Dog Boarding in Starlight, IN

“Missy was a life saver! I was on a trip home while my husband was working late when we got a call from the extended stay hotel about my pups that needed attention quickly. Daisy can be hard to handle during thunderstorms and with strangers, but Missy was able to calm her enough to get her to her house and keep her for the rest of my trip. This is quite the feat considering we'd only left the pups with Missy once before. I can't recommend her enough!”

“Ebony and her family took great care of Magnolia. We had a long trip and were happy to have her staying with someone who was loving on her as much they did.”

“Elizabeth & Philip took care of our Lexi like she was one of their own. It was our first time leaving our dog under someone else’s care. They gave us peace of mind and updates on her care. We really appreciated it. They will always be our first choice in the future. Highly recommend!!!”

“Beth took wonderful care of our dogs while we were out of town. She sent pictures daily and anecdotal notes to us. We knew they were in good care and didn’t have to worry one bit!! We will definitely contact her again if we need someone to watch them while we’re out of town! ❤️❤️❤️”

“Stephen and Angela are absolutely great! Watched our pups during our wedding weekend and was at total ease. I was sent pictures of them everyday along with a reassuring message. Thank y’all so much!”

Briley B.

“She took on my old pup for a 10 day stay with no issues. When our planes got cancelled and then delayed she extended the stay with no issue which gave us one last thing to worry about. So glad to have someone that was sweet with my pup.”

About: I’ve been a dog owner most of my life and truly understand how much pets are part of the family. Over the years, I’ve cared for dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities—both my own and those of friends and family. I’ve provided overnight care as well as extended daytime stays, and I’m comfortable with feeding routines, walks, playtime, and giving pets the attention they need to feel safe and happy. I know how important it is to have someone you trust watching your pet, so I treat every dog like my own—with patience, consistency, and lots of love. I’m reliable, communicative, and happy to follow any specific instructions to keep your dog comfortable and on their normal routine. When caring for dogs, I focus on consistency and comfort. Before the stay, I like to learn your dog’s daily schedule—feeding times, walk routines, favorite activities, and any special needs. During their stay, I stick as closely as possible to that routine so they feel secure and less stressed. I also take time to get to know each dog’s personality and energy level, whether they love to play or prefer a quieter environment. You can expect regular communication and updates so you feel confident your dog is in good hands. Safety and trust are extremely important to me when caring for your pet. My home provides a clean, calm, and pet-friendly environment where dogs can feel comfortable and secure. I have a fully fenced-in yard for safe outdoor play and potty breaks, and I always supervise dogs while they’re outside. I’m careful about doors, gates, and interactions to ensure your pet stays safe at all times. I’m also happy to follow any specific instructions you have to maintain your dog’s routine and comfort. You can count on updates so you feel confident while you’re away.

“It was a great experience dealing with Penny. She sent many pictures and comments that reassured us that Roscoe was well taken care of. Our vacation could be without worry.”

“First time using Tayla. She was quick to respond to my request. Even though I only left my dog for one night, I appreciate that she sent several pics and updates. He must have had fun because he has been asleep since we got home. I felt really comfortable with the care she provided and plan to use her again soon.”

Bob M.

“Lori was amazing for our Mabel. She was very accommodating and you can tell dogs are her passion. She was great at communicating with us and sending pictures to show what a great time our dog was having while staying with her. We felt very comfortable leaving Mabel with her and know she took great care of her and will definitely use Lori again.”

Abigail K.

“I felt so comfortable knowing that Megan was caring for my girls while we were on vacation! We even had some cute pics to enjoy showing that they were having a great time.”

Rebekah W.

“I had an amazing experience with Jen, and so did my dog Pearl. Pearl is an anxious pup but Jen went above and beyond to keep her calm and happy. I got a ton of photo updates and just felt so relieved and happy knowing that my dog was having a great time while I was away!”

Monica S.

“Lola had an amazing time with Melissa and her family! They sent lots of pictures and updates throughout her stay, which gave us so much peace of mind. It was clear Lola was treated like part of the family and received lots of love and attention. I would absolutely recommend Melissa to anyone looking for a caring and reliable sitter, and we would definitely book with them again!”

Kaylie H.

“I had to find a sitter last minute and so happy I was able to find Cody. He was a great sitter, kept me informed and very down to earth person. This was my first time going through an animal sitter service but I will definitely book again.. with Cody ❤️”

Ashley N.

“Crystal is amazing! She made my family and our furry kid feel comfortable. She will provide lots of photos and her communication is top tier. She is now our go to sitter for Charlie. Thank you Crystal!!”

Ericka B.

“Abi was amazing with Tater! Everything went perfect from the pre-visit, drop off, stay and pick up. Abi sent updates and pictures every day and throughout the day. We never had to reach out and ask how Tater was doing. We had to ask to extend Taters stay due to our flight being cancelled and rebooked. Abi was super flexible and allowed us to extend our stay. Tater was happy and relaxed when we picked her up from Abi. This was such a great experience! We will definitely be rebooking with Abi the next time we need a sitter for Tater.”

Cindy C.

“Stefan was awesome and took great care of our 15yr old pup! We could tell she felt right at home during her stay, which means a lot since she is a generally anxious dog, and we got plenty of pictures and updates of her hanging out.”

Ayesha A.

“Erin had great communication, flexible with our drop off and pick up. Erin & George sent photos throughout Lola’s short stay. We were referred by friends and we are so happy that we found our new sitters.”

Allison R.

“Sharon took very good care of my dog Bear for the week I was gone and Wesley was a great friend for her as well. She is very understanding and flexible when I got delayed due to a snowstorm. I can’t recommend her enough as someone who will take care of your fur babies as her own and leave you with no worries!”
