Dog Boarding Shady Oak Farms

“We felt very comfortable leaving Bella and Monty with Jessica and Colin. Our dogs were happy to see us when we picked them up, but felt no need to leave immediately and went right back to laying down and playing with their toys. A sure sign they'd been well taken care of. Definitely recommend.”

“Athens and Richi were wonderful hosts for Puccini, Recording every moment of his play time with the other dogs. He was glad to see me, but I think he misses socializing with the other dogs! I will certainly recommend Athena and Richi to others in need of a long-term sitter. Peace for all animals! Brenda”

About: Hi! I’ve been caring for animals of all kinds since I was 11 years old, and they’ve always been a huge part of my life. I currently have a mini Goldendoodle, and my roommate has a medium Goldendoodle, so I’m very familiar with their energy, personalities, and daily care needs. I’m reliable, hardworking, and treat every pet as if they were my own. Whether your furry friend needs walks, playtime, cuddles, or attentive care while you’re away, I’d love the opportunity to help. My goal is to make sure both you and your pet feel comfortable, happy, and cared for every step of the way! I work fully from home with a flexible schedule, which allows me to give your pet the attention, care, and companionship they deserve throughout the day. Whether it’s frequent potty breaks, walks, playtime, or just having someone around to keep them company, I’m able to be attentive to their needs. I’ll make sure your furry friend feels safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. I have a fully fenced-in backyard where dogs can safely play, explore, and get some fresh air. I especially enjoy taking dogs on walks to help them get exercise. Every dog is different, so I’m happy to match their energy level and routine to make sure they feel comfortable, happy, and well cared for.

“We are repeat users. Heather was great with our 8 year old male maltese for two weeks. Our pup left happy and enjoyed his playmates and Heather's attention.”

About: I will always ask for a meet and great before committing to boarding or sitting. I want you to hear you concerns and needs and make sure we are a good fit. Your pet will get lots of cuddles, walks and playtime. I have open availability and will work with you to ensure that your loved one is cared for. If I am in your home I will follow the routine and rules you have in place for the well being of your pet. If I am onboarding your furry friend feeding/ potty and bed times will be adhered to.

“Jen was an absolute angel helping with Journey during a transportation hiccup and scheduling miscommunication between my trainer and me. I needed someone to bridge the gap between Journey being dropped off by her transporter and my trainer's daughter being available to receive her, and Jen stepped in without hesitation. Despite the uncertainty around the transport timing and ultimately an early 6:00 AM drop-off, she was communicative, flexible, and incredibly helpful throughout the entire process. She not only took wonderful care of Journey, but also coordinated the final handoff and personally dropped her off for me, making what could have been a very stressful situation feel seamless. She sent photo updates, kept me informed every step of the way, and treated Journey like one of her own. I truly can't thank her enough. If you're considering booking with Jen, I would do so without hesitation. She went above and beyond in every way. ★★★★★ Highly recommend!”

“Our cavapoo, Lexi, always has a great time with Bob and Marissa. They take wonderful care of her and give her attention and love. This is our second time leaving Lexi with them and we feel very comfortable. Last time we went out of the country for over two weeks and Lexi pretty much had her own vacation with Bob and Marissa too. We get several updates and pictures every day, which is fun to see.”
