Pet Boarding Waddy

About: Kayla: "I grew up with numerous horses, dogs and cats. I've worked at couple pet boarding hotels and the Lexington Humane Society, so I can make sure all of your pet's complex needs are met. I'm not a certified trainer, but I have a lot of experience training horses and dogs (you'd be surprised how much they have in common). More recently, I have been training our Aussie Bandit, which has been a challenging yet rewarding adventure. I believe strongly in positive reinforcement and have read numerous training/pet psychology books to be the best dog mom I can be." Brandon: "My family grew up with a Shiz-Tzu/Maltese mix. I have pet sit numerous of my friend's pet throughout college. Shortly after college, I rescued a dog (unknown pit mix), whom was my companion until Kayla and I met then he became our companion. We would go on walks, roller-blades, runs, and travel the country. If a dog could go on the adventure, he came along. His life was full of love, given and received, and we're ready to open our home to share that love with your dog." Together, we've been dog parents for 10+ years. Brandon works from home and is nearly always available. Pets are allowed on furniture, though not our bed. Snuggles are mandatory. Enrichment is available however your dog prefer: walks, runs, ball in the yard, socialization at the park, mental stimulation treat toys, you name it. Brandon works from home and can let dogs out as frequently as needed during the day. When we're both off work, we tend to do enriching activities with our dog. On weekends, we tend to stay close to home, or take our dog on enriching activities (farmers market, park play, walk) and are happy to bring your dog along if it makes sense to. We have a small fenced in yard, good for bathroom breaks and small play. No children in this house, and we keep the space generally clear for dogs to be able to run/move around. The couch is a fan-favorite for snugglers. We're nice and close to Masterson Station dog park, if your dog needs more space and/or likes to be social.

“My dog Bear had a great time! I got plenty of updates and pictures- I know Bear will be in great hands anytime. I definitely recommend Marissa for sitting!”

About: I was raised in a home with pets. My mother was a dog trainer, show dog champion, and breeder so I have life-long pet experience. I have cared for hamsters, fish, dogs, cats, birds, horses, rabbits and turtles. I currently have a male mini-dachshund who sleeps with me and is my best buddy. I’m retired and available most days of the week or weekends. I am available for long-term stays or drop-in visits when you just need someone to provide a potty break or a mid-day walk. I know that when I need a dog sitter, I prefer someone to stay in my home that allows my little buddy to stay in his normal surroundings, so I get it and will do the same for you and yours. However, if you prefer I board your pet, I have a fenced yard and allow pets on furniture, unless you have trained your pet to not be allowed on furniture. My home is clean and non-smoking.

“I CANNOT say enough good things about both Rick and his fiancé Annemarie! They were God-sent ANGELS for our wedding weekend! We were out of town - all of us were - and really needed someone who could keep Millie for us. Even though they stayed a half hour away, they were above-and-beyond accommodating, staying flexible with our schedule as things changed on our end. They came and picked her up from us, brought her back for rehearsal the same day so my nephew could practice walking her down the aisle, took her back home. They sent me pictures of her and their dog Buckley all throughout the weekend and she looked like she was having fun, getting good sleep and was comfortable. When Annemarie brought Millie to my wedding, she came dressed up to blend in with the other guests and I never heard Millie bark the whole time. She stayed around in the hot heat for pictures so Millie could be in a few pictures with us before taking her back to their home. Finally, they kept her through an extra day for us so we could have a little breather time before we had to pack everything up at our hotel room and head back home. We could not have made it through our wedding weekend without Annemarie and Rick's help. All of their story-sharing about what Millie was up to with Buckley all weekend was so nice to see intermittently as we were busy buzzing about doing our wedding activities. We are so GRATEFUL for everything they did and it's clear Millie was well taken care of and comfortable because she was so calm and relaxed when Rick returned her to us! Truly extra sweet! Thanks again for everything!”

“Simba enjoyed his time with Carrie so much that I was worried he wouldn’t want to come home! Knowing he was well cared for allowed me to relax and enjoy my vacation!”

“We had to leave town last minute and Heather really made herself available for us! I am so blessed we took a chance on her, my babies have never stayed with a stranger. Heather sent photos and updates, and the pups were so loved and taken care of! I highly recommend her to anyone who is looking for quality care, she’s very knowledgeable and loving, and my pups were well-loved the whole week ❤️ She’s ready for puppies to elder dogs, book her now!”

“Michelle and her husband are absolutely amazing! They watched our very energetic 5-month-old goldendoodle for 4 nights and he had a blast during his stay! He loved playing with other their dogs and two others that were being watched and left happy and exhausted when we picked him up. I‘ve already talked to Michelle about Stanley coming over for doggy daycare days going forward and would absolutely leave him in their care for an extended stay again.”

“Sarah was amazing with our Great Pyrenees! We were so worried about leaving him but she put our minds at ease with plenty of status reports and pics! When we picked him up, he wasn’t overly excited to see us, we think he was actually a little upset that he had to go home! We can tell he was well taken care of....Sarah even gave him a bath before returning him to us! We are all looking forward to his next visit. Highly recommend!”

“Glenn and Terrill were great while watching my cat, Jasper! He stayed with them for 10 days, and I received many pictures and updates on how he was doing. I would highly recommend them to watch your furry friend, they are great!”

She is sweet and gets along well with other dogs! I have open availability until August 10th! Then, I will work a normal 7:30-4:30 schedule! Feel free to reach out to see if we would be a good fit.

About: Hi! My name is Kalin, and I'm someone who loves God, people, animals, and life in general! I've always been told that I'm a happy person with a big smile, and I try my best to share that happiness with everyone I meet. I have a huge heart for animals, and I'll admit, sometimes I think I love them more than people! After all, pets never judge you, and they're always there to love you no matter what kind of day you're having. When it comes to caring for your dog, I promise to treat them with the same love, patience, and attention that I give my own. To me, pets aren't just animals. They're family, and I treat them like my own children (if I had any!). A little fun fact about me: my absolute favorite food is pasta with marinara sauce! I could probably fill this page three times over with stories and little things about myself, but I'll spare you all that reading for now! If you'd like to get to know me better or have any questions about how I'll care for your furry family member, please don't hesitate to send me a message. I'd love to hear from you, and I hope to meet you and your sweet pup soon! God bless! Thank You For Your Business. Kalin F. I do not have a job and I do this full time. I can give your fur-baby plenty of love and care. Contact me for more information, I have a fenced yard and two friendly dogs to keep your fur baby company. I can create your dog if needed. Contact me for more information.
