Dog Boarding In Ruskin Hills

“Cassie and Ben and their kids are the best! I know Berkley is loved and well cared for while I'm away, and I can't say enough good things about them!!!”

“Olga is such a kind person and it is very clear how nice she loves and cares for dogs. I was anxious about leaving my pup because it was our first time apart. I got so many updates, my mind was put to ease right away! Highly recommend. I am absolutely going to use Olga in the future!”

Emma G.

“Dexter and Eddy had one of the most wonderful stay. They came home happy, tired, and clearly well-loved. The sweetest touch? They gave both pups a puppy cup and even sang "Happy Birthday" to Dexter for his special day! 🎂 It meant the world to see how much they cared. Both boys were all tail wags and smiles the entire time. Thank you again for making Dexter’s birthday so memorable and for taking such great care of our boys.”

Sherry Y.

“Derrika was absolutely phenomenal with Baker!!! She went above and beyond, truly treating him like family. She’s so genuine, caring, and attentive. It gave me such peace of mind knowing he was not only safe but truly LOVED. I can’t recommend her enough!!!”

“Our dog Ace had an amazing stay and was clearly a happy boy in the pictures/updates we received during our stay. Ryan took great care of him and would recommend him to anyone looking for a dog sitter.”

Vincent V.

“I had never boarded my dog before, and Saige made the process seamless. I had many questions and had to change a few timelines at last minute and she was very patient with me! My Great Pyrenees chewed a little sore on her paw and Saige tended to it which I very much appreciated. I enjoyed getting and reports of how Willow was doing. I will use Saige again! Thank you!”

Theresa H.

“Elaine was a great caregiver. It can take time to understand our dog; he warms up to people more slowly. She handled him beautifully. He settled in, was happy and loved.”

Jill E.

“Chantelle is such a wonderful person to talk to and my two cats, Katniss and Momo loved their stay when i had to leave town suddenly. Thank you for your amazing care and service!!”

Moustapha T.

“Bridget did an excellent job taking care of our pups. She had great communication with us and updated with pictures daily. Loved how she already had the kennels so we didn’t need to bring ours. Big back yard, smaller dog environment, and great area.”

About: After years of specialized transport with Mother Nature's Express, I am bringing that same USDA-certified level of safety and care to Mother Nature’s Boarding—a dedicated sanctuary for your furbabies. Professional Pedigree & Expert Care: ​I am not just a pet lover; I am a career animal professional with a decade of high-stakes experience. My background as a retired USDA-certified animal transporter means I have spent years safely navigating the logistics of animal behavior and safety across the country. I’ve handled animals of all temperaments and sizes, ensuring their health and security while traveling state-to-state and staying in pet-friendly luxury environments. ​Your furbaby's safety is my absolute priority. I am Red Cross Animal CPR certified, and my home is run with the precision and cleanliness of a professional facility, but with the heart of a dedicated stay-at-home parent. ​The Boutique Environment: ​Because I am home 24/7, your dog receives constant companionship and expert monitoring. My specialized setup includes: ​A dedicated "Guest Suite" located upstairs with me, completely separate from my personal pets to ensure a zero-stress transition. ​Safety-First Rotations: Utilizing my professional handling skills to manage pack dynamics, ensuring every guest feels like the "only" dog in the room. ​Expert Medical Oversight: Comfortable and experienced in administering medications and managing strict health protocols. A Lifetime of Devotion: ​My life has been defined by the bond between humans and animals. While I have over 12 years of adult experience managing my own multi-pet household—including dogs and cats—my journey actually began 25 years ago when I welcomed my first cat at age four, followed by a trio of small-breed dogs just two years later. I grew up learning the unique nuances of small-breed personalities, which is why I now specialize in providing a "big-dog-free" sanctuary for your little ones. As a career animal professional, pet care isn't just a part of my routine—it's the center of it. My schedule is designed to provide 24/7 supervision and companionship for my guest dogs. Because I am home full-time, I can maintain strict, consistent schedules for feeding, potty breaks, and medications that mimic your furbaby's home environment perfectly. ​My week is built around 'Restful Rotations.' While my mornings and evenings are for structured care, the daytime is filled with enrichment and one-on-one attention in our dedicated upstairs boutique area. This setup allows me to give your pet the high-touch care they deserve without the chaos of a traditional kennel. I care for every guest with the same expert precision I used as a USDA-certified animal transporter. My home's layout has been designed for maximum safety: all guest dogs enjoy the entire main/upstairs floor as their private 'boutique' sanctuary, completely separate from my personal pets who reside in their own personal basement suite while guests are here. ​Safety is my absolute priority. I utilize: ​Rotation-Based Exercise: I rotate my own dogs before guests enter the fully fenced backyard, ensuring a stress-free environment. ​The Double-Leash Rule: For front-yard strolls, I strictly follow the USDA safety standard of two points of contact (harness and collar) to ensure your pet is 100% secure at all times. ​Crated Security: To prevent nighttime scuffles and ensure a restful sleep, all guests sleep in their own individual, cozy crates with fresh water and orthopedic bedding. (The same protocol follows for feeding times to ensure absolute safety while eating) ​Medical Peace of Mind: Being certified in Animal CPR, I am highly experienced in monitoring health and administering specialized care.

“Abigail was so wonderful to us and our pups. She kept us updated and sent a lot of pictures. She has a wonderful playful poodle that got along with our dogs great and they came home nice and tired! Highly recommend!”

“Ms. Lauren is so amazing. Professional is not enough of an amazing word to describe her love, care, and understanding. I felt that my sweet Merlin was cared for and loved beyond measure. I can’t wait to book her again!!”

Morgana W.

“Brenda was great!! She was very nice and caring and made Dugan feel right at home. She texted a picture soon after we dropped him off to let us know he was settling right in. She also sent us another picture the next day of him cuddled up on the couch with her pug asleep. She said she let him sleep with her in bed at night. She was very flexible with drop off and pick up times to make it convenient for us. We have found a great sitter with no worries. We would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a caring sitter that makes your pet's stay away from home comforting and stress free. 5 stars!!”
