Dog Boarding Shady Dale

“Henry was calm and settled when we got him back home which tells us he had a good experience. Appreciated Michelle’s feedback about Henry as well as something we can work on”

“Catecha exceeded all expectations. Her deep expertise and technical skill were immediately apparent; she had George in a disciplined yet calm state from the very start. Knowing he was in such capable and compassionate hands allowed me to enjoy my time away with complete peace of mind. I feel incredibly fortunate to have found a professional of her caliber.”

Shirley G.

“We are always completely comfortable leaving Bella with James. We know she will be spoiled and taken care of just like she is at home. Pictures and updates make leaving her a little easier and she always looks content.”

Kathy P.

“Oh my goodness! Where do I start? Madison is such a Godsend. She sent me tons of pictures and kept me in the loop of how my baby was doing. She made her so comfortable to where she felt right at home. My dog warmed up to her pretty quickly. I had some issues with my pick up date and she was very accommodating! Her home is very welcoming and her backyard space is perfect for large dogs, I couldn’t be more grateful for her, I’m DEFINITELY going to book with her again and everyone else should as well.”

Bria D.

“Samantha was AMAZING for our dogs. We have a puppy and we’re very nervous about leaving him, and our Boston needs his own emotional support human so it was not ideal to leave him either…. They were both so well taken care of and we appreciate the love she gave our boys while they stayed with her!”

“Pamela provides daily pictures and sometimes cute videos, too! She provides top notch care and keeps us pet parents informed. We really hope she'll watch our Molly Girl again! Molly bragged about Pamela for a LONG time!! 😉”

“Tanya is awesome she is patient living and caring for Sayon she took good care of him she is lije family I felt confident that Sayon was in good care. I have found a second home for my baby when I travel out of town Tanya kept me posted everyday sending pictures letting me know he was okay”

“We were nervous to leave our 6 month old pup for the first time but Andrea was absolutely amazing! She gave him plenty of snuggles and sent us pictures and videos throughout his stay. We will definitely be booking with her again in the future.”

Megan C.

“This was our first time using a sitter because we didn't like the kennel accommodations and the fact that our baby would be left alone after closing. We decided to research home sitters. we chose Rover and Denise because she lives close to our home, had a fence and allowed our dog the chance to socialize. At the meet and greet it was an instant connection. During his stay, she kept us posted on his activities, including pictures. He made new friends as well as a love connection! He had a great time, was happy and seemed like he didn't want to leave. We will definitely be using her services again. Thank you so much Rover and especially Denise.”

Debra/gwendolyn B.

“Sosa and Kesha have found a a second home with Mayra & Jonathan. We are thankful to have found them when we did and look forward to using them again. They were extremely friendly and made my dogs feel at home away from ours.”

ALEXIA W.

“Goldie offered to do things don't think a lot of other sitters would do. She worked with me during a hectic time preparing to leave the state for my birthday trip. Mylo was just as happy and alert returning as he was when he left. Thanks Goldie!”

Sumyr B.

“Tom and Nikki do a wonderful job of making sure my pup feels at home! They check-in and send regular updates so I know my pup is having a great time, they have a fenced yard for him to enjoy, and they give him all the belly rubs! When he stays with them it truly is his home away from home.”

With me, you’ll have peace of mind knowing your furry family members are in compassionate, capable hands. I’m currently not working so just trying to keep myself busy while helping others with their busy schedules, I love all animals and I look forward to helping anybody out. I’m free basically every day, I go to the gym and that’s about it for now, please contact me for further details! I have a fence built, I have three cats and a dog but right now I’m not looking to host any dogs, just dog sitting or walking

“Stacia was a great babysitter for Harley. He was well taken care of. I received 2 pictures of my baby while away. She took him out for walks and play time. I will definitely book again.”

I make sure that the animals in my care are always cared for to the best of my ability. Safety and comfort are my top priorities.

“We love Mary Kate! Our dog walks right into her house without looking back at us when we drop him off. Honestly, if she was unavailable we’d change our plans to a date she could take him. It’s the most comfortable we’ve ever been leaving our dog.”

About: Hi, my name is Ashley, and I am a middle school educator. Outside of teaching and working with students, I have a huge love for dogs. I have three family dogs, two girls and one boy, and I truly enjoy each of their unique personalities. Funny enough, my boy dog’s birthday is the day before mine, so I always joke that we have the same personality! I have always been the type of person who instantly notices dogs wherever I go. Whether I’m walking around town or traveling on vacation, I’m usually the one saying, “Oh my gosh, look at that dog! I want to go pet them!” I even find myself feeling emotional when I see stray dogs because I wish every dog had a loving home. Animals bring so much joy, and being around dogs has always been something that makes me genuinely happy. I am currently a school teacher, so during summer break I have open availability and more flexibility to provide pet care throughout the day. Once the school year begins, my availability will mainly be during evenings throughout the week and on weekends. When caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, my goal is to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I understand that every pet has their own routine and personality, so I do my best to follow the care instructions provided by their owner. Pet care for me includes making sure they receive their meals on time, have fresh water, go on their daily walks or potty breaks, and get plenty of attention. I also love spending time playing, cuddling, and giving them affection so they feel cared for while their family is away.

About: I have 2 dogs that are very active in dog sports. I also volunteer with a rescue organization to evaluate, foster, transport and re-home dogs. Morning and afternoon play or training sessions based on each dog's individual requirements. I do work during the week but am able to check in on dogs mid-day as needed. Room to run and explore. Lake is available for all those water dogs to go swimming. Dog's will be kept separate from resident dogs until properly introduced.
