Dog Boarding Milltown

About: I have hands-on experience with high-energy dogs and know how to keep them happy, exercised, and mentally engaged. I’m patient and attentive, with a gentle approach that works well for both playful pups and older dogs who need a little extra care. Pet care is a natural part of my daily and weekly routine. As a veteran Marine and someone who has competitively trained dogs since 2020, I approach pet care with structure, consistency, and discipline. I make sure pets are cared for with structure, safety, and attention to detail. I follow consistent feeding schedules, provide exercise and play tailored to each pet’s needs, and keep their environment clean and comfortable. With my background in competitive dog training, I also incorporate positive reinforcement and mental stimulation to ensure pets are not only well cared for but also engaged and happy.

“Gabriella was the most incredible help with our dog June. We seriously could not have asked for a better family to watch our girl. The level of attention, love and care she gave allowed us to be at peace on our trip and trust that June was having the best time as well. We could not recommend Gabriella enough and forever grateful we found her.”

About: I work remotely and love taking walks throughout the day to stop looking at screens. I go for frequent runs, walks and hikes and love taking a dog with me, just let me know if you would like your pup to get extra exercise! I live in downtown CDA area with a large fenced yard and a great neighborhood for walks! I only take in one dog at a time. I had both dogs and cats growing up and I'm a proud Aunty of all my friends dogs when they are out of town. I always look forward to it! If you have a strong high energy dog, don't sweat it. I had a retriever/chow mix for 14 years and I'm stronger than I look. :) Currently I work in real estate so I make my own hours and have plenty of time to walk your pup and give them extra attention I have a large fenced yard, a good size home for them to roam around, and a great neighborhood for long walks. <3 danyelle .

About: I grew up with a menagerie of animals, including lots of dogs of all shapes and sizes. I spent many years fostering dogs and volunteering with dog adoptions for the ASPCA. While I’m new to Rover, my friends and family have counted on me for years to dog sit, train, dog walk, etc. their furry family members. I am very active and your pup will get long morning walks, hikes, and lots of exercise! I have a large fenced in yard as well. Animals bring me so much joy, and I couldn't imagine a life without them :) I have one dog who has a moderate activity level. Every morning we take a long (at least an hour) walk before I leave for work. I currently work Monday-Thursday but am available to pop home for potty breaks if your dog is boarded with me. Friday-Sunday I am around at home and take dogs with me for walks or hikes on those days. If your dog is a couch potato, that works too :) I have a warm and welcoming dog-friendly home. They'll find lots of stuffies and soft & cozy places to land. Your dog will get lots of pets and cuddles but I also give them space to rest and get settled in. My dog loves to play with other dogs and I have a large fenced in yard as well for playtime!

About: 🐾 Double the Love, Double the Care: Active, Experienced Family Ready to Pamper Your Pup! Hi there, fellow dog lovers! If you are looking for a pet-sitting team that will treat your four-legged family member like royalty, you’ve found us. I’m a lifelong dog devotee, and I am completely obsessed with dogs of all shapes, sizes, and breeds. What truly sets us apart as Rover sitters is that your dog gets a full family experience with round-the-clock attention, endless cuddles, and an ultra-active lifestyle tailored exactly to their energy levels. Here is what makes our home the ultimate vacation spot for your pup: • Over a Decade of Hands-On Experience: My journey started with my own German Shepherd, Misty, whom I raised and loved from birth until she passed at 12 years old. Having a large breed from puppyhood through her golden senior years gave me deep, firsthand knowledge of puppy training boundaries and the gentle, attentive senior care needed for aging joints and medication schedules. • The Dynamic Duo Effect: Because my 12-year-old and I work as a team, your dog will never feel lonely. We are regular "foster mamas" and the go-to dog sitters for all our friends' pets. We know how to read dog body language, respect their boundaries, and shower them with the exact type of affection they prefer in our clean and smoke free home. • Active Adventures & Infinite Cuddles: We love to stay moving! Whether your dog thrives on long, energetic walks and playing fetch or prefers a slow, breezy stroll around the neighborhood, we adapt to them. • The Ultimate Couch Companions: Once the energy is burned off, we are big believers in couch cuddles. If your dog is used to sleeping at the foot of the bed or getting belly rubs, they will get a 5-star cuddle experience here. We know how hard it is to leave your baby behind, which is why we commit to sending you frequent photo and video updates. We can't wait to welcome your pup into our pack! As a stay-at-home mama, your pup becomes a seamless part of our daily routine and is rarely left alone! While I am home most days and nights to provide constant love, I do have occasional brief outings for errands or family activities. Here is how we seamlessly blend pet care into our routine: • Constant Companionship: Because I am home the vast majority of the day, your dog gets consistent supervision, frequent potty breaks, and endless love from my 12-year-old and me. • On-the-Go Buddy: For my brief outings, I love to bring your pup along with me whenever possible! If they enjoy car rides and running errands, they will get to be my little sidekick. • Safe & Brief Alone Time: If an outing isn't dog-friendly, their alone time will be kept very short. We will ensure they are perfectly safe, comfortable, and settled before we step out. • Tailored Routines: We easily map our day around your dog's regular schedule for feeding, medications, and walks, ensuring their routine stays exactly as it is at home. Your little one will get the perfect mix of active family life, fun outings, and cozy couch time! We offer a safe, pristine, and entirely dog-focused environment where your pup gets 100% of our attention! Because we currently do not have any pets of our own, your dog won't have to share the spotlight or deal with the stress of strange animals—our home belongs entirely to them during their stay. Here is exactly how we care for your little one in our home: • A Clean, Smoke-Free Space: Our home is entirely non-smoking, tidy, and safely dog-proofed. Your pup will have plenty of clean, comfortable spaces to relax, stretch out, and feel right at home. • Our Peaceful End-Unit & "Yard" Space: We live in a quiet end unit of a beautiful new complex. Because we are right next to a gorgeous green space, it feels just like having our very own yard for quick, easy, and safe potty breaks! • A Safe Community with Friendly Neighbors: There are no random strangers around here. Our complex is a tight-knit community filled with friendly neighbors and sweet local dogs who love to pass by for happy tail wags, gentle hugs, and enthusiastic slobber kisses. • Tons of Entertainment & Play: We are fully stocked with a variety of fun toys for fetching, chewing, and mental stimulation. Playtime is a huge event in our house, and my 12-year-old and I love getting on the floor to engage with them. • Epic Walks Near DOMA, Atlas Park, & the River: We are incredibly spoiled by our location! We are just a few blocks from the river, DOMA, and the beautiful trails and water at Atlas Park. We tailor our walks to your dog's specific energy level—whether they want a slow, sniff-heavy stroll by the water or a brisk, energetic park adventure. • A Safe & Gentle Environment: With just myself and my child, our home is a peaceful, predictable environment. We emphasize gentle handling, respecting boundaries, and creating a stress-free "home away from home" experience.

“Kate was communicative, kind, helpful, consistent, and most of all a great experience for my little meatball Mingus! I received a slew of adorable photo updates during his stay and am 100% satisfied with the care he received. Thank you so much!”
