In-Home Dog Boarding in Washington, DC

Overnight care in my home, with a small group and personal attention.

When you travel, your dog stays in my home rather than a kennel. I follow your dog's routine for meals, medication, and walks, and send updates while you're away.

What In-Home Boarding clients say

“Bella often needs time to feel comfortable in new places, but she seemed calm, happy, and relaxed during her two-night stay with Stacy. Stacy sent photos while we were traveling, and seeing Bella look so settled gave us real peace of mind.”

“Our dogs love staying with Stacy when we go away. We feel confident that they will be well fed, get ample exercise, and be showered in love. It's great to have peace of mind when we travel — and Stacy provides that in abundance.”

Questions about In-Home Boarding

How is in-home boarding different from a kennel?

Your dog stays in Stacy's home with a small group, familiar routines, and space to play and rest safely. It is a real home, not a kennel.

Do you offer boarding in the Capitol Hill area?

Yes. Stacy boards dogs in her home in the Capitol Hill area. The exact neighborhood is shared after you get in touch.

Can my dog meet their boarding caregiver before I travel?

Absolutely. Every new dog starts with a meet-and-greet so we can make sure it is a good fit before anyone packs a bag.
