Your Dog’s Stress-Free Retreat

In-Home Boarding

Is your dog already a trained and well mannered-pup? Consider our in-home boarding services right here in Sacramento! Boarding your dog in a home offers a cozy alternative to traditional kennels. Because dogs are boarded on an individual basis, they receive personalized attention, familiar routines, and customized care. This can reduce anxiety for your dog in an unfamiliar place, and for you while you’re away from them.

Boarding is a good option for well-adjusted dogs that are comfortable being in new places. Dogs that experience separation anxiety, have fears of new places or people, or are reactive towards other animals or people will not be accepted for boarding as it can increase these fears and anxieties. To be boarded, dogs must be comfortable:

Behind a barrier and in a crate
Being alone up to 4 hours
With all human genders
– With cats
