Depending on your animal's physical capabilities and exercise needs, I can walk your dog or simply allow them to relieve themselves in my fenced in yard. And I can also take your dog to the dog park if they need some extra activity. Food will be provided based on your usual habits, and clean water will be supplied everyday.

Very good experience from 1st day I spoke with Ruth to the day I picked them up at end of my trip. Quick to respond and good communication. She sent updates and photos of my dogs at least once a day, sometimes twice, this gave me much peace of mind. My dogs looked like they were right at home. She was at home at agreed drop-off and pick-up times. She provided meds to my senior dog with no issues. I highly recommend Ruth and will book again with her if I’m ever in Miami again needing boarding for another cruise trip.
