Dog Boarding in Gages Lake

Kim did an excellent job with our 2 pups. They had a great time hanging out and running around her large fenced yard. She gave them lots of snuggles and they looked very comfortable in her home.

Having never needed a dog sitter (family loves to take them), I was understandably wary. But Jacob had such great reviews and lived about 8 minutes from me - so I figured I'd meet him. First, he's lovely. Warm, empathetic, and so, so good with dogs. His home is gorgeous, and there are dog beds and toys everywhere. And it DOES NOT SMELL. I didn't know it at the time, but he only takes dogs of a certain size - little - so my two were not forced to defend their honor with big dogs. (I don't know about you, but my dogs could care less about little dogs - it's the big ones they want to take on.) Both of my dogs take medication, which wasn't an issue - and one of them is geriatric - blind, deaf and with vertigo. Jacob handled him better than I ever have. While I was gone, I got lots of pictures and videos, texts about the fun they were having - and unexpectedly, an interest in how I was doing. The texts/messages were just so, so heartfelt and special. I was gone for two days, and honestly, my dogs wanted to stay with him, I think. Finally, true story - before we decided to hire him, Jacob asked if my kids and I wanted to come over for a "meet and greet." We did, and obviously, decided he was perfect. We left feeling secure in our decision. As we were getting in the car, a couple with an older son who were walking their large dog across the street spoke to us. The woman said, "Is Jacob going to watch your dogs?" I told her that he was. She said, "they're very lucky. He's a hidden treasure." Selfishly, I want him to remain hidden. But he deserves to be found by as many people as possible. I can't thank him enough.

We absolutely LOVE booking with Chisato! She sends photos and videos regularly and has been very flexible with times when needed. Plus our baby loves her!

As a first time user, I was a little nervous but I hit the Rover jackpot when I found Mary & Norm! They are wonderful people and took amazing care of Tink! The daily updates and pics were so appreciated and showed how much fun Tink was having. She can’t wait to visit them again!

Kelsey was great! She had a strong affection for our dog and was very attentive, making sure our dog was comfortable, was fed well and got a lot of exercise. We definitely recommend her and look forward to another opportunity to have our dog stay with her.

That was my first time leaving my dog and I felt a great deal of anxiety looking for a proper place for my dog to stay. Angela and Dave took great care of my dog Betsy for the whole week. They are super responsive and kept me updated daily with texts and videos. I had to flight back in a bad weather and was not sure if my plane will arrive on time. Angela was very accommodating and flexible and assuring that she would take care of my dog until I arrive, even if it would be a day later. That put me in peace and I was able to travel without stress. Betsy was well taken care of, she enjoyed playing with other dogs and I think she was missing her friends when we got her home:)) . I was very comfortable leaving Betsy with Angela and Dave, and highly recommend their service.

Norma took great care of our 14-year-old labradoodle for 12 nights while we were out of town. The first few days I was anxious about how he was doing but she put my mind at ease with texts and pics in response to my queries. We will definitely be boarding him with Norma again in the future when the need arises!

Truly amazing! I was constantly receiving text and pictures about my Joy I am very happy with how she was treated. This was my first time leaving my puppy, and I felt very comfortable knowing my joy was safe and taken care of very well, I would definitely recommend.

Swagata is a phenomenal sitter. She went above and beyond caring for Lady! I love all the videos and pictures she shared everyday! I had no reservations about leaving my furbaby in her care and would absolutely book again!

Elisa went above and beyond caring for Sparky. She was concerned that Sparky wasn’t eating enough, so she even cooked chicken for her. Elisa sent photos and updates throughout Sparky’s stay. We know Sparky was given special TLC and will definitely use Elisa again. We’re so glad we found her on this site!

Jennifer is reliable and incredibly trustworthy! I can’t say enough good things about her :) I always know my dog, Coco is in good hands when she is with her!

Kelli was fantastic. Very friendly and professional. Provided great care and experiences for my dog. Also sent updates and photos, which were very much appreciated. Easy flexibility with drop-off and pickup. Highly recommend.

Monica was great! Had some flight delays and she was very accommodating. Lina loved playing with her dogs where were very friendly with her from the get-go.

This was the best stay Sammy has had. He wasn't stressed when I picked him up. He seems to have made himself right at home. I appreciated Stella's updates and photos Would recommend Stella to everyone.

Our dog took an immediate liking to Dee. She's a very good sitter. We especially appreciated the frequent texts and pictures Dee sent us while we were gone. We recommend her highly!

These past two and a half years I’ve been blessed to have Debbie and Tom look after my senior English Bulldog with special needs whenever I had to go out of town. It’s been a comfort to know that my Daisy gets lovingly looked after day and night while I’m away by such a caring couple. I’ve gotten daily photos and updates, and they even take my Daisy for her favorite car and stroller rides around the block! They are so patient too in following directions for her special diet and medications. I also love that they’ve made Daisy so comfortable with their own fur babies and now Daisy has a special friend in their cat! That was a shock to me given Daisy and her anxieties. She always comes back home to me with such a calmer demeanor, like Debbie and her family eased away her anxieties. Thank you so much for being so lovely to my Daisy! I’m so happy I found you two and a half years ago. You’ll continue to be Daisy’s home away from home. We are so grateful and lucky. 🐾 💕

Anna took good care of our two dogs while we were away for a long weekend. They came home happy and rested. We will hope she can sit for them again in the future. :)

Tessa and her husband Chet did an AMAZING job taking care of my pups! I appreciated that they initiated the meet and greet conversation because it told me they were serious about making sure they were the right fit for their clients. My pups, Coop and Zoey, instantly felt comfortable in Tessa’s house and yard, and I felt quickly at ease with leaving my babies with her! I was relieved to go on vacation knowing my pups were in safe hands. We’re looking forward to booking with Tessa again in the future!

Deidre was so great in taking our four pups sort of last minute for five days and sent photos each day of them having a blast at her place. Experience was terrific and we can’t wait to have the pups stay with her again.
