Dog Boarding Services
Serving the Greater Seattle Area. Based in Mill Creek, WA.
We're offering 10% off to new clients!
With over 20 years of experience in dog care, I provide personalized, one-family-at-a-time boarding in a peaceful, pet-free home. I’m passionate about giving dogs a stress-free, loving environment while you're away — complete with snuggles, Swedish-style dog massages, enrichment play, and walks around my quiet neighborhood.
My background includes fostering for rescue groups, working at a boarding facility overseeing 30+ dogs at a time, volunteering at animal shelters, and providing palliative care for senior dogs. I'm experienced in administering oral medications, injections, and subcutaneous fluids.
You’ll receive frequent text updates (often 3x/day or more) with videos and photos so you always know how your dog is doing. Safety and cleanliness are top priorities — I clean between every stay, and your dog will never be out of sight when outside in my fenced yard. I'm also certified in pet CPR and first aid and am fully insured.
Based near Mill Creek, WA and serving the greater Seattle area, I work from home, so your dog will have near-constant companionship. No kids, no other pets — just a calm, cozy environment where your dog can relax with joy (pun intended)!
