Dog Boarding Walterville

“Shorty is a puppy we had not gotten a couple weeks prior to needing someone to watch him. We chose Joel and Crystal because of their reviews. Shorty wasn’t well socialized so we were nervous to leave him. Crystal sent regular picture and text updates through Rover. Shorty made new friends! He came home happy, healthy, and tired! I could tell they hadn’t used his crate (we requested only use if necessary) and he reportedly slept with a family member each night which made me SO happy!!! They care about the animals they watch. That meant more to us than anything!”

“Outstanding! We loved how Claire gave us daily updates and sent pictures of our pup's activities and walks. We felt very comfortable and happy with the support and TLC that Claire gave to our pup during his stay with her.”

“Journey was an excellent choice for my sweet Lily. Lily is a soulful pup and takes her time to warm up to strangers and seeing her thrive under Journeys care was wonderful too see!”

Dana C.

“Tessa and Tyler were wonderfully attentive to our rambunctious Zuzu. They sent us adorable pictures and videos of her playing outside and doing her typical sleeping paws up. She totally enjoyed herself and we know absolutely nobody, even in our extended family who could have given her such personalized care.”

Juney W.

“Dylan and his fam were great! Oakley came home happy and relaxed. We felt she was well cared for and we received frequent pics and updates on doggy activities.”

Julie R.

“Great experience for my dog Duke. Cameron is warm and friendly- with people and dogs too! She sent me pix as a daily check-in, which was great.”

Jennifer L.

“Hope took great care of our puppy and I would definitely recommend her. Very communicative and attentive to details. Grateful to have such trustworthy care!”

Elizabeth H.

“Joshua was so helpful! My husband and I were leaving in less than 2 days when my dog sitter bailed. He took in my little man without even doing a meet and greet. He kept me updated and took good care of Danny. I know I can rely on him going forward if needed!”

Whitney L.

“Griffin was great boarding our dog Odie while we were out of state for a few days. Great communication and daily pictures of our boy! Would definitely book again.”

Alyssa L.

“Erin did an exceptional job of communicating with me about how Mitzi was doing during their first time together. Without my asking- Erin sent photos of Mitzi with a brief comment. I will definitely use Erin again if the need arises.”

About: I've raised 2 puppies who spent their whole life with me. I've adopted 1 rescue and 1 senior. They have had health issues (particularly the rescue and senior) so I'm familiar with some of the early and intermediate signs. We are now at a point in our lives where we want to still spend time with dogs, but we aren't looking for the 24/7 commitment. So we would like to host your furry baby for a night or a weekend and give him all the joy of a good friendship without the kennel experience of a dog hotel. We will be taking on pet care Friday thru Sunday. We may be able to support an emergency during the week, but since we both work full time, that would mean I would need to work from home for a day (which is pawsible with notice). However, it would not be our preferred schedule. We want to spend time with your dogs playing and relaxing - not just leaving them in an unfamiliar space while we are at the office. We are looking for day or overnight services on the weekends when we are free and planning to be home. We would expect you to bring enough food and medication to last their expected stay plus 1 day (in case of unforeseen circumstances). Then leave the rest to us. We will give regular bathroom breaks and play times (no yard), much love and pets and be vigilant about your recommended food/medicine. We do not look forward to creating your animal. So we expect at least one of us (husband or wife) to be home at all times and we expect your dog to be housebroken.

“10 stars! Elizabeth has a great love for dogs. Mochi was in the best care with her. She took him in like he was her own. She made sure he had so much fun with so many outings, doggy play dates, and snuggles. She had great communication throughout. We highly recommend her and will definitely reach out to her again in the future.”

About: I grew up with dogs my whole life. I have one of my own. I have trained and raised a couple puppies and housesit and cared for many dogs. I also have veterinary care experience. My schedule is currently very open and I am looking to add caring for animals more into my life as it is something I really genuinely enjoy so I’m available for last minute or prepared ahead of time plans I have a fenced in backyard, with access to a doggie door. I have a miniature dachshund, and a domestic shorthaired cat. My animals rule the roost and are cared for exceptionally well. With access to food and water and a cool house with comfortable beds.

“Angle took great care of my dog! I received regular updates, photos & videos & my pup. He loved playing with Tahoe & the other Rover friends. My dog came back happy, tired & content. He had such a blast on his mini vacation! Thanks Angie!”

Ruthie D.

“Ruthie took great care of our little pup! She checked in frequently and sent us lots of pictures so we knew he was having a good time. She also took him on walks each day and gave him lots of snuggles. It's always a bit of a worry leaving your pup at a new place, but it felt like we had dropped him off with a family member and we'll definitely use her services again!”

Sarah L.

“Valerie took such great care of my two kitty boys! She was truly amazing with them and also with me - sending photos frequently along with updates. She answered my questions and special requests to make sure Izzy was peeing first day. I was able to go visit them as well. Her home is clean and neat. When we arrived to her special room for kitties for drop-off day, it was so welcoming and all set up for two cats. I felt so welcomed. I will have to replicate some of the beds and carpet she has for them, they loved them so much. There is a big, secure catio with kitty door for those cats with indoor-outdoor preferences; it has a whole wooden structure in it for them to climb or be up high or down on the ground. Valerie gave my boys lots of loves and playtime/laptime. Milo "helped" her with paperwork (ahem). She is calm and warm and loving. When I visited, they were so calm. Izzy was hesitant at first, hiding under the bed, but by day 2 he was ready to get rubs and playtime. She even plays soothing kitty t.v./music for them. I 100% recommend Valerie and her set-up. She also invited me for a meet and greet before booking. I am so grateful for Valerie taking care of my cats while I traveled and looked for a rental.”

“Kierstin took such a good care of my girl La Flaca! I have such a hard time leaving her and Kiertin made me feel extremely comfortable and provided a lot of updates and cute photos. Highly recommend and will be utilizing her services again.”

Jose R.

“Thanks to Wilna and her husband for taking good care of my girl. I was nervous to leave her because I had adopted her just three months ago, but a family emergency made it necessary. The photos and updates I received reassured me that she was doing well. She came home happy.”

Melissa F.

“She was so friendly with my little man and did an amazing job with him over the weekend. Even kept him an extra day for us. I would recommend her to everyone and definitely will be using her services again. She was very polite, very accommodating, and my little man adored her”

Armine G.

“Emma is a very caring and loving dog sitter. We could tell that our dog felt right at home with her and her family. We’re looking forward to our next booking with Emma.”
