Dog Boarding Preston

About: Ive been caring for dogs and cats since I was about 8 years old. I’ve always had multiple dogs in the house at a time. I’ve cared for dogs ranging from big to small, Seniors to puppies. I provide daily photos throughout your pets daily routine and tons of love I’m currently working part time so I will have plenty of enough time to care for your fur baby. I believe all animals should be treated like they are you own even if they are temporary I live in a quiet cozy apartment with a big yard in the back. There is plenty of room for playtime and resting. Pets are welcome on all furniture

“Great dog sitter and took wonderful care of my pups Moe and Bear. She worked so hard and even went above and beyond writing down the medication schedule for our pups!!! Thank you so much Johanna!!”

“We were very happy with Indy’s care! We felt very at ease on vacation and really appreciated the picture updates. Will definitely book again!”

Kayla O.

“Morgan truly enjoyed my babies and took amazing care of them! I’d book her again any time!”

Johanna D.

“So it was last minute; however, Lauren opened her door for me and took care of my Cayo! She was very caring and fun for Cayo. Cayo got along greatly with Lauren’s dogs and children. Cayo got plenty of playing time as well, which I’m thankful that I got many photos of! I highly recommend Lauren to provide care for your puppies as well, because I know I will be returning for her services!!! Thanks Lauren! ~ Matt & Cayo Hughes”

“Chloe took great care of our dog, Zelda, who had an injured knee and had to take it easy. Chloe sent us a midday update (pup cup, stuffie & some liesure time outside - Z seemed happy as a clam) and was very responsive. We'd definitely trust Chloe to watch our girl again!”

Lauren B.

“Jeren was able to watch our new pup on short notice and did a great job. She sent daily pictures and descriptive updates. Our pup looked like she had a blast! Additionally, Jeren had no issues giving ear meds and was patient with our pup's shy nature. When we need a petsitter again, we'll be contacting Jeren first!”

About: I will love and care for your pet as if it were my very own Grand-puppy. Like my Charlie. Charlie is my daughters dog who reminded me that I loved dogs. I am looking forward to building my business in a career that I love so I can retire from my current job but still have work I look forward to doing. I will treat your pet as part of my family. I have a Grand-puppy named Charlie who came into my life and reminded me I loved dogs.

“Christina was awesome!! Super great with my maple & made it a friendly experience! I’d definitely recommend booking with her!!”

Autumn B.

“They were absolutely amazing with Nellie. We couldn't of have had a better experience. Nellie enjoyed her time with them and they treated her very well. It was our first time leaving Nellie with anyone and the random updates on her with pictures and videos helped ease our minds during our time away. We would definitely recommend them to anyone who is looking for pet care/boarding.”

Stephen A.

“Carmel is great. Would highly recommend. I received pictures and updates as well as I know my dog felt at home which is a great way to be while I was away.”

About: I’ve grown up around dogs and my family currently has four, so I’ve had lots of hands-on experience caring for them over the years. I’m a huge animal lover and I’m comfortable with feeding, walking, playtime, potty breaks, and giving dogs plenty of attention and affection. I understand that every dog has their own personality and routine, and I’ll always follow your instructions carefully and treat your pet with the same care I give my family’s dogs. I’m a college student with a flexible schedule, and I’m happy to make time for pet care around my classes and other commitments. I’m available for walks, drop-in visits, feeding, playtime, and plenty of attention. I’ll always communicate clearly about my availability and make sure your pet gets the care and time they need. I will always treat your pet and home with care and respect. I’m comfortable following specific feeding, walking, crate, and daily routine instructions, and I’ll make sure doors, gates, and leashes are secure at all times. I’ll give your pet plenty of attention and can also send updates and photos so you know they’re safe and happy while you’re away.

About: I’ve lived with dogs and cats my entire life and have over 15 years of hands-on experience caring for pets. Growing up, my mom had five dogs—some of which had puppies—and I helped raise and care for them. I’ve also cared for cats in multi-pet households, including feeding, litter box maintenance, and creating calm, safe environments for shy or senior cats. Neighbors, friends, and family have trusted me for years to walk, feed, bathe, and care for their pets while they’re away. I now have a black Yorkie of my own, and I treat every animal I care for like part of the family—whether they bark or purr! I currently work part time- and have lots of free time! I will send out a daily schedule of what I’ll be doing with the pets! I will take your dog out on walks on our neighborhood trail outside! I also have a few ring cameras, and will send a lot of pictures/videos throughout the day.

About: For me, pet care has never been just a job—it's been a lifelong passion. I was raised in a family of professional trainers and boarders, where I learned from an early age how to properly care for dogs of all ages, temperaments, and needs. We also spent countless hours working alongside local shelters, helping dogs build confidence and prepare for their forever homes. Professionally, I have over 20 years of experience working in boarding, training assistance, behavioral rehabilitation, and pet care. In 2012, I began my career as a professional dog groomer and later became certified to groom both dogs and cats. In 2020, I became certified to train new groomers as they worked toward their professional certifications. Today, I combine all of that experience to provide a calm, loving, and individualized experience for every pet in my care. My Specialties I specialize in creating fear-free, low-stress experiences built on patience, trust, and compassion. Some of my areas of expertise include: • Fear-free handling and grooming • Trauma rehabilitation grooming for pets who cannot safely visit traditional salons due to fear, anxiety, or behavioral concerns • Senior pet care • Puppy care and socialization • Pets with medical or mobility challenges • Basic training and reinforcement of good manners • Administering medications while carefully monitoring for symptoms or side effects One of my greatest passions is helping fearful dogs learn that grooming and handling don't have to be scary. Rather than forcing pets through services, I work at their pace, building trust over time with the goal of helping them become comfortable and confident again. Many of my clients come to me after being turned away from traditional grooming salons due to behavioral or medical concerns. What Your Pet Can Expect I strive to make every stay feel like a vacation with family rather than simply boarding. Your pet may enjoy: • Daily walks (typically 2-4 per day, while following your normal routine whenever possible) • Plenty of one-on-one attention and affection • Playtime, enrichment, and exercise • Trips to the dog park (with your permission and only if appropriate for your pet) • Picture, video, and message updates throughout their stay • A calm, loving home environment where they are treated like family One unique tradition many pets come to love is bedtime story time. It may sound unusual, but quietly reading aloud has helped many anxious dogs relax before bed. I've even seen it help dogs experiencing storm anxiety or fear of loud noises settle more comfortably. Routine is incredibly important to me. If your pet has a specific schedule, feeding routine, medication plan, or bedtime ritual, I'll do everything possible to maintain it while they're in my care. Because of my experience working with behavioral and medical cases, I also pay close attention to subtle changes in your pet's behavior, mobility, appetite, and overall well-being. If I notice anything concerning, I'll communicate with you immediately and act quickly in your pet's best interest. Communication & Grooming I believe communication is one of the most important parts of pet care. The more I know about your pet's personality, routines, preferences, and medical history, the better experience I can provide. In return, you'll receive detailed updates about how they're doing, including behavior, activities, and anything I notice that may be helpful for you to know. During boarding or daycare stays, I'm also happy to reinforce basic training and offer guidance on grooming maintenance, body language, and behavioral changes that may strengthen your bond with your pet at home. Professional grooming services are available for pets staying in my care. Grooming recommendations, pricing, and service completion depend on your pet's size, coat condition, medical needs, and stress level. My philosophy is simple: I will never force a pet through a service. Their comfort, trust, and emotional well-being always come first. Booking Information To help protect my home while still providing every pet with the highest level of care, the estimated price for boarding and daycare includes a refundable cleaning/security fee. This fee is fully refunded after your pet's stay provided there is no excessive damage or extraordinary cleaning required beyond normal pet messes. I believe this allows me to continue offering a clean, safe, and comfortable environment for every guest while being fair to both pet parents and my home. My goal is simple: every pet should leave my care feeling safe, loved, understood, and excited to come back. I am generally home all day. I do work as a groomer for pets that are unable to got to salons, but I do this from home as well. So your pets will have round the clock love and care. You will need to provide any food and specific treats if your pet has a favorite or dietary restrictions/allergies. Pets are family. I will personally take them for walks throughout the day for fresh air and exercise, play with them and ensure they feel comfortable and lived while you are away. I do offer creating services, however, depending on the size of your dog, you may have to supply the crate. You pet will always be treated like family, but the details of their routine and activities will depend on your instructions. I respect that different lifestyles require different things (i.e crating vs free roam, scheduled feeding vs grazing, scheduled walks/potty breaks vs whenever they want to go out, etc.) and will maintain that sense of normalcy as much as possible. If you opt for grooming, and I am able to comfortably groom your dog, grooming will take place 1-2 days before your return. That way they have time to decompress after, and if they are stressed for parts, it gives leeway to do little bits over time.

About: I have a genuine love for animals and take pride in providing dependable, compassionate, and personalized care for every pet I look after. I understand that every pet has different personalities, routines, and needs, and I take the time to make each one feel comfortable, safe, and loved. What sets me apart is that I treat your pets like family. I’m dependable, communicative, detail-oriented, and committed to following your instructions and maintaining your pet’s normal routine while you’re away. Whether it’s playtime, walks, feeding, medications, or simply providing companionship, I want you and your pets to feel completely comfortable and confident in my care. Pet care fits easily into my daily and weekly routine. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate time to walks, feedings, playtime, and companionship. I enjoy incorporating pet care into my day and making sure each pet receives the attention and care they need. I’m reliable and organized, and I’m comfortable adjusting my routine to accommodate a pet’s individual schedule and needs. I care for pets with patience, compassion, and attention to their individual needs. In a client’s home, I follow their normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding, walks, playtime, medications if needed, and plenty of love and companionship. I also respect the home by keeping things clean and providing regular updates and photos so owners know their pets are happy and well cared for. My goal is to make pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away.

“Jason and Tracy were wonderful. Our dog is a rescue and has some anxiety issues. They understood and were so patient with her. They also sent me pictures every day. I knew that she was completely safe and happy while we were away. Thanks to both of you!!”
