Pet Boarding Stratford

About: I’ve grown up surrounded by pets and have always loved animals. I’m currently a proud dog and cat owner, so I understand how much our pets mean to us and how important it is to have someone trustworthy care for them. I offer dog walking and drop-in visits for dogs, cats, and other pets. I’m responsible, dependable, and attentive, and I’ll make sure your pet gets the care, attention, exercise, and affection they need while you’re away. I’m happy to follow your pet’s normal routine and will treat your animals like they’re my own. I’m a single stay at home mom, so I have lots of time to care for and walk your beloved pets ! I drop my kids at school in the mornings and pick them up in the afternoon, so my availability is very flexible ! I’ve loved and cared for pets my whole life! I grew up with dogs, cats, and just about every caged animal you can think of. I currently have a 3-year-old Maltipoo and a 5-year-old cat, so I understand how much our pets mean to us!

“Katie is very patient with my pup and understands her attachment to me. It takes Bella a while to settle and enjoy her self and Katie is perfect for this. She always ensured me its not a problem and she takes care of it. This is her 2nd time keeping Bella, thus time Katie was more forthcoming with updates then the first time, which I loved. But in her defense she also had a injured arm in a high anxiety pup. So I really understood it, did not let it bother me, because I know where her focus was.And I appreciated that, but when I did reach out to her, she immediately sent me a response back and updates. Bella loves walks and she was great at walking her a few times a day. I will be going away soon and hope Katie is available to keep her. Thank you Katie.”

“Seriously the nicest family you can leave your pup with! This was my first time using Rover and once I met Nadine and her family I had no worries or hesitations! She accommodated my schedule and sent me tons of updates about my pup! I know he had a great stay and got tons of attention and exercise! Thank you guys! :)”

“Rachel was very accommodating and took great care of our dog. She sent us picture updates and took her on multiple walks during her stay. Thank you, Rachel!”

“Hannah is the best cat sitter I've ever had! I was very nervous about boarding my cat for over 3 weeks while we were away on a trip, but Hannah made it easy. She sent constant updates and photos to put my mind at ease, and clearly took amazing care of my cat. I love that my cat had her own separate space and that Hannah works from home, so she was able to spend a lot of time with my cat. My cat also came home with some new toys, which was a nice surprise. I will definitely be booking Hannah again the next time we go away. Thank you so much, Hannah!”

“Catarina was great! Koda can be difficult at times, but she did not mind. He loved staying there. Catarina was very responsive, accommodating and baked homemade cookies for our dog! I would definitely use her again!”

“Wonderful experience, had to find someone last minute for my girls, Millie and Cali, when I was on a family trip and she was awesome! She updated me everyday and returned everything cleaner than I took it to her. Great experience and grateful for her help.”

“Jayme really helped us out with watching Diesel when we had to go away for a long weekend for a family wedding. I felt very comfortable knowing that Diesel was in good hands and that he had a yard to play around with. Jayme is very kind and sent several pictures of Diesel. Knowing that he was in someone’s loving home and not in a boarding facility put me at ease. I would recommend Jayme without hesitation for anyone who wants their dog to have a home away from home!”

Allison G.

“My dog is usually very scared and timid, but Hailey was amazing with her! Not only was Hailey super accommodating of me reaching out last minute - but my dog genuinely seemed like she enjoyed her time away at Hailey’s house. She was always smiling in photos and super content when I picked her up. We will definitely be booking with Hailey again. (:”

“Charlotte was amazing with Marnie! Very responsive before and during the stay and gave her amazing care. Marnie was sad to leave when we picked her up!”

Brandon K.

“Tina was great! She was flexible on timing, very communicative, sent great pictures of our dog, and he came home happy. Would recommend her highly and look forward to using her in the future.”

About: (Ask about $40 off your first rover booking, code available!) - I work in physical therapy and know the importance of exercise! My own dog, the sweetest lab ever, recently passed so I have started rover again to help other owners and to be around other dogs or animals! I work off hours for my patients. I have availability on weekends and mornings before I go in or in the evening after I get out. I am very active and go on walks multiple times per day anyways. If your dog is looking for exercise while you are away, I think I would be a great fit.

About: I’ve been welcoming other people’s dogs into my home for more than 20 years. It started because I knew firsthand how hard it was to leave my own dog when I traveled. I wanted there to be another option for people like me—people who couldn’t imagine leaving their dog in a kennel but also weren’t comfortable having someone stay in their home. What began as something I offered to friends became something I genuinely love doing. There’s something very special about watching a dog arrive in an unfamiliar place, helping them settle in and trust me, and eventually seeing them stretched out on the couch or curled up beside me as though they’ve always lived here. I still miss them when they go home. I board dogs from only one family at a time because I want their stay to feel less like boarding and more like their own vacation. While they’re here, they live with me as part of my household. I work from home and structure my days around them, so they have plenty of companionship and frequent access to my fully fenced yard. I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes, from very small dogs to dogs over 100 lbs, as well as puppies and seniors. They’re welcome on my furniture and, if they sleep with their people at home, they’re welcome to sleep with me. I don’t routinely crate dogs, but I’ll maintain a dog’s crate routine if that’s what they’re accustomed to at home. I require a Meet & Greet before accepting a new dog because I want your dog to be comfortable with me, my home and my dog—and I want you to feel completely comfortable leaving them with me. After more than 20 years, the reason I do this hasn’t changed. I want you to be able to enjoy your time away knowing your dog is enjoying theirs, too—living in a home, getting affection and companionship, and being cared for by someone who understands just how much they mean to you. While your dog is in my care, I structure my days around them. I work from home, have my groceries delivered and generally don’t schedule activities that require me to leave them alone. There’s no rigid boarding schedule here—their normal routine becomes part of mine. Whether they want to follow me around the house, nap beside me while I work, play, cuddle or head into the fenced yard, they have companionship throughout the day. While your dog is with me, I treat them as one of my own, with the same love, attention and care I give my own dog. Before a dog stays with me for the first time, I require a Meet & Greet with my dog so we can make sure they’re comfortable together before you leave your dog in my care. I board dogs from only one family at a time, so there aren’t unfamiliar boarding dogs constantly coming and going. My yard is fully fenced, and while your dog is here, I follow your instructions for feeding, medications and normal routines. I don’t crate dogs unless their family specifically requires it as part of their normal routine.

“Allyson was absolutely incredible with my two dogs! They came home tired, happy, and having had a lovely night at her house. Would absolutely book again and felt so safe with her having the dogs!”

“Julie was a fantastic sitter for our cat for an extended vacation. She sent pics and kept our cat happy and healthy during the stay. Professional, responsive, and recommended!”

“Alondra and her family were the best! This was the first time I used Rover or any pet sitting service for my pups and I’m really glad I found Alondra. My peanuts had a blast with her and the other dogs, and she really put me at ease when I was out of town, especially with the daily updates of both pictures and fun videos. Thanks so much, Alondra and to your family! If ever I need to be out of town for a long time, I’ll know who to contact.”
