Dog Boarding Middletown

About: My husband and I have had animals in our lives for as long as we can remember. We share our home with cats and a dog, volunteer with local humane societies, and have experience fostering and caring for kittens. We’re also comfortable with senior pets and pets with medical needs after reviewing their routines with you. We serve the Hidden Valley Lake area only. We can care for pets in your home, or welcome them into ours if they’re comfortable around cats. We require a meet and greet before any booking so everyone, including our own pets, feels comfortable. While your pet is with us, we’ll follow their routine and treat them like family. My husband is retired, and I work from home, so we can give pets attention throughout the day. We plan care around each pet’s needs, whether that means visits in your home or a stay in ours. We start with a meet and greet to learn your pet’s routine and decide together whether they’d be most comfortable in your home or ours. Cats are our specialty, and we also enjoy caring for dogs who are comfortable with everyday walks and visits. We don’t offer dog training or behavior modification. A stay in our home depends on your pet being comfortable around our six cats and large dog. We have a fully fenced side yard and a fenced backyard, and visiting pets are always supervised outdoors.

“Great sitters! They were friendly, communicative, and flexible. My dog came back happy, and they made me feel completely at ease despite his separation anxiety.”

“I booked with Earl super last minute so I really appreciated him getting back to me and watching Norma. She stayed for one night and seemed very relaxed when I got her back which I thought was awesome. Earl sent me some photos of her during her stay to keep me updated. Will definitely book again :)”

“Tim was GREAT with my puppy Frankie!!! He sent me pictures and gave regular updates on how he was doing. Tim has a great gated front yard for the dogs to play without worry about traffic or other animals. He was patient and answered questions even before I finalized the booking!! Tim has extensive knowledge of dogs as he also trains them. Thank you very much Tim for making my night a stress free one knowing my puppy was in good hands!!! Rhonda”

“Diego was absolutely wonderful with our teddy bear! He gave him all of his meds and made sure that he was comfortable! He is such a happy boy! Other times we’ve had other sitters and he comes back different. Our Teddy came back the same if not better! We will definitely book him again such a wonderful person inside and out! Thank you Diego!”

“Melissa was so thoughtful and kind to both Daisy and I. It was our first time leaving Daisy since we adopted her. Melissa took the time to let us visit her home for a meet-and -greet and sniffs of her property a few days before Daisy’s stay. Melissa was so thoughtful and attentive to Daisy’s needs. I have no doubt that Daisy is in good hands with Melissa .”

About: I was a dog walker and pet sitter in college. Since then I’ve mostly pet sat for friends. Recently started working from home and am available for more regular sitting and walking. I have a cat and an elderly/special needs dog myself and have experience caring for all kinds. I well versed in medicating, and other special needs. I work from home with very flexible hours so I am fairly available during the week for drop ins, walks and boarding. I have some weekend availability also for overnights. As a pet owner myself I know how much we care for our animals and I understand the trust it takes putting their care in another’s hands. I take that responsibility, as well as their safety, wellbeing and comfort seriously. Whether in my home or yours, I’ll provide them with the utmost care and respect.

About: I grew up with dogs and recently lost my best friend, a corgi, Teddy. As a long time dog-owner, I understand how much anxiety goes into leaving your dog with someone else. I will treat your dog/s as if they were my own. I have much experience with aging / elderly dogs and dogs with special needs (dogs with leash aggression, anxiety, allergies, and prosthetic limbs/wheel chairs). My goal is to get to know you and your dog, and provide tailored service to meet your wants and your furry loved one's needs. I am happy to provide updates and pictures of our time together too! I work from home and have a flexible schedule. Please reach out if you have any additional questions for me! Thank you! I work from home, which allows for frequent walks, potty breaks and play time! Both the dogs and myself appreciate the breaks within the day! I have a fenced in yard and multiple ring cameras to ensure everyone's safety. Neighboring houses do not have dogs; it is a quiet and peaceful environment.

About: I’m a dedicated pet lover with a lifetime of experience caring for animals. I currently have a 10-year-old dog and a cat who is truly my baby, so I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your pets. Having grown up in a household with dogs and cats my entire life, I’m comfortable with pets of all ages, personalities, and energy levels. Whether your pet loves playtime, walks, cuddles, or simply having a calm companion around, I’ll make sure they feel safe, loved, and cared for while you’re away. I treat every pet like they’re part of my own family! I am the owner of my business with a flexible schedule. I am available every morning, all day typically Tuesdays and Fridays. And later afternoons Monday Wednesday and Thursday. Please reach out and we can go more into detail about your specific needs, I am flexible I will treat your home and your pet like they are my own. Having grown up with cats and dogs in my household my entire life I know how chaotic it can be. I will be there to minimize chaos and make your animals feel safe and comfortable.

“Chris was awesome with our antsy Australian Shepard Mabel. Mabel took to Chris right away and was clearly comfortable and very well looked after based on all the pictures and videos that Chris sent our way during our 10 day vacation. Mabel was sad to leave her house and will pull on the leash when we walk past! Chris was also very responsive and flexible with our hours and made the process easy and smooth especially over a holiday weekend. We will 100% book with Chris again!”

About: I’ve loved animals since I was young and have been around dogs my whole life. I’ve had my own dog, Simba, since March 2021, and he’s very much part of my family. I genuinely enjoy having dogs around and getting to know their different personalities. I’m home full-time, so I’m able to give pets a lot of attention and company throughout the day. I enjoy going on walks, playing, hanging out, and just having a dog around while I go about my day. I’m also someone who pays attention to the little details and will make sure your pet’s normal routine is followed. I know leaving your dog with someone else requires trust. I’ll treat your pet with the same care and patience I’d want someone to give Simba. I’m happy to send updates and photos while you’re away, and I’ll make sure your dog gets plenty of attention, affection, and care. I’d love to meet your pup and hopefully become someone they’re excited to see! I work from home full-time, so I have a flexible schedule and am around the house throughout the day. I’m able to give pets plenty of attention, take them for walks, and keep them company rather than leaving them alone for long periods. I already have a regular routine with my own dog, Simba, and I’m happy to adjust my schedule to fit each pet’s individual needs and routine. I’ll be caring for pets in my home, where I have a fenced yard that gives dogs a safe place to get outside, play, and explore. I’m home full-time, so pets will have plenty of supervision and company throughout the day. I’ve had my own dog, Simba, since 2021 and have been around dogs my whole life. I’m very attentive to their behavior and individual needs, and I’m careful about things like doors, gates, food, and making sure they’re comfortable in a new environment. My goal is for your dog to feel like they’re staying with a friend rather than being somewhere unfamiliar. I’ll follow their usual routine as closely as possible and keep you updated with photos and messages so you know they’re happy and doing well.
