Dog Boarding Northwood Heights

“Dusty get's excited when he sees me loading the truck to take him to Brandi's. He comes back exhausted from playing with his buddies. I can travel and not worry about him.”

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.

“David was wonderful with our puppy! The 38-acre property was the perfect setup for our high-energy dog to run, explore, and get plenty of exercise. David was attentive, responsive, and clearly took great care of her. We especially appreciated the photos and videos he sent throughout her stay. It gave us such peace of mind knowing she was happy and having a great time. We would absolutely recommend David and will happily have our puppy stay with him again!”

“Arianna took care of our senior pug. She was very kind to him and considerate of his needs (for example not walking in the heat). She provided a lot of updates and photos as well. Will definitely book with her again.”

“Heather was fantastic with my furry baby. I got daily updates and pictures and she even had an extra security vest for him during July 4th fireworks. Highly recommend.”

“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 :)”

About: I've owned my own dog walking and boarding business for 8 years, have worked with dogs full time for 10 and have chosen to work and volunteer alongside animals from the moment I had the opportunity as a young teen. It is important to me that the dogs in my care are fulfilled. All dogs are taken on daily walks and provided with off leash social time in my yard. I am behavior savvy, cultivate structure through routine and boundary setting, and love to let dogs' personalities shine. My partner and I have a 6 month old mini Aussie, Otis, and he loves to host as well. I require that dogs are friendly with other dogs, crate trained and have leash manners. My "full-time" work is to provide for the dogs in my care- whether they are boarding, daycare dogs, or walking clients. This includes daily (and sometimes twice daily) group walks and off leash social time with my personal dog and whomever else is on the schedule. Sometimes we hike, explore a separate large fenced property or visit the beach-it all depends on how many dogs I have and what their temperaments are. I take relationship building with my clients (both human and dog) very seriously. It takes time to build comfort and trust. I prefer to have a short client list, an intimate group of dogs, and a relaxed and familiar flow throughout our day to day. I love to have extended stay boarding dogs, and have several clients who travel multiple months out of the year. I do not take one-time weekend boarding dogs. It is a lot of work up front to get new clients familiarized with our routine, comfortable & relaxed in the environment, and introduced to all of the regulars. A final note: I love shy/awkward dogs, senior dogs, and working with (most) young puppies. I struggle with highly anxious & hyperactive dogs and they are not the best fit for my environment and personality.

“Ying was amazing with my two dogs, making them feel welcome and peaceful with her warmth and calm sense of relaxed control. I highly recommend her.”

“Merrill took exceptional care of my pup! She was a great communicator and sent photos throughout my dog’s stay. Pepper had the best weekend with her new friend!”

Lauren K.

“Sheila was incredibly kind and flexible. Her home was a place filled with a lot of warmth and love! She was always super prompt when replying to me and sent me many photos of my dog while she was staying there. I will 100% book with Sheila again. Thank you!!!”

“Deborah did an excellent job of watching my fur baby, Chico. Being that he is elderly and usually only watched by family members, I was a little nervous. Deborah put me at ease and provided video updates throughout Chico’s stay. I would absolutely recommend her.”

“Second time I booked with Lindsey and couldn't of had a better experience for not only my pup, but also myself. Lindsey was attentive, patient, and communicative throughout the 4 day boarding I booked with her. It gives me such peace of mind knowing that my dog will be well cared for and pampered when I am away! Thank you!”

Cameron M.

“Stacie was so communicative, friendly, and understanding. She sent me pictures daily of my girl, and was so kind in all of her messages. Her family is incredibly loving. I can’t wait for her to watch my girl again in the future because I know that she’s in capable and safe hands!”

About: I’m a dog person and am experienced with all kinds of dogs in all phases of life! Exercise, stability and love seems to be golden. I aim to keep a pet’s home routine for feeding and walks that they are used to. I’m consistent with feeding, meds and all specific instructions. I’m working from home these days and can give your pet the care it needs. I never want an animal to suffer with a full bladder or no fresh water. I also am big on exercise for dogs. I am in Sebastopol where we take advantage of all parks, walks and wonderful outdoor opportunities. My older gentle female dog can keep your pet company. I am also able to crate dogs if desired.

“Gabriel & Laura took such great care of our dogs, Kylo & Cocoa! They were very attentive and sent us updates throughout the dogs’ stay, so we got to enjoy our weekend knowing that our dogs were cared for by this amazing family. Highly recommend and will definitely have them look after the dogs again when we’re in the area!”

“Steven was so kind and helpful. I had never used Rover before and I feel I was blessed to find him. He sent pictures anytime I checked in and clearly took great care of my dog Lewis. Perfect location for if you use the airport bus service. Got off the bus and picked my pup up in 10 minutes.”

Gretchen P.

“My dog Beau had a great time staying with Jill. She is very warm and loving and took great care of my beloved fur baby. I loved receiving photos during his stay and they have a super safe setup. I could tell Beau was super happy being there which means a lot when you’re away. Would definitely book again!”

Amber J.

“Charmaine did a great job boarding our fur baby. She was very anxious about being away from home for a few nights. Charmaine even let her sleep with her and shared pics. Very sweet and caring.”

Michelle S.

“Ari is compassionate and all about the care and safety of my dog. I had no worries regarding the 2 night stay knowing my dog was in capable hands. Thank you Ari.”
