Dog Boarding West Gate

“Emily was awesome! She kept me updated daily with pictures and text messages. I felt very comfortable with leaving my dog while on vacation with Emily. I'm very pleased and will use her for the future.”

“Quick to respond and sent cute photos. Our dog can be shy around new people and animals, but he found spots he felt comfortable and came out of his shell a little”

Jeannine F.

“Kimi made our trip because we knew Moose was going to be in the best hands! This is our second time having Kimi watch Moose and he always comes back happy! She sends pics and videos daily and always gives an update as well! Very responsive with any questions or comments! She’s a dog lover and it shows!”

About: Your pet’s comfort is my priority, I have over 20 years experience owning and caring for pets. I bring a reliable, structured approach to pet care. I have hands‑on experience with training and reinforcing good habits through consistency and positive engagement. I am able to recognize signs of stress. So to the greatest extent possible, I will follow established feeding, walking, and bedtime routines to keep pets grounded while you’re away. I’m confident with younger pets who like to test boundaries giving them the opportunity to make good choices. I'm patient and attentive with senior pets, including those who need slower pacing or extra reassurance, and I’m able to administer medications safely per directions. I treat every animal like they're my family, giving them the same structure and affection they’re used to at home. I work full time from home which allows me to provide attentive and consistent care. Although I work from home and my schedule is relatively flexible, I maintain standard office hours and have client calls throughout the day. Morning or lunchtime drop-offs and pick-ups are preferred if possible. Mornings between 730am and 9am and mid-day between 12pm-1pm are best. if afternoon drop offs/pick-ups are required, my schedule generally allows for that between 4pm-5pm. I take classes approximately four days a week so am generally unavailable for drop‑offs and pick‑ups between 5:30pm - 8:30pm due to the scheduled class times. However, with enough advanced notice I may be able to accommodate your need. if you have questions or a unique situation, please reach out. We truly love your pets like our own and would love for them to come stay with us. Welcome to our home—where pets are family and comfort comes first. My spouse and I recently moved to the Anderson county area and are still in the process of getting settled. I have always had pets in my life. I love their companionship, affection, loyalty, good nature, and adventurous spirit. I provide a loving home where your pets are treated like family. I live in a single‑family home with a fenced yard. I work from home, giving me a flexible schedule for attentive and consistent care. Our household is slower‑paced, making it an ideal environment for senior dogs and small to medium companions who enjoy a calm, cozy routine. Consistent structure and routine are critical for our pets to relax and enjoy themselves. I understand this and am committed to maintaining routines that you have established for your companion. We love to field trip and go hike state parks and gentle trails on the weekends. Everyone's time is limited on this spinning space-rock so we think it's important to give them all the love we can while we're here and to allow them to make their own memories; to enjoy new experiences and new environments. I share my home with my wife (who arguably loves pets more than I do ;), a friendly and sociable 4-year-old female beagle/lab mix 30lbs and one senior female domestic short hair cat. So it’s important that your pet is comfortable with and gets along with other animals. However, if your animal requires some level of isolation due to medical reasons, I have the space to accommodate. For everyone's safety and comfort there are a few things that need to be in place. I only take one client at a time. With that, I insist we have an initial meet and greet. So that the first time your loved one meets me is not in a strange or stressful environment. This makes sure we all (pets included) have a chance to meet and make sure we mesh. Unfortunately, I cannot accept unneutered males or females in heat. all pets must be current on vaccines and be on flea prevention—experience has taught me that prevention is far easier than eradication. Although my schedule is flexible, I maintain standard office hours so have client calls throughout the day. Morning or lunch time drop offs and pick-ups are preferred if possible. Mornings between 730am and 9am and mid-day between 12pm-1pm are best. if afternoon drop offs/pick-ups are required, my schedule generally allows for that between 4pm-5pm. I take classes approximately four days a week so am generally unavailable for drop‑offs and pick‑ups between 5:30pm - 8:30pm due to the scheduled class times. However, with enough advanced notice I may be able to accommodate changes. if you have questions, please reach out. We truly love your pets like our own and would love for them to come stay with us.

“I’m always happy with their care of my whippet. It’s such a relief to have someone trustworthy to watch our Lulu while we are away. Lulu is so glad to visit, too!”

“I had to book a sitter last minute and didn’t expect to find one. Instead, I found the perfect sitter that Iggy had a blast with! Iggy is very energetic, but she got all of her energy out here!”

Cass F.

“I am very nervous with who I leave my Rocky with, but after meeting Sonya and Anthony and all their furry friends I knew Rocky was going to be left in great hands. They had spacious room and area for all their dogs to run and Rocky was so tired from playing when he got back he slept all day Sunday! Sonya was also amazing on sending me updates on Rocky the entire time I was away and kept me in the loop which I was most worried about. Rocky was so happy to be with them and doesn’t like most people but warmed up to them very easily. 1000/10 definitely recommend and would rebook!!”

Robert R.

“I always am so comfortable when I leave my pet with Shayne and Jonathan. This isn’t the first time I have used their pet services and won’t be the last. They are great communicators and send pictures. Sadie is always happy and tired after staying with them.”

About: I have been taking care of pets for our entire lives. i have experience with dogs and cats of all shapes and sizes (as well as reptiles, fish, and plants!). i have been pet-sitting for colleagues and friends for a while now as well as caring for three cats at home. i have previously cared for cats and dogs of all ages, including animals with special needs and medication schedules. I have a fairly flexible schedule at my day job, and will coordinate around your schedule to make sure I can meet every pet's needs. I would prefer to care for pets in your home, as they're likely to be more comfortable that way (and my cats will too). However, I can make exceptions in special cases. I do prefer to have an initial meet and greet with pets and people to make sure everyone's comfortable. For house-sitting, I goal is to make sure your pet(s) are as comfortable as possible, so I will schedule my workday to be there with them as often as possible.

“There aren't enough stars for a rating! Fabienne was just fabulous in every way. I received many photos so I knew my 12 year old lab was in good hands. She wrapped him in a thunder shirt during a thunder storm, gave him lots of love, and even forgave him for getting into her garbage!”

Louie C.

“Sara was wonderful with Koda. Sara paid attention to all of Kodas needs. She sent such great pictures of Koda while we were gone and kept in touch. Definitely using her again. Thank you again!”

About: I've had pets my whole life. My family had a hobby farm when I was growing up. Between myself, my husband, and our daughter we currently have 14 pets. Dogs, cats, ducks, and several reptiles. I especially have a heart for shy/anxious dogs and elderly dogs. I will love your dogs like they are mine, so they are always well taken care of. With my work schedule I am easily able to care for doggies at home. I live 5 minutes from my job and I work in 4 hour chunks. I have a 2 hour lunch break that gives me plenty of time to come home and love on the dogs during the middle of the day. When I'm not home my husband and daughter are there to help out. If drop off is on M,T,W or F morning the drop of will be 7am sharp. Otherwise I can be fairly flexible We have a fenced yard for play time, a climate controlled building for relaxation, and a boat load of love for all things furry. I tailor play time and relaxation time to each dog's individual needs.

“So happy to have found Lisa on Rover to take care of our boy while we were in from out of town for a Clemson football weekend! Great communication and lots of photos had our mind at ease the entire time. Highly recommend!”

Judy R.

“Dana was so kind and sent pictures of our pups often! we can tell they have been loved and cared for so well! 10/10 would definitely have Dana watch them again!”

“Madison did a great job. Was very easy to work with to schedule, took good care of otto and tired him out, and was good about sending photos/videos.”

Jeff L.

“I felt so comfortable leaving my dog with Andrew! He was very kinda and great at communicating. I really appreciate how he took his time to get to know and understand my dog. This is the first time I’ve ever left her with someone else and he made it very smooth. I will gladly trust him with my dog and will be booking again in the future!”
