Spring break is just around the corner! Whether you’re heading to the beach, hitting the slopes, or finally taking that much-needed relaxation trip, there is one big question every dog owner faces: "What do I do with my pup?"

While large commercial kennels are an option, they can be loud, stressful, and a bit "industrial." If you’re looking for a place where your dog gets more than just a cage and a scheduled potty break, in-home boarding is the way to go.

Why Choose In-Home Boarding?

The Comforts of Home: No cold concrete floors here. Your dog gets to lounge on actual furniture, nap in a quiet living room, and follow a routine that mirrors their life at home.
One-on-One Attention: Unlike big facilities with dozens of dogs, I focus on a select few. This means more belly rubs, personalized play sessions, and specialized care.
Less Stress (For Both of You!): Many dogs find the barking and chaos of a kennel overwhelming. My home provides a calm, safe environment that reduces separation anxiety.
Photo Updates: You’ll get regular "pup dates" and photos so you can see exactly how much fun your furry friend is having while you're away.

Preparation Checklist for Your Dog’s Stay

To make sure your pup has the best spring break ever, here’s what to pack:

Food: Enough food for the entire stay (plus a little extra) to maintain their regular diet.
Medications: Enough for the entire stay. Pack a couple extra days’ worth, in case your return is delayed
Treats: Any specific treats they enjoy.
Leash & Collar
Comfort Items: One or two items that smell like home, such as a favorite blanket.
