Top rated Northfield pet boarders

“Ella is outstanding! We've used her consistently over the past few years and always have the utmost confidence in her and know that Kona is receiving love and care that matches our own! I'd give her 10 stars if I could.”


“Corrine B did an outstanding job with our 12 year old Minature Schauzer who is blind and insulin dependent for 2 weeks. We were out of the country and she gave us updates on how he was doing. She had a diabetic dog who passed about ten years ago. She was a pro with the newer technology of testing and adjust the insulin like a professional for our fur baby. I plan to ask her to provide his care in the future. She is a kind and dedicated dog sitter. Our pup thought he went to his auntie’s house. He was spoiled and well cared for throughout his stay”


“She was very good on taking care of my dog was gone for ten days sending video and pictures every day I would definitely recommend and come back later thank you Ariel”



“Nancy was terrific! Very easy to make arrangements with her. She took excellent care of Cooper, and he came home as happy as ever. We also got regular updates and photos during his stay.”

“Blue had the best time with Gabriela & her family! She was well taken care of and looked so happy in all of the videos Gabriela sent. Blue had tons of play time with Gabriela and her family, but also spent lots of time cuddling on the couch with them. Gabriela made my time on vacation so enjoyable knowing I didn't have to worry about how Blue was doing. I am so happy that Blue stayed with her and would 100% recommend! Will be using her again :)”


“Jennifer is fantastic! We needed a last minute sitter for the 4th and she was able to board Miso no problem! Jennifer was very prompt with communication and kept me updated with pictures! Will definitely board here again.”


“Cynthia is an outstanding sitter and a great person. She took the time to get to know me and my dog while showing me her house, which was very comforting! Cynthia also sent me timely updates and complied with all food requests, we will definitely be back! 5 stars!”


“Afina was super accommodating and responsive. She took great care of my cat Beans who felt right at home in Afina’s apartment!!”


“I’m so happy to have found Jacob to care for my two dogs on short notice. Jacob made everything easy and stress free. I will definitely call on him again next time!”


“Doug and Debbie were incredible hosts for our dog, Stella, while our family was away for a week. Stella can be slow to warm up to new people, but thanks to their gentle care, she quickly felt at ease. We had a few unexpected flight cancellations, which required Stella to stay an extra day, and Doug and Debbie happily accommodated her without any issues. We're so grateful that Stella had a safe, loving place to stay, and she especially loved their beautiful backyard patio. Will definitely be re-booking for any other family vacation!”


“Another 5-star stay with Karin and Mackenzie. I know Sydney gets loads of love and attention with Mackenzie. I love getting the photos showing me how much fun she is having during her stay. Thank you. We will be back soon.”


“Donna was absolutely outstanding. Five stars aren't nearly enough to describe how absolutely pleased I am. Donna was the absolute next best thing to being there myself. I didn't have to spend even a second wondering how Iris was doing, as she kept me up to date with her walks, meals, and even trips to the park. (She even sent lovely photos of Iris snuggling under the covers!) You can tell Donna has had a ton of dog experience. Iris can be very slow to warm to folks and can be a bit nervous, but she instantly hit it off with Donna. This was my first time leaving Iris with someone other than family, and I truly can't thank Donna enough for putting any anxiousness at ease--Iris's or mine. ;) Thank you so, so, so much, Donna!”


About: I raised my own fur kiddo for 15 years until her passing in January. I can’t bring myself to adopt again just yet, but I also have so much love inside me for furry friends, and I deeply miss having one around! I have experience with a wide age range of pets, as well as medicine administration. Given the opportunity I would love to spoil and care for your loved one(s) 🐶🐱🐰🐹🩵 I am fully remote during the summer months and then work from home most days during the year, so I am very flexible to your needs! I keep a very clean, tidy and safe home! Since I WFH, I always have my phone on me and will respond to you in a timely manner. There are no children or other pets in my home. The neighborhood is beautiful to walk around for both pets and people alike!

“So many thanks to Patricia and her family for perfect taking care of my dog for 5 days! Rusty was so comfortable in their home and with their dogs that he ate perfectly (very unlike him) and played hard all day long. I think it was as much of a fun-filled vacation for him as it was for us. We will definitely be back!”


“I can't recommend Mario enough for anyone looking for a caring and reliable pet sitter! Mario watched my dog Dean for five days, and I couldn't be happier with the service he provided. He sent me daily pictures and videos of Dean, which really put my mind at ease while I was away. Mario made sure Dean received his medication on time and gave him plenty of love and attention. I could tell that Dean was in good hands the whole time. Thank you, Mario, for your excellent care and professionalism. I will definitely be reaching out to you again in the future!”


About: Hello! My name is Grace and I am a mom to 3 human kids ages 16, 15 & 11 and our beloved pup Leonardo Da Vizsla. I grew up with dogs and have owned my own dogs since the moment I was old enough. Snuggling a dog is what brings me peace and joy and between me, my kids and Leonardo, there is always someone to play with in this house. I work at the local junior high that is a 2 minute drive from the house and come home for lunch every day to let Leonardo out so the pups will never go too long without a bathroom break. We have a fenced in yard. Your pet will be loved and snuggled (if they desire that). We have multiple people in this house who will fight over letting them sleep in their bed if that is what your pup is used to.


“Janett did a wonderful job entertaining, walking and generally caring for Trudie for a week. Very grateful for quick responses and loads and lovely pictures!!”


“Miranda is awesome! I felt completely comfortable with her caring for my sweet older rescue dog who makes herself at home on couches and beds. She was prompt in her communication, sent great photos, and just had a great vibe. We will definitely rebook when we need another sitter. Thanks Miranda!”


“Jessie was calm and happy upon pickup. Brian took good care of him. This was our second time leaving Jessie with Brian and we would do it again.”


“She has been so wonderful! She sent me daily updates of my dog, and really went out of her way to care for him. Being away from your dog is anxiety provoking but knowing that he is being taken care of and is in good and honest company is heart soothing. I’ll surely consider her when I need to board my dog again.”

Melika S.
“Melika should strongly be considered and can be trusted to care for all your pet needs. Melika had cared for her Havanese, Effy, for 15 plus years until her recent passing. Melika had always treated her pup as if it were a child of her own. Providing tender love and care for her pup. Melika would provide Effy with nothing but the best to ensure a long and happy life whether it be dietary needs, care, grooming, or even clothing. When her pup got older and could no longer consume her food normally, Melika would be sure to do everything possible to ensure her pup was able to digest and consume her food comfortably. Often softening her pup's food for easy consumption. Effy would also get routine care and doctor visits to ensure she is in good health. Experts were often contacted, and second opinions were sought after if needed. When there were any sudden signs of discomfort or illness, Melika would be quick to bring her pup in for care. Effy was well trained and taught manners and good hygiene. Melika would clean her pup’s paws, face, and even her behind after long walks to ensure her pup was clean and her home remained clean. As much as she cared for her, her pup was there for her. Often providing her with emotional support and a long-term companion. The love they had for each other was very transparent as her pup would follow her everywhere she went. The two were inseparable. Effy was not her pup but her child and best friend. Please do not hesitate to reach out to me should you like to learn more about Melika’s pet care experience and why she would be a great sitter and caretaker for your furry friend.”
