Dog Boarding Southwest

“My dog recently stayed two nights with Dawn in her home. Dawn took her on walks and made sure she had plenty of playtime and I could tell she really cared about making her comfortable. I would highly recommend Dawn and will be reusing her in the future.”

“Marena was a fantastic sitter for my dog Max! She gave me frequent updates and had no issues with the provided instructions for his care. Marena took such great care of Max, I don’t think he wanted to leave when we picked him up :) I will definitely have her watch Max again in the future.”

“Lauren looked after my baby while I was out of town, I was nervous because it was his first time spending the night away from me, but it’s safe to say that he had the time of his life! He was able to socialize with other dogs which was definitely a plus for me, she was also super sweet and professional. So happy to have found her ❤️”

“Wonder with our needy and at times difficult dogs. This was our first big trip leaving our 2 dogs with someone other then close friends and we were very pleased with how they were cared for.”

“Emily consistently goes above and beyond when caring for our pup - we trust & highly recommend her! She communicates exceptionally well, provides plenty of exercise & enrichment, and even managed to convince our dog to eat while boarding at her home (not an easy task). Emily and Kove create a welcoming & calming environment - our dog always comes home happy, healthy, and tired from all the fun!”

“Michelle took care of my 2 senior dogs. She is an amazing sitter, very communicative and I received updates about my pets frequently. If you are looking for a sitter to care for your pet as their own, Michelle is the one. I highly recommend her and will be booking with her again!”

“First time using rover or any boarding service. I started looking on Rover for a last minute sitter had an emergency. Here I got the care fory dog planned out quickly. Hasber is friendly, good with animals, and regular communication for duration of pet stay. The environment was friendly and spacious for Exercise. I got photos of my pet and updates on my pet's day. I felt comfortable leaving my pet, and he was happy when I came to pick him up.”

“So thankful to Dawn and Spike for looking after my Stanley this past weekend. I felt confident leaving him with her and he seems to have really enjoyed himself and gotten good and spoiled with snuggles. Highly recommend.”

“Katie (and Ruth!) are amazing! Our shy girl had never been boarded before, and we hit the lottery with finding Katie. She was patient with letting Parsley get to know her, and didn't try to force anything. Parsley and Ruth started playing and chasing each other right away - it was awesome to see our usually shy and anxious girl come out of her shell so quickly. We were updated frequently with plenty of pictures. We could tell that Parsley was having an absolute blast - which was confirmed when I went to pick her up and she didn't want to leave. We will absolutely be booking with Katie again.”

“Stockton had such a great time with Maolin, and he has major separation issues. She made him feel comfortable instantly and took him on a lot of awesome adventures! Would definitely book again!”

“Mary was very friendly and loves all animals. She sent daily updates and included pictures. Thanks for taking such great care of our dog!! Would definitely recommend!”

“Alexandria was really wonderful with my dog Henry! She was great at communicating both before and during my dog's stay. Henry seemed to have a great time and got along well with her sweet dogs!”

Emily A.

“10/10 would recommend Sydney. She was great with my pups. Send daily pictures and videos. 10/10 would also recommend Sydney’s dog Honey. She was amazing. I’m sure Max misses her. Overall a great experience.”

About: I've been a dog person for as long as I can remember, with over 13 years of hands-on experience covering walks, cuddles, vet visits, and everything in between. I recently lost my beloved pup to cancer, so I know firsthand what it means to love a dog deeply and care for them through every stage of life. I'm experienced with senior dogs and administering medication, and welcome large breeds . My partner Max is also home to help, so your pup is always in good hands. I only host one household at a time and am committed to giving your dog my full attention. Right now we have a pet-free home and will give your pup gets all of our attention. Your dog will be treated like a member of the family from the moment they arrive. Fri-Mon there is someone home at all times, so potty breaks can be kept to whatever schedule your dog requires. We don't often host midweek, but if we do, Tue-Thu we are able to limit alone time to approximately 4-5 hrs. I have a securely fenced yard for outdoor play and potty breaks, and will be present with you dog as long as they are outside (no leaving them alone despite the fence). Dogs are allowed on the furniture and in the bed. I'll stick to whatever routine works best for your pet, including feeding schedules, medication, and any special needs. I'm experienced with senior dogs and large breeds, and I'm happy to share regular updates and photos so you always know how your pup is doing.

“Our Goldendoodle Posey is a “spicy girl” and we couldn’t just leave her with anyone. Karla was our trainer at Take The Lead Dog Training and we were so impressed with her skills at helping to train our strong willed and somewhat naughty girl. I was able to enjoy my vacation and not worry about Posey because I knew she was in good hands. Posey got the chance to get some socialization with other dogs which she needed. I will definitely use Karla again.”

“We had a wonderful experience booking with Lizmarie. She invited us to do a meet and greet before the official booking to ensure our dogs got along with her children. She updated us with photos whenever we asked. It is obvious she has a lot of experience with dogs and she genuinely cares for them. I would definitely want to book with her again and would recommend her to any of my fellow pawrents!”

“Megan was fantastic with our doodle, Luna. She was attentive, kept us updated with photos and videos throughout the stay, and made sure Luna was happy and comfortable. We could tell Luna enjoyed her time with her. Highly recommend Megan!”

“John and Shannon took amazing care of our lab. They sent photos/ videos daily of Maggie, playing outside, going on walks, and relaxing in the house. We felt so comfortable and are excited for Maggie to have such a great place to stay in the future!”

“Tamisha is absolutely the best! She takes great care of my boys. They always come back happy and healthy, and she sends plenty of pictures. Very responsive and accommodating. Highly highly recommend!”
