Home
Information Lara A. would like to know about your pet
Meet and greets are important to me, so your pup can come over ahead of time and check out their future surroundings and get familiarized with where they’re going to be staying. I do understand that some bookings are made by those who are not from around the area, and that is totally fine. In those instances a meet and greet may not be possible. But that will not mean a booking will be refused.
A typical day
With many rope toys, chew toys, and balls, there is much fun to be had indoors and outdoors. During the summer I bring out the kiddie pool so that the pups can enjoy a nice cool dip when it’s hot outside. Rain, some, or snow, we all go outside every 1-2 hours through the day!

Balls & Bones Boarding and Daycare
Pet care experience
I absolutely adore all animals and would love the opportunity to provide my services and care for you special furry family member. I have three pups who would make wonderful playmates and companions during your pet's stay. In regards to the negative review on September 16, I invite you to check out the extended videos and extra photos on my Facebook page at Balls & Bones Boarding and Daycare. There you will see a video the morning of the day that Bentley, the boxer, and Cooper the golden retriever, went home. The video is the first comment on the post dated 9/21/2023. There is plenty of room indoors and out. I have a large fenced in backyard where your pooch can run around to their heart's content. Indoors and out, there is plenty of access to water. I absolutely love taking photos and sending videos during your loved one’s stay. I know that I would appreciate many photos and videos of my babies if I had to be away from them. I do this for the love of dogs and because it brings me so much joy to put your mind at ease and give your pup a wonderful stay while you’re away. I currently work full-time from home indefinitely. Not only am I able to enjoy my career, I’m able to multitask and give your darling the love and attention they need throughout the day and night. I promise to treat your furry friend the same way you do while they are in my home. Their comfort, relaxation and happiness is my number one priority.
Reviews


My dogs perk up every time we turn onto Lara's road. They are excited to see her, even the anxiously attached one who hates being left anywhere!

Harlow had so much fun! Lara kept me updated the entire time with pictures and videos and I know he was loved the same way I love him! Harlow will definitely be back!

Lucy had the best time with Lara! We appreciated the frequent updates and pictures we received and we know she was in great hands. Highly recommend Lara!
Absolutely perfect! We had a last-minute change of holiday plans and needed to find a dog sitter. Thankfully, Lara was able to watch our two boys on short notice. We loved the pictures and videos she sent us frequently and since our dogs had never been boarded before, it helped knowing they were doing good. We will definitely hire her again should the need arise! I would recommend her to anyone needing her services. Thank you Lara!
