Highlights
Pet care experience
Private boarding experience!
I have been training dogs for 25+ years and show my dogs in conformation, hunt test, rally, dock diving, etc. I volunteered at many vet offices over the years and do continued education though the AKC, and belong to several dog clubs. I have a vast knowledge of animal husbandry and first aid, and specialize in individualized care for special needs dogs including medication and injections.
Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
Our dog seemed well taken care of. Wendy was always quick to respond and she sent a picture when I was missing my girl. Thanks Wendy!

Wendy was great and perfect for us to board Playdoh at while at Silverwood. She was very responsive and flexible which was perfect for the situation. Would use her again in a heart beat.

I felt my dogs were safe and in good hands


Very nice facility and you can tell she cares for her animals very highly :) we will be back!

We left our golden retriever with Wendy recently for over a week. Our dog has never been boarded in a barn nor slept in a crate for short periods. This required some adjustment on our dogs part. I was told he was noisy and uneasy for the first few days before settling down. In the end it all worked out. It was probably a good experience for him to spend time away from us and to socialize with other dogs. Having said that we were glad to find Wendy. She has the extra credential of being a dog trainer. She took good care of our dog and provided good status communication during boarding time. Recommended if boarding on a barn with other dogs is an option.
Great communication, friendly and great directions. We were in the area for a wedding, but if we ever need a sitter in that area we will definitely use Wendy again.

Schedule
I currently show and train dogs, so I fit my boarding and pet sitting into my schedule easily! I can usually accommodate last minute bookings as well as holidays. I have a Priest River address, but I am technically closer to Athol. I’m just 15 minutes from the Athol exit off Hwy 95, and only 20 minutes from Silverwood.
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
We live on a private road on 7 acres. There is 2 big fenced dog areas that dogs are supervised in. Our creek is usually flowing nicely during the spring for the dogs to enjoy as well. *Your dog will be in an individual large kennel run that is indoor (heated/cooled) and leads to a covered outdoor area. They will be able to be with us in our home depending on your dogs comfort and training level. Our place is very private and peaceful and you’re welcome to come out before and meet us! More photos available on request.
Pets
A typical day
Besides playing fetch, giving lots of snuggles and taking everyone for walks around the property, I love to take photos of dogs next to our 1948 Ford pickup.

- Is your dog crate trained? Has your dog ever been boarded before in a traditional style kennel? Any aggression with food or other dogs/animals? Any allergies? Are they off leash trained, or need to be on a leash when walking.
