Dog Boarding in Old Fort Jim

I was so happy to find a place I can take my young dog Reykur to. Michelle's house is very lovely and there is a large fenced in area for the dogs to explore and run. There are only four dogs boarded at a time, two of which are owned by Michelle, which is ideal. The dogs can wander around the house and even sleep on the bed. I could tell Reykur was very happy and I felt very comfortable to leave him there when I went on my five day vacation. That was the first time I left him alone. I will certainly take him back the next time I am out of town. He is a small dog with lots of energy which did not seem to bother Michelle or her husband at all. That was another big plus.

Michelle took such good care of our dog Barley. She sent daily updates, pictures and videos. She made me feel at ease leaving him in her care. I will definitely be using her again in the future. Barley and her dog Aspen had a fun week together!

Shannon was awesome - I would definitely recommend! She watched my 2 dogs for a week while I was on a family vacation. This was a last minute need when my air bnb cancelled and the replacement rental didn’t allow dogs. She responded right away to the request and met up for a doggie meet and greet the same week. She was super responsive throughout the week and sent me regular video and picture updates. I could tell my dogs were really well taken care of and having a great time!

Outstanding. Women had a couple of small dogs and my dog and her dogs good along very well. She had a big yard, took my dog for walks, kept him hydrated, and lived in a nice area in the Sierra foothills. Overall, he seemed happy to go to the dog sitters house and probably would have preferred to stay there instead of coming back home with us!!!!

Patti and her husband took great care of our two Yorkies. They shared pictures of our babies while we were gone and stayed in good communication. When I went to pick them up, both Patti and her husband had many great stories of their time watching the dogs.

Alyssa took great care of my dog, Luna! She is very knowledgeable about caring for dogs and is really patient. Luna seemed very happy to stay with her and I would feel comfortable having her there again.

As usual, Colleen went above and beyond to keep Shasta safe and happy.

Amanda was very accommodating and flexible! It was our first time leaving Oso alone with anybody but Amanda and her family made sure he felt at home. We Would definitely let Oso come back! Thank you 😊

Gina and her girls are wonderful!! They were all so sweet and kind to Zoey and took excellent care of her! She seems a little sad to be home and I know she is already missing them ♥️ Thank you so much!! It was so nice to enjoy our vacation knowing Zoey was so well cared for 💕 Thank you for the photos also!!

Alma had such a blast with Pranavi and the other pups that were there during her stay! She seemed so happy in all the pictures Pranavi sent. Thank you Pranavi!

We could not be happier with the care Greg gave our very energetic young Aussie! He walked her at least twice daily and sent many pictures every day to let us know how she was doing. We are grateful she was with such a caring dog sitter.

Minna and Jason took great care of Buster again for his second visit. I appreciated the updates and pictures they sent. Buster had a great time at their house and he will definitely be back.

Deborah surpassed my expectations for taking care of my dog while on vacation! My dog has separation anxiety and tends to not eat when I go on vacation, causing her to lose weight she cannot afford to lose. Deborah took excellent care of her. She sent photos and updates which helped me to relax and enjoy my vacation. Deborah has a calm manner and my dog seems to feel very comfortable with her. When I picked her up at the end of the week I was so happy with her appearance and demeanor. She was in great shape! I highly recommend Deborah and I'm looking forward to having her take care of my dog in the future.

Divya is AMAZING. Where do I even start? First, she is extremely prompt in her response time about my booking inquiry. As soon as she saw my request she immediately asked me if / when I would be able to do a meet and greet. When I arrived at her house she greeted me at the door with a huge and friendly smile. Honey, my Vizsla, who suffers from velcro-dog-syndrome (a combo of anxiety, slow-to-warm attachment, with some adjustment d/o sprinkled in) appeared to be more relaxed than usual. I booked immediately upon my return home from the meet and greet. A week before my scheduled trip Honey got out and we could not find her for several days. When I informed Divya about the situation she was very accommodating and actually assisted me in getting info out on my dog. She followed up with me daily and when (3 days later) got our dog back was quick to assist me in rebooking Honey's stay. During the stay I was provided with updates on Honey, most of the time with cute descriptions and pictures. Anything Honey needed, Divya and her husband were quick to provide to her. They had a beautiful fenced in yard that allowed her to run around at her leisure with their pup w (who is a perfect energy match for Honey.) At the end of our stay we were informed that our return flight was canceled, and we would need to have Honey stay an extra day. Divya immediately told me that she would assist me in extending our stay and told us to just focus on getting home and not stress about our pup. (I mean come on guys how cute!) When we finally made it back to pick Honey up to go home she was excited but in no rush to leave. Typically she is already trying to jump in the car before I am able to say thank you but this time she was just hanging out at our feet without the sense of urgency to leave. Honey and I both cannot think of enough wonderful things to say about Divya. We are already planning another trip and are hoping Divya will be around to hang out with Honey while we are gone! We will 100% be back to stay with Divya!!

I highly recommend Traci! My dog suffers from so much anxiety when I leave her and she did so well under Traci's care. Traci is so gentle, sweet, and kind, she was patient with Zola and gave her so much love and attention. She kept me informed the entire time I was away from my pup, lots of pictures and updates. Thank you, Traci, for providing such good care for Zola!

Libby had a great stay with Amanda. It was also great to get pictures and messages throughout. Thank you, Amanda for giving us peace of mind Libby was well cared for while we were away.
