Pet Boarding Taftville

“Nicole is absolutely wonderful! She took great care of our pets: boarded our dog and dropped in on our cat. Both have medical needs and special diets that she managed well too. Honestly our pets were better cared for by her than a local boarding facility we've used in the past, and she provided daily updates and photos which gave us great peace of mind. Highly recommend her and would definitely hire again!”

“Torie was great with our two morkies, one of which has PLE and has some intense dietary restrictions. She was very communicative and quick to respond during the stay! Thank you Torie!”

“Elisa was wonderful with communication and updates for my Bru, as well as very responsive. Very easy and professional to book with and very trustworthy. Would absolutely use her services again in the future. 🐾”

“Crystal was absolutely wonderful looking after our dog over the Christmas period. She sent regular updates and photos/videos, which really kept our minds at ease while we were away. Earlier in the year, our dog spent three days at a kennel and struggled quite a bit, so we were understandably anxious about leaving him again. The difference with Crystal was night and day. He spent seven nights in a loving home environment, had so much fun with the other dogs, and received genuine care and attention from Crystal and her family. We came home to a happy, relaxed dog, which says everything. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Crystal and will absolutely be using her again.”

When working with you and your animal companions you will always get photo updates, report cards, and safety as a priority! -My special skills include being able to provide enrichment and safe pet care practices, such as double leash retention, ice sheets during hotter months, water, and a first aid kit on me at all times during walks/visits. I can provide certain medical requests (such as oral medication or injections). I grew up with dogs (small, medium, and LARGE), cats, birds, small companion animals, fish, and horses over the years. I do this full-time and have plenty of availability! I can usually fill most accommodations and requests based on availability when a booking is requested! When caring for a client’s animal companion in their homes, I always make sure to conduct a consultation (meet and greet) so that I am introduced to the companions before providing services. This ensures that your animal companions feel safe and secure with someone they are familiar with while I am in their home. This is used to establish what boundaries and needs your animal companion needs from me while you are away. Safety is the most important aspect of my job for your animal companions. All services are base rates.

About: I have taken care and have had dogs and other animals for all my life until recently no dogs and miss having one around.. I have always trained my own dogs with basic commands. I sit my moms larhr dogs every couple months when she travels. I make my own schedule, and it is partly in person and partly at home. I always have the weekends and evenings off. Flexible schedule. I love going for walks and prefer to have a companion. I have a large yard, partially fenced. I have chickens and cats that are spoiled. I am a very clean person, am thoughtful, and always aware of my surroundings.

“Shannon hosted our dog for a week while we went on vacation. I highly recommend her! We had a meet and greet prior and then checked in before the start day. Shannon was always quick to respond. She knows dogs so well and took great care of our lab. She also sent a couple of photos and videos while we were away. We will definitely be returning to Shannon the next time there is a need! Thank you so much Shannon!”

“Laura was so wonderful! She made our family and our pup so comfortable and sent pictures and updates throughout our trip. We were so happy knowing that our dog got to be part of Laura’s family while we were away. We’d highly recommend Laura!”

Hadley K.

“I left my 18 months Siberian Husky with Steve and Cathy for a week while I had to travel. This was the first time that I was leaving my dog for such a long trip, so I was initially worried; but after meeting Steve and Cathy I was assured that Ares would be taken care of. They took such good care of Ares and sent me pics with updates. I would definitely use them again!!!”

Simmi C.

“Miranda did an excellent job. I felt our dog was well-cared for and loved while he was in Miranda's care. He came back to us happy and content after 5 days. We received regular quality updates about how he was doing and adapting. I will definitely have him stay with Miranda again.”

Carla M.

“Kristin was wonderful with our dog, Houston! He was a shy and nervous dog but settled in so well! We were surprised by how comfortable he was in her home. She sent videos and pictures daily and it made our vacation so much more enjoyable knowing that he was in great hands! Thank you again!”

Amanda M.

“Laura went above and beyond to make sure our first time leaving our puppy went smoothly. From thorough communication before the booking, to updates during our vacation, it was such a relief to know that he was in good hands (and also having fun too)! If we travel again and need dog care, I will definitely be checking Laura's availability; I'm so glad I found her!”

About: I have been taking care of dogs for about 6 years and have encountered all types, from the couch potatoes to the ones who want to play nonstop! I am home full time so I am available any day and any time for drop off and pick up. Being home full time also means I will be available for your pet at anytime they need me throughout there stay at my home. I have a sturdy 100 ft dog runner that has held very large dogs. However,if your dog does better on a regular leash just let me know and I can leash for bathroom breaks instead. While at my home your pet is my only priority and I am happy to suit any needs they have.

“Great job with Nugget and Dixie! Got along well with their dog and seemed to have fun while away.”

About: Taken care of dogs + other pets since I was 5 and always have loved taking care of them, especially puppies, including my own and other's. I have open availability as long as there are no other appointments that day; I accept same-day appointments as well and shape to your needs. I make sure pets are always comfortable and just like people, they can be afraid of new people too so I will always make sure to be considerate of all pets feelings.
