BEHAVIOR AND TRAINING
PUPPY BOARDING
Trusted boarding care ◆ Puppy needs ◆ Professional trainer's home
Traveling while raising a young puppy can be understandably nerve-wracking. After all, a puppy's first few months are a critical period of development where every new experience truly matters. Puppy needs are special – their boarding care should be special, too. That's why I offer a first-class boarding experience curated thoughtfully for puppies under 6 months old.
As a professional dog trainer with in-depth knowledge of puppy development, I'm committed to providing a safe, nurturing environment packed with positive experiences. Your puppy will live with me in my home, receive dedicated care as the only guest, and enjoy oodles of human companionship and love. Your puppy's special boarding experience may also include:
-
Socialization outings (meeting people and friendly dogs)
-
Novelty experiences (objects, sounds, surfaces)
-
Maintaining consistent potty, napping, and meal schedules
-
Fetch, tug, and other intentional social enrichment
-
Light body handling activities
The specifics will depend on your puppy's age, socialization and novelty experiences so far, and the length of the stay. Belly rubs are unlimited, basic manners training is not included.

1
Puppy Boarding Assessment
After you complete the request form below, I'll get in touch about booking the 30-minute boarding assessment at my home (located in 60646). During this meeting, your puppy will have an opportunity to build positive associations with me while you and I discuss your puppy's boarding care plan. We'll decide together if it's a good fit, and if so, book the stay!
2
Trial Day
I may offer you the option of booking a trial day ahead of your planned stay, if you like and if my schedule allows. A trial day is approximately 3-5 hours during the day, not overnight. A trial day is not required and might not be offered.

Puppy Boarding Stay
Your puppy will live in my home, be cared for like family, and have a blast! Each stay includes tailored puppy experiences, memory foam dog beds, fuzzy blankets, couches, play and games, enrichment opportunities, fenced-in yard, and unlimited cuddles and smooches. I'll send text updates with photos and videos throughout the stay.
