"Paws By The Lake"

Pet care experience

$ My rates are higher if booking on here, due to fees charged by the platform. $ We live on Georgia Mountain in Guntersville, Alabama. On a private dead end road, surrounded by hundreds of acres of land/woods. It is very secluded with plenty of room for your pups to run and play, with no worries of public roads or traffic. Me and my husband spend our free time boating, hiking, hunting, fishing, and just about anything outdoors! We love to take our furry guest along with us on adventures as well! We have three dogs, Xena, Millie, and Remington. I have 20+ years of experience with animals, from dogs and cats, all the way to farm animals and even wildlife rehabilitating! Pet boarding, dog walking, drop-ins, transportation, and grooming are my full time job. I own my own business, Paws By The Lake. Luckily, that allows me to spend the majority of my time at home. https : / / www . facebook . com / guntersville paws by the lake / Give us a like on FB to keep up to date with everything and feel free to message us! Your pets safety is my #1 priority. I take any and all precautions that I feel may be necessary to keep your pups safe. All crates, food/water dishes, toys, bedding, and play areas are cleaned and disinfected daily.

Shelby was available to board our dogs at the last minute! Awesome experience all around and will definitely be using again!

Shelby is awesome! This was my first time using Rover and the first time boarding our dog, and it went better than I could ever have imagined! He was so happy, and I would not hesitate to leave our dog with Shelby again! You can tell she really cares and has a kind heart.

Paws By The Lake is a life saver! I have never been able to board my dogs (the first time was the last time) because the facility I used the first time disregarded all of my requests for my dogs. I found Shelby on Facebook and decided to meet her before hand, so we did a little meet up at her house. My dogs instantly made themselves right at home, they weren't nervous or scared. She kept me updated throughout there stay, sent pictures, and even was able to give shots every day. So glad I found her, my mind is at ease for my dogs.

I booked with "Paws By The Lake" and have no complaints. Shelby was very accommodating and I will be using her again. Look up Paws by the lake on Facebook (you can book from it). I only needed her for a few hours this time but next time will be for a 14 days while I am traveling.
