Dog Boarding in Monticello

“Shonta provided excellent care for my Onyx! I had recently started a new job and needed someone to care for him. She sent several updates and he looked happy and content in her home. I will definitely call on her for my future needs.”

“Leo had a wonderful visit with Leila. We were so happy that we were leaving Leo the moment we dropped him. He had more frns that really made his stay feel special. He was well taken care of like a family and very calm when I picked him up. Sallie is very kind and updated us with pictures of him playing. We are pleased and looking forward for next booking. Thank you so very much.”

About: Following the passing of our beloved 13 year old furbaby Zoe shortly after Christmas in 2024, my husband Kenny and I decided to honor her memory by offering dog boarding services in our home. We wanted to create a space where other dogs would receive the same love and care that Zoe did while their owners are traveling or away. Now that we are both retired and home full-time, we are able to provide a calm, comfortable, and loving environment for dogs, free from the stress often found in traditional kennels. Our home offers a peaceful setting where dogs receive individualized attention and care - no concrete kennels or constant barking, just a cozy, welcoming atmosphere. Both Kenny and I have had dogs throughout our lives, often with two or three dogs at a time, as we do now. We have always adopted rescue dogs and regularly foster, with the aim of giving dogs a better future and a loving home. We have never, ever regretted this commitment. Currently, our family includes two dogs and two cats, all of whom get along well, are low-key, and are deeply loved. We have ample space and resources to care for your dog (or dogs!) as well, and would be delighted to do so. Additionally, we are pleased and honored to offer very low cost long-term boarding for any military service members who are deploying and need assistance caring for their dogs while they are away. Please feel free to reach out for more information. My husband and I are retired and have ample time and resources to provide exceptional care for your dog, just as we do for our own pets, as well as those of our friends and family. Although we do not have a fenced yard, we walk your dogs leashed. We live out in the country on a lake, in the middle of nowhere on our own private 2 acres, on a dead end cul-de-sac with no traffic at all. We have a very large 20'x30' detached game room that is our hangout space, and would be where the dogs played indoors and could bed down. We have smoke detectors and a monitored alarm system that covers the house and game room. We have an excellent Vet available in Newberry, as well as access to a visiting emergency Vet service here at the house. There are no children or aggressive dogs here.

“This is our third booking with Gina, our pups love her and we know she takes great care of them. She always communicates well, plenty of pics. Her home is clean and safe. Gina is kind and always professional. Thank you Gina!”

“Frances has watched our dog for more than a year now. He loves and rubs on her when he arrives so we know he enjoys his stay. Frances treats our dog like a member of the family and sends pictures and updates throughout the stay.”

“I had a WONDERFUL experience with Lisa and Sib! I have 3 little dogs that I don't board very often, and they did all the right things to make me feel comforted and informed while I was away. I received multiple daily updates and photos! 2 of my dogs require meds and they had no issues giving them their medications. They have a lovely pet friendly home and a large, dreamy backyard! I recommend them highly!”

“Daisy is the best! She was able to take in my sweet girl at the last minute! Sage learned some new neat tricks with Daisy, and she kept me updates with cute videos of Sage being Sage, loved it! You will not go wrong with Daisy as your BFF's new BFF! 💓”

Matrice H.

“Nicole was the best!!! We got daily updates and videos and pics of our pup while on vacation!!! So glad we found a loving family to keep him while we were away!!!”

Kelly H.

“What a wonderful place and space to leave my dog! Brandon and Sarah have an obvious love for all kinds of animals (cows, pigs, goats, chickens, turkeys, etc). They welcomed Sparky with open arms and were great about sending pictures. Would take Sparky back - absolutely!”

Harris M.

“Nontombe 😍 She kept us well informed on everything as well as sent pictures and videos while we were away. We felt extremely comfortable leaving our big baby with her. Nontombe's back yard was a huge playground for our dog with so much room for running and playing. This was our first time ever using a sitter and I'm so glad it was through this company. We definitely will be utilizing Rover again and for sure selecting Nontombe as our sitter! Bless you and your love for animals.”

“Leigh was exceptional with our puppy. She checked-in with us, sent pictures and videos, and responded to all of our questions. She is friendly and very easy to work with. We hope Leigh will be available to watch him again soon.”

Karilyn T.

“Snoopy had a great time and was well cared for! Taylor was kind, responsive, and I knew Snoopy was in good hands. I would gladly and confidently have Taylor take care of our pup again in the future!”

Katie W.

“Susanne was amazing with our little Peaches! She is super welcoming and provided us with several updates letting us know how Peaches was doing throughout her stay. She also has a great backyard for the pups to run around and play, which we really liked. We can’t say enough good things about Susanne, and will definitely be rebooking with her!”

Kristin A.

“Robin was incredible! She was not only attentive, she loved my dogs as if they were her own. I received updates throughout the sit and my dogs even had the opportunity to swim in the beautiful pool if they wanted to. They were fed on schedule, received lots of TLC, and got the exercise they needed. Great sit overall! Will book with Robin again in the future.”

Rowanne S.

“Margie is amazing! We left our Cavalier for the first time and he adjusted so well. He stayed with Margie for 6 nights and when we brought him home, he really missed her and some of his new buddies. She is a natural and treats your pet like they are part of her family. Highly recommend her if you have a small breed pet!”

Christina W.

“Michael did a great job caring for Boots. He was easy to communicate with and provided frequent updates while boarding him for the few days I was in town. Michael also was flexible and able to watch Boots an additional night when my apartment hunting took longer than expected. I will definitely be contacting Michael for my future dog care needs when I relocate to the area!”

Noelle H.

“This couple was very hands-on with Dixie and Zoe . Walks everyday , administered medicine to Dixie and sent pictures daily. Monica is at home all day and loves animals. My girls were very well taken care of!”

Roger C.

“Stacey and her family are truly the best. They spoiled my Nugget and were very flexible with my pickup and drop-off times. I received a picture of my boy every day having an absolute blast, getting lots of exercise, and even being allowed to cuddle with them in bed and watch football. 1000/10 will be seeking her services in the future!”

Alexis M.

“Dear Ms Karen, Thank you for taking such good care of me while my parents were out of town. I was not expecting my own doggie vacay but I did have a really good time! I enjoyed our walks and especially my relax time just hanging with you. I will tell my parents how good of time we had so I can come see you again soon! Love, Ginseng”

Larry B.

“Sebastian was amazing with my Marley. He was very attentive and very personable. He sent us updates everyday and was a pleasure to work with. We will only trust him from now on with our Marley.”
