I’m home full-time, which means pet care is truly integrated into my entire day. I’m able to provide constant supervision, companionship, and care. Your pet will never be left alone for long periods and will receive plenty of love and attention throughout the day. From early morning potty breaks and walks to mid-day play sessions and evening snuggles, I build my daily routine around the needs of the pets I’m boarding. I stick closely to each pet’s home routine whether that includes feeding schedules, medication, crate time, or special activities to help them feel safe, relaxed, and at home. Because I’m always around, I can offer a calm, consistent environment that’s especially great for puppies, seniors, or pets with anxiety who do best with extra care and stability. Weekends are just as pet-focused, with more time for longer walks, enrichment activities, and cozy downtime. Caring for pets isn’t just part of my day, it is my day, and I wouldn’t have it any other way.

Safety, trust & environment
When pets stay in my home, their safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. I provide a calm, structured environment that helps pets settle in and feel at home. My home is pet-friendly, clean, and fully pet-proofed, with plenty of cozy spots to relax and a securely fenced yard where dogs can safely explore, play, or sunbathe under supervision. I only board a small number of pets at a time so I can give each one the individual care and attention they deserve. I do slow, supervised introductions when needed and follow your pet’s routine as closely as possible including feeding times, crate preferences, medications, and bedtime habits. Since I’m home full-time, your pet will never be left alone for long. I monitor their behavior, appetite, and overall well-being throughout the day. I also send regular updates and photos so you can feel confident and connected while you're away. Your pet’s safety and emotional well-being are everything to me. I aim to provide a secure, loving home where your dog feels relaxed, cared for, and part of the family.

Information Lisa D. would like to know about your pet
To provide the best care possible, I always appreciate knowing a few key things before your pet stays with me: - Daily routine: Feeding schedule, potty habits, walk preferences, and sleeping arrangements. - Personality: Are they shy, energetic, cuddly, independent, or reactive? What helps them feel comfortable in new environments? - Triggers or fears: Loud noises, other dogs, strangers, or separation anxiety? This helps me keep them calm and safe. - Health info: Any medications, allergies, recent illnesses, or mobility issues. - Behavior with other dogs: Friendly, selective, or prefer to be the only pet? I tailor playtime and interactions accordingly. - Training cues: Any commands or rules you'd like me to reinforce while they’re with me. The more I know, the more I can make your pet feel right at home. My goal is always to match the care they get with the love and routine they’re used to with you!
A typical day
Every pet is different, so I tailor activities to match their personality, age, and energy level but the goal is always the same: to keep them happy, stimulated, and feeling loved. For playful or active dogs, we’ll enjoy: - Fetch and tug-of-war in the fenced yard - Walks around the neighborhood or nearby parks - Puzzle toys and interactive games to keep their minds busy - Fun training sessions using positive reinforcement For more mellow pups or seniors, I offer: - Relaxing strolls and lots of sniff time - Cuddle sessions on the couch or in a sunny spot - Gentle enrichment like snuffle mats or lick mats - Calm companionship and routine to keep them feeling secure I also love capturing their personalities in photos and sharing those special moments with you. Whether your pet loves to play hard or just chill out, I make sure their stay is full of joy, comfort, and a whole lot of tail wags.

The Grove Fur Family Home 🐾
Pet care experience
Welcome to the Grove Fur Family Home! I specialize in home boarding and take pride in creating a safe, loving, and low-stress environment where your pet feels like part of the family. My home is pet-friendly, secure, and set up to ensure comfort, whether your dog loves to curl up on the couch, sunbathe by a window, or play in a fenced yard. What sets me apart is the personal attention I give to every dog in my care. I only take a limited number of pets at a time to ensure each one gets plenty of individual attention, playtime, and snuggles. I maintain routines similar to what they’re used to at home including feeding, walks, naps, and medication if needed. I have experience boarding: - Puppies who need consistent potty breaks, crate training, and gentle structure. - Senior dogs who need a slower pace, medication, and extra comfort. - Dogs with special needs or separation anxiety who benefit from a calm, consistent environment. You’ll receive regular updates, photos, and honest communication while your pet stays with me. My goal is to make every boarding stay feel like a vacation for both you and your pet! *First timers, use my code LISAD18542 for $20 off!*
Reviews
Lisa was fantastic! She took excellent care of my boy and made sure he was comfortable the entire time. She was very communicative and kept me updated throughout, which gave me real peace of mind. I highly recommend her—thank you again, Lisa!
We had a wonderful experience with Lisa! She took excellent care of our Samoyed, Ares, while we were away. From the start, she was warm, professional, and communicative—sending us regular updates and photos that gave us total peace of mind. Ares looked so happy and relaxed the whole time. It’s clear Lisa genuinely loves dogs and treats them like her own. We’re so grateful to have found her and will absolutely book with her again. Highly recommend
Great dog sitter
Amazing dog sitter and family. We felt so secure with Lisa and her home for our pup. Definitely recommend!
