Pet Boarding in Startex

“Fred was really nervous when we got there, but Brandi made him feel right at home. She took excellent care of him, maybe even spoiled him a little 🩷 and she sent us lots of pictures and videos. He definitely had a good time away from home. Thank you so much for watching him!! I highly recommend Brandi to watch your pup!”

“Chino was well taken care of while I was away. Chino is shy and when I picked her up she did not seem shy at all with them, especially with Shannon's lovely daughter. I would recommend her and she also has a privacy fence surrounding her backyard, which put me at ease also.I would definitely ask for her services again!”

“Our goldendoodle Vivi loved her stay with Dawn (Carolyn)! She took excellent care of her and regularly sent video, photo and written updates, which we really appreciated. We will absolutely book with Dawn again and highly recommend her. You can tell she loves dogs and went above and beyond to make Vivi feel welcome in her home.”

“As always, Lauren and Jonathan did an amazing job taking care of our Chuck Norris. He tends to be hesitant with any males and completely loves Jonathan. We know he is in great hands when we leave him with Lauren and Jonathan. They are our go to sitters”

About: I’ve been passionate about dogs and pet care for over 15 years. As the founder of my own pet wellness brand, Shopypaws, I learned not only how to care for pets with love, but also how important their emotional well-being, routines, nutrition, and behavior are. I have experience with dogs of different sizes, personalities, and energy levels, including active dogs like my own Border Collie mix, Reaver. I truly enjoy spending time with pets, making them feel safe, loved, exercised, and comfortable while their owners are away. Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me to walk, feed, play with, and care for their pets because I treat every dog like family. I’m patient, attentive, responsible, and genuinely passionate about animals and training positive behaviors. 🐾 Your pet will receive loving care, attention, patience, and lots of affection with me. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because caring for animals is something I truly enjoy and prioritize. I have a flexible schedule and can provide walks, playtime, feeding, companionship, and lots of attention throughout the day. I understand how important routines are for dogs, so I do my best to keep them comfortable, active, and stress free while their owners are away. Whether your pup is energetic and playful or calm and shy, I adapt to their personality and needs to make them feel safe and loved. 🐾 Creating a safe, calm, and loving environment for pets is extremely important to me. I treat every dog like family and pay close attention to their behavior, routines, feeding schedules, and comfort levels. I have experience caring for dogs of different personalities and energy levels, including active breeds like my own dog, Reaver. My background as the founder of Shopypaws also taught me a lot about pet wellness, behavior, and positive care practices. I keep pet parents updated with photos and communication so they can feel at peace while away. My goal is always for your pet to feel safe, comfortable, loved, and happy in my care. 🐶✨

“From the moment I met Rebecca and Stan, I knew Charlie would be in the best of hands while we were on vacation! I got regular picture and video updates, which helped ease my mind. Charlie has only been home about 30 minutes and he’s happily playing with his toys and running around. After boarding in other places, he comes home and immediately lays down and rests. We will definitely be using Rebecca again in the future!”

“Thank you for watching Roxy again!! We appreciate your flexibility with the pickup time. I always enjoy seeing the pictures of Roxy and Maple!”

“Lauren is the most amazing dog mom ever! My dog Stella loved her and loved staying at Camp Lauren. I felt totally safe leaving my pup with her and couldn’t recommend her more highly. Thank you, Lauren!!”

Beth L.

“Emily and her family took great care of my special girl Cali - she was happy and healthy when I picked her up, communication and pictures during her stay plentiful, and I knew that she was being well-loved by the whole family. Definitely will stay with Emily again!”

Kerry T.

“Kamiya was easy to work and communicate with, and sent pictures throughout the stay to show how our pup was doing.”

Chris B.

“Rusty was incredible. I was amazed at the questions he asked when we had our ‘meet and greet’ before we dropped off our pups. He treated our elder dog with the respect she deserved and our younger standard poodle loved him. They both had smiles on their faces every time he sent pictures and had a blast. I would definitely recommend Rusty!”

Rynda B.

“Lindsay was so great in ensuring that we were kept up to date on all activities throughout our dog’s stay. She took photos, sent videos, and daily updates that put our minds at ease. Our dog Cilantro had a great time and I would definitely recommend Lindsay to anyone who ever needs dog boarding services!”

Anthony M.

“Angela and her family are awesome! Our dog loves going over there and is always treated well. They follow our house rules such as not getting on the furniture, and they share stories about the funny stuff our dog does during the stay. Highly recommend!!”

Alaina M.

“Our boys we exhausted from all the playing they did at your house. We used to say “let’s go see the baby & Emilee” we might change it to the “Fun house”, lol. Thank you for taking great care of them again!”

Karen W.

“We love when Summer stays at Brianna’s house! She is the absolute best. Her husband and kids treat summer like one of their own. Thanks for loving on our baby, Brianna!”

Allison L.

“The fur babies had a blast and Michelle did great; love the daily video updates and seeing the dogs enjoying themselves and even making some new friends!”

Ian S.

“Mishael and her family were amazing caretakers of our little guy - a chihuahua mix. I was nervous to board him because it was NYE and we were visiting from out of town however she matched the glowing reviews from other clients and quickly put us at ease. I forgot his food of all things and she dipped into her supply. When he cried at night they allowed him to sleep with a family member. They made it look easy with kids and dogs!! I’m so grateful we found them. Thank you!!”

Julie S.

“We had a wonderful experience boarding our golden with Fabienne! She is such a sweet individual and obviously has a passion and love for animals. She updated us often with pictures and videos to see how he was doing. He had so much fun! We will definitely book with Fabienne again!”

Jason B.

“I'm thrilled to share an incredible review for the wonderful person who looked after my dog. They were incredibly kind, played with my dog extensively, and even sent me adorable photos and videos of their playtime. The presence of farm animals like a duck, chicken, and pony added to the joyful experience, as they didn't bother my dog. Their quick responses, respect, and genuine care made the entire pet-sitting experience outstanding. If you’re looking for someone to watch your dog I will forever recommend Julia and her incredible family who made me leaving my dog so easy & carefree. My dog came home with a huge smile and was tired days after because they took so much time to care for him and play with him. Julia and her family are just like family to me after this stay. I seriously can’t recommend Julia enough she is incredible.”

Olivia G.

“Can’t say enough about how much I appreciated how Matt and Heidi provided. Excellent care for Moore little guy. They went above and beyond to make sure he was well loved, even when he wasn’t behaving the best himself! They were very flexible, communicate well, and gave Dax an excellent place to stay while we were away. 605 stars!”
