Dog Boarding Woodbine Forest

“My puppy had loads of fun and came back home a really tired one, which just tells me how joyful his stay was. Jim clearly knows how to care of dogs and constantly gave me updates to let me know how my puppy was doing.”

“Rosalina and her family are incredible. Roscoe was well cared for and so happy. Rosalina sent me pictures throughout the stay and she even bathed Roscoe before I picked him up because he got dirty playing outside. Highly recommend (and I am a very nervous dog mom).”

“Oh my gosh where do I start!! I cannot say enough good things about Jackelin! She was absolutely amazing! She consistently sent me pictures and videos throughout the 3 days that I boarded my dog with her, She let me do a meet and great, she updated me throughout the day, and was fast to communicate with! If you’re looking for someone who truly will care for your dog as their own and will update you with pictures and videos throughout the day. Jackelin is the one for you!! Cooper will definitely be returning! ❤️❤️ Thank you so much Jackelin!”

“Rachel was wonderful with Mazie, flexible with some late changes in our plans, and a pleasure to communicate with and work with all around. Mazie came back tired and happy and everything was easy and smooth. More than anything, we were so comfortable and confident while Mazie was away, which made all the difference in our trip. Thank you Rachel!”

“Absolutely wonderful dog sitter and caregiver! Kathleen (Katie) has been my go-to dog boarder for over 15 years, and I was thrilled when she joined Rover so more people could find her. She recently watched my dog for me, and it was just as fantastic as always. From the very first day we met, I knew my pups were in the best hands. Katie truly loves dogs and it shows in everything she does. When we adopted our puppy a while back, Katie was incredibly helpful — offering advice, extra patience, and gentle guidance as we all adjusted to life with a new little one. She has such a calming presence with dogs of all ages and personalities. My dog always comes home happy, well-exercised, and clearly well-loved. If you’re looking for someone who treats your dog like their own, look no further. Katie is professional, communicative, trustworthy, and genuinely passionate about what she does. I recommend her without hesitation — she’s the real deal! Thank you, Katie, for always taking such great care of my furry family members. ❤️”

About: I’m a professional dog trainer with over 10 years of experience working with dogs of all breeds, ages, temperaments, and training levels. Dog training and behavior isn’t a hobby for me—it’s what I do professionally every day. What sets my home apart from a typical boarding environment is the experience, structure, and understanding of canine behavior your dog receives while staying with me. I’m comfortable working with everything from puppies and high-energy working breeds to senior dogs and dogs with behavioral challenges, including reactivity and aggression. Dogs stay on my private 1.2-acre property with a fully fenced 6-foot privacy fence, giving them plenty of safe space for exercise, play, and outdoor time. I believe dogs need more than simply being let outside—they need engagement, play, structure, and biological fulfillment. I own and work German Shepherds and Belgian Malinois and have extensive experience with powerful, high-drive working breeds. I understand that every dog is an individual, so their stay is tailored to their temperament, energy level, physical abilities, and needs. Dogs are safely kenneled when they cannot be directly supervised and receive individual attention, play, exercise, and structured time throughout their stay. I also provide regular photo and video updates so you can actually see how your dog is doing while you’re away. Whether you have an easygoing family dog, a young energetic puppy, a senior who needs a little extra consideration, or a dog that isn’t appropriate for a traditional daycare or boarding facility, my goal is to provide a safe, structured, enjoyable environment where you can feel confident leaving your dog. Dogs are already a major part of my daily routine. As a professional dog trainer, my days are built around training, exercising, playing with, and caring for dogs, so boarding isn’t something I have to fit around a traditional 9-to-5 schedule. I work from my home and have the flexibility to provide frequent potty breaks, outdoor time, individual play, exercise, and attention throughout the day. My property sits on 1.2 private acres with a fully fenced 6-foot privacy fence, giving dogs plenty of safe space to get outside and enjoy themselves. I keep a structured routine while also adjusting each dog’s day based on their age, energy level, temperament, physical needs, and what they’re accustomed to at home. Dogs are safely kenneled whenever they cannot be directly supervised and get multiple opportunities throughout the day to be outside, move, play, and engage. Because dogs are part of my everyday life—not something I care for only before or after work—I’m able to be very involved throughout their entire stay. Safety is my first priority. As a professional dog trainer, I understand canine behavior, body language, stress, arousal, and how quickly interactions between dogs can change. I don’t believe in simply putting unfamiliar dogs together and hoping everyone gets along. Dogs staying with me are supervised and managed based on their individual temperament, behavior, and needs. I have the ability to keep dogs completely separate when necessary, which also allows me to safely accommodate dogs that may not be appropriate for traditional daycare or open-play boarding environments. My home sits on 1.2 private acres with a fully fenced 6-foot privacy fence, providing plenty of secure space for outdoor time, exercise, and play. Dogs are safely kenneled whenever they cannot be directly supervised, and I never rely on a fenced yard as a substitute for supervision. Each dog’s routine is individualized. I follow owner instructions regarding feeding, medications, physical limitations, household routines, and any behavioral concerns. I’m experienced with puppies, senior dogs, high-drive working breeds, reactive dogs, and dogs with aggression or other behavioral challenges. I also have German Shepherd and Belgian Malinois working dogs of my own. Guest dogs are not automatically expected to interact with my personal dogs or other boarding dogs. Any interaction is intentional and based on the individual dogs involved. My goal is to provide owners with something I would want for my own dogs: a clean, secure, structured environment with knowledgeable supervision, plenty of individual attention, play and outdoor time, and regular photo and video updates so you can feel confident about where your dog is staying.

“This was our first time boarding our 2 dogs (ages 15 and 5) in a private home and this was the first time that our dogs returned from boarding with no signs of stress. Vanessa, Geoffrey, and Johanna have a great room set up for the dogs and were very accommodating to the needs of our 15 year old dog. They sent photos and messages throughout the week to assure us that our dogs were doing fine. We highly recommend Vanessa, Geoffrey, and Johanna and would not hesitate to board with them again.”

“I know who my new pet sitter will be!! I know my sweet little Puppy was having such a good time!! Also Mai was so great about sending videos and pictures!! Will certainly use her again!!!”

Jenny L.

“This is the first time I used this app. I was very pleased from the “meet and greet” to the time I dropped off my pet for boarding. I received pics every day. This kept me connected with my pet. Nancy took good care of my pet. I will use her again.”

About: I’ve been a pet sitter since I was 10 years old, caring for cats, dogs, birds, and rabbits of all ages. Experience with puppies and senior animals, and the extra care that requires. Available for overnights, daytime visits, and even bath time. I currently work full time but I am available in the evenings to love on your furry family member. I love taking dogs for walks or playing fetch. I have a crate to keep your pup comfortable in my home, plus a dog, cat, and two affectionate teenagers. If visiting a client’s home, I will love on the fur baby and make sure it has plenty of food, water, treats, and playtime.

“Michelle was wonderful with my boys! What I appreciated most was her daily updates — she kept me informed about how they were settling in, how they were adjusting to a new environment, and how they were getting along with her own fur girls. The photos she sent were such a comfort while I was away. Her communication was also excellent. When a potential marking issue came up, she handled it thoughtfully and professionally — she was open to using diapers instead of crating, which I really appreciated her flexibility on. The one area I’d note is that she seemed to have a busy work schedule, as we all do… When I returned, Huku’s (senior) diaper was full, suggesting he had not been out for a while that day— something to keep in mind if regular outdoor breaks are important for your pups. But overall, Michelle is super caring and communicative sitter who genuinely looks after your dogs. I would certainly ask her again!”

“Our pups were well taken care of by Darnell! We felt our dogs were welcomed by the family and even had some doggie playmates! Darnell sent us pictures daily and updated us on how our pups were doing. We had a last minute request for doggie sitting due to a family funeral and Darnell had no problem taking our pups in last minute. We recommend him and would use his services again in the future!”

“My dog loved staying with Vanessa and her family. She took great care of him and was able to assist me in a pinch when my regular dog care was unavailable”

About: I have over 20 years of experience caring for pets, I have a genuine passion for animals and providing them with the love, attention, and care they deserve. I have extensive experience with both dogs and cats. I’m happy to care for pets of all ages and personalities to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I’ll treat your pets like they’re my own, keep you updated with photos and messages, and follow their routines as closely as possible. I can’t wait to meet your furry friends! I am available anytime and have an open schedule so I can work with the needs of my clients. I can do walks any time of day. I live in a safe private neighborhood in a single family home. I have two friendly cats at home that are great with other animals.

“Emmanuel is amazing with my puppy! She was such at ease with him and his family! I was kept up-to-date on her days and nights that they spent together. Emmanuel is very observant, caring, and communicative! He brought out her playful side, and I loved the sweet videos and pictures he sent. We will absolutely use him again!”

“Our dog Beau found friends and a home away from home with Noelle. Our almost 13-year-old pup has a slower pace and needs a special diet. Noelle handled his needs brilliantly. She kept us posted with photos and text messages throughout his stay. Beau and her pup became buddies, and the two walked, ate and slept together. We're very grateful for her excellent care.”
