Pet care experience

Single Dog Boarding 🐕

Personalized Dog Boarding & One-on-One Care I've raised and cared for animals my entire life — from two wonderful Staffordshire Bull Terriers to cats and even a Scarlet Macaw. That experience has taught me that every pet is unique and deserves individualized attention. That’s why I offer truly personalized care: I board only one dog at a time (unless they are from the same household), ensuring your pup receives my full focus with no off-leash exposure and no interactions with unfamiliar dogs. What Your Dog Can Expect 3–4 walks per day, tailored to your dog’s energy level 24/7 supervision for complete peace of mind Local walks or valley hikes upon request A calm, safe, and comfortable home environment Before Booking I start with a quick conversation to learn about your dog’s temperament, needs, and daily routine. If everything feels like a good fit, we’ll schedule a meet & greet so your pup can get familiar with me and the space. Rates Pricing is based on your dog’s individual needs. For repeat clients, we typically settle into a comfortable, mutually agreed-upon rate.

Steven had great communication throughout our pup’s short stay with multiple photos. It was great knowing she was in good hands.

Steven was AMAZING! Our dog went on so many daily adventures and by the end of the week he was a neighborhood celebrity. Steven kept us updated multiple times a day with a plethora of photogenic pictures! We didn’t worry one bit while we were away and are very grateful for the time and attention Steven poured into our fur baby! We highly recommend Steven as a #1 Rover sitter!

Steven always keeps George busy and entertained! Love the pics of their trips out and about. He also provides plenty of updates throughout George's stays.

Steven sends me photos and lets me know how things are going throughout tanners stay. Tanner is always happy to see Steven and makes himself right at home in the house and yard. Steven takes Tanner for many walks and I appreciate that because Tanner is high energy. I recommend Steven for dog care and boarding. Steven does a great job with Tanner.

So glad we connected with Steven. He was communicative and sent lots of photos of their daily adventures, which I really appreciated. My pup was so well taken care of and I wouldn’t hesitate to book again!

Steven was great with our 2 boys. He sent pictures at least 3 times a day, morning afternoon and evening. I highly recommend him for your pet watching needs.

Schedule

Dedicated Full-Time Dog Care When your dog stays with me, they’re never just left alone. Caring for dogs is my full-time job, and I provide around-the-clock supervision. Other than a brief trip for essentials, your pup has my full attention day and night. Because every dog has different needs, rates may vary. Some pups require more time, energy, or structure, and in those cases the rate is adjusted to reflect the additional supervision or management needed to keep them safe and comfortable. This ensures every dog receives the right level of care — and gives you the confidence that your furry friend is being looked after as if they were my own.

Safety, trust & environment

Safe & Secure Environment My home has a fully fenced backyard, built and maintained with safety in mind. After raising two strong alpha dogs here for 17 years, I made sure the fencing is secure and reliable. Dogs always get supervised time outside — I never just leave them unattended in the yard.

A typical day

Adventure & Daily Walks I live near Chatfield, so hikes and car rides are always on the game plan for dogs who enjoy adventure. The area is also great for park walks and local strolls, giving me plenty of options to match your dog’s energy level. Whether it’s a relaxing neighborhood walk or a longer outing, I build a specialized care plan around your dog’s needs and your requests.
