Dog Boarding in Kensington

Luna had such a great stay with Lucia! She provided lots of photos, videos, and updates. I can tell she really cares about the dogs she watches, and I would definitely book with her again!

My dog Fred has always had a little bit of anxiety when I go out of town. But not when he stays at Mariola’s place. He’s always so happy to see her and her daughter, and always looks healthy and calm when I go to pick him up. I can’t say enough about what a relief it is for Free to have a second home at Mariola’s place.

Catherine was amazing. She cared for our 7-month-old puppy, Cricket, for a whole week while we were away, and we felt completely at ease and new that she was in great hands. From when we first met her, it was clear that Catherine is a real dog person -- warm attentive and genuinely excited to spend time with Cricket. It was obvious that she truly cared about her and enjoyed having her. Her dog, Kizmet was also a sweet role model for Cricket. Catherine sent the cutest photos and videos of Kizmet and Cricket cuddling and napping together, along with daily updates from the dog park and their adventures. She sent photos, videos, and little notes every day, which really put me at ease knowing how happy and well cared for Cricket was. The day we came back we arrived home at 8:30 at night and she tired Cricket out with lots of park visits so she would be tired when we got home. And she even gave Cricket a bath before pickup! We’re so grateful to have found Catherine. Nothing better than truly feeling at ease when traveling knowing that your dog is in such loving hands. Thank you, Catherine! You're the best. We'll definitely be in touch again the next time we're away.

Luna is a wonderful dog sitter! Cosmo, my dog was thrilled and happy to have stayed with her and her lovely dog, Jim! Jim was also the perfect fur host, showing Cosmo where they should play and that it was okay to run around and play together. Luna has a large and lovely yard and Cosmo enjoyed the serenity of the yard and home. Cosmo can be shy and aloof, and he does not react well to negative energy. But, he warmed up to Luna because of her thoughtful and positive approach to care giving. I trusted her to take good care of him. And, she did! Cosmo can be a velcro dog as he is with us practically 24/7, so it eased our anxiety to know that she was there for him. Thank you Luna for taking good care of Cosmo. Much aloha, Diane and Philip G.

Ashish and his family were fantastic hosts for our cheagle, Buddy. He clearly enjoyed his tiime in their home and Ashish shared lots of wonderful photos and videos to keep us in the loop.

I’ve sent my Max to two different kennels and he always comes back so sad, to the point that he doesn’t respond to us petting him. I wanted to try something more personable so I tried Rover. Maria was great and sent me photos and updates of Max during his stay. She noticed he wasn’t eating and made him special food for him with my permission of course. He came back so happy this time! He literally was smiling and happy to see us. One of her neighbors stopped my husband on the way out to tell him how much all the other neighbors liked Max. I’m sure they met him several times during his walks with Maria. I would highly recommend her!

Julie and Adam are terrific! So kind, personable, thoughtful, and relaxed. They have a lovely fully fenced backyard where a dog can explore with lots of garden items to sniff. They took time to ask questions and are just so easy to interact with. Kona had a great time, which means I got to have a great time too. Thank you!

I had a wonderful boarding experience and it was clear (through amazing and frequent photos and videos) that my dog, Wolfe, did too! I would highly recommend Danielle to anyone and will 100% be reaching out to schedule future bookings.

Allora and her husband Oliver are so sweet and understanding of anxious dogs. My dog Laila is reactive to dogs and can be afraid of men, but glad to hear that she's enjoying her time with their dog Boba and snuggling with Oliver. Allora sent lots of updates throughout the 2-day trial which I truly appreciate. I'm confident that her long stay with them will be successful!

My dog Bentley had great stays with Ross, Melissa and Millie. I love their dog friendly home and caring attitude. They provided lots of fun updates with pics and videos, which put my mind at ease. Great experience.

Patrick took great care of our Bubbles for a whole week. It was easy to work with Patrick from the initial contact to post care. He's very thorough and tried to keep the same routine for our Bubbles. The daily photos are reassuring. I would definitely book Patrick's service again.

Louis was great with my shy 8-year-old pittie. It normally takes at least a full day for Thor to warm up to new people, but after just a 15-minute introduction at Louis’s home, he acted like he’d lived there his entire life. Louis has a real gift for making anxious dogs feel comfortable and safe.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

Kianna and her family took great care of Zoey in their home. Kianna sent updates and photos daily, so I knew that Zoey was having a good time whether she was playing at the park or snoozing in the sun. I would definitely board Zoey with Kianna again.

Lucas was very responsive to my communications and was flexible with our situation (I needed someone to watch our dog when I had to give birth to my daughter). He did a great job of taking care of our dog.

So thankful to have found Robert & Brian. Robert was incredibly thoughtful in our pre-visit discussion. He asked so many insightful questions...and sent amazing photos of her adventures. I almost felt bad for picking her up, like her vacation was over! 😂

Absolutely loved Kai’s stay with Yuko! I had 4 trips over 3 months and was feeling guilty and worried about leaving Kai again for 6 days. We did a meet and greet and right away I felt comfortable that Kai would be well cared for. Yuko was flexible, so caring, and communicative - I received videos and updates about Kai’s state and whether she was eating well. I was so comforted knowing Kai was with loving dog sitters and had doggie friends to play with. Highly recommend!
