AFFORDABLE OVERNIGHT DOG BOARDING

I know a dog is part of the family, that is why I do not confine your dog to a kennel or run for the day. They are free to roam my home and secured fenced yard. There is plenty of room for your pet to play with other dogs while staying in my home. My dog boarding facility is my home, and your dog will be treated like one of my own. I do not at any time crate dogs, and your pet sleeps in my bedroom at night together with me so that I can ensure they are safe. I have been boarding pets for the last 7 years and have repeat satisfied customers. I have always loved animals and they are part of my life. More information about myself - I live in a free-standing residential home in Aurora. I am retired and this makes me available full time with my pet guests.

Rae is an amazing pet sitter. She took such wonderful care of my dog with so much patience, love, and attention. My dog was happy, comfortable, and well looked after throughout the stay. She kept me updated, which gave me great peace of mind. I truly felt I could trust her completely, and I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and reliable pet sitter.

We were very happy with Rae. It was clear how much care and love she has for dogs. Our dogs were well cared for which says everything. We received regular updates, photos, and messages that gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a dependable and caring and loving pet sitter!
