Dog Boarding Northgate

“Amazing! I booked a last minute stay over Fourth of July weekend and Mana was so accommodating. She squeezed in a pre stay introduction for the dogs, then took amazing care of Obi over the three days. I got so many photos (and a video) and she even refilled my poop bag dispenser from her own stash when ours ran out and sent obi home with a little extra treat. Outstanding sitter, would book again without hesitation.”

“Alexa and her family were such great hosts and caretakers for our dog Bo - lovely to coordinate with and obviously provided a super good care. Could tell Bo was relaxed and happy from the regular photo/video updates. Will definitely try to rebook with Alexa again soon! 🐾 🦮❤️”

“Kelly & Karen were awesome! Kelly made sure to send daily photos & was very responsive overall. They were also flexible with pick up/ drop off times. Maggie enjoyed her stay!”

Gina M.

“Kathryn and Mark were awesome taking care of my Ruka. Very communicative and sent great pictures. Kathryn went above and beyond with my girl and I'm so thankful for them! Would board with them anytime!”

Margarita L.

“Nathan did a great job of taking care of my pup while she was recovering from an abscess giving her daily meds and gave me daily photo updates.”

“Philip was so good with our first doggy (1 yr old puppy) and his care was excellent with our second (3yr old choc lab). Steve had lovely park walks, mental stimulation and came back very happy doggie. Highly recommend!”

“Tootsie had a blast at Lorena’s! She was fortunate to have another boarded small dog to play with, and got to play chase in Lorena’s backyard any time she wanted (normally she only gets to do this at the dog park)! Lorena and her husband, like my daughter, allowed Tootsie to sleep in their bed, for which we were grateful, AND because they both work from home, Tootsie had company 24-7 (her dream come true, and something she does not even get at home)! Lorena is definitely our new go-to for boarding.”

About: Over the years, my husband and I have shared our lives with all kinds of dogs: farm dogs, little dogs, a Great Dane in a studio apartment, and now our Mini Australian Shepherd. We have learned and refined our dog ownership skills over time, finally investing in professional training for both our dog and ourselves in 2025. That experience shaped the kind of care I offer today. I believe dogs thrive with clear structure, consistency, and calm communication. I strive to provide the kind of boarding experience I wish I could find for my own dog, where training, routines, and boundaries are respected while you're away. I work from home full-time, so pet care fits naturally into my day. We have a large, fully fenced backyard, daily walks, and a very friendly Mini Australian Shepherd who enjoys canine company. Your dog won't be left alone for a typical workday. I do leave the house for school drop-offs and pick-ups, errands, or weekend activities. Dogs should be comfortable being alone for a few hours. Because I have both a young child and my own dog, I only accept dogs that: -Are friendly with children and other dogs. -Are up to date on vaccinations and flea prevention. -Can comfortably settle into a family home.

“Cathleen took excellent care of our dog. Pictures and updates multiple times a day. Excellent fast easy communication. Cathleen was also so helpful and flexible when our flight was delayed. Will use again!!”

“Eleanor was absolutely amazing with our pups while we were traveling internationally. She kept us at ease with consistent updates and lots of photos, which we really appreciated. It was clear they were in great hands the entire time. We’d highly recommend to anyone looking for a sitter!”

Sarah W.

“Margaret and Tony are excellent dog sitters. Sugar has stayed with them twice. She always has a great time and is a happy girl. Highly recommended!”

“Jiani provided attentive care for my cat while we were away for a week. My cat, Todie, stayed with Jiani at her place, and Todie is usually very shy and nervous in new places. With frequent photo updates from Jiani, I was able to tell that Todie grew comfortable in her care rather quickly, and it relieved much stress on my end. Jiani was very flexible with picking up Todie and dropping her back off, too, which made planning easy for me! I will absolutely rebook with Jiani in the future!”

“Isabella was so so great with our dog, Benji! She kept us updated on how he was each day and really went the extra mile with making sure Benji was comfortable. Really appreciate the great care and I wouldn’t think twice about leaving my dog with her again ! ❤️”

“This was our first time using Rover, so we were pretty nervous to leave our little 9 month old precious puppy with someone we didn't know. After looking at quite a few sitters, Michelle and Brian just felt right! As soon as we met them, we knew we had the right people! Our puppy, Oakley, was immediately comfortable and feeling right at home. There were absolutely no hesitations, this was the place! They were so nice to send pictures along the way that showed how much fun Oakley was having with their puppy and how relaxed he was. It was very comforting to know he was in such good hands. We are thrilled to know the next time we go out of town, Oakley will have his own vacation. I know he can hardly wait to play with his new best friend! Do not hesitate. Michelle and Brian are perfect puppy sitters!”

Lisa B.

“Michelle was awesome and Dottie dog had a great time! Michelle gave lots of photos, videos, updates, love, and care. Dottie would love to stay again!”

Emily W.

“Jessica was the perfect pup sitter for our little Carl! We received frequent updates and beautiful photos each day. Communication was quick, clear and timely, and pickup and drop off was super easy. We were so happy knowing Carl was having such a relaxing and enjoyable time with Jessica and we would highly recommend!”

“Chris and Kim are awesome dog sitters, we have really enjoyed having a chill, reliable and safe place for our pup to stay while we are out of town. Keelah loves snuggling with them on the couch and herding their cats. Chris and Kim are great at getting back to us quickly and sending photos while Keelah is staying with them. We will keep boarding with them!”

Erik M.

“Fantastic! Lauren and Ryan cared for our dogs like they were one of their own. The dogs had so much fun they didn't want to go home. Lauren provided lots of pictures and updates every day. I liked that our dogs were able to socialize with their dogs in a big backyard. Our dogs settled right in with Lauren and Ryan after a long day of play and fun.”

Anne K.

“Yer was fantastic with our rescue dog, Kiki! Kiki can be shy / mopey when we go out of town but she warmed up to Yer immediately. She was very responsive and communicative throughout the stay. Would definitely recommend Yer and look forward to working with her in the future!”

Samantha K.

“Quanying was the best Dog Sitter! She sent tons of pictures without me asking and obviously has a big heart I’d love for my pup. I’m 100% confident leaving him in her hands while I’m away and that is all I could hope for!”
