make them feel totally at home!
