Welcome to Dog and Bone Home Boarding, where I offer an alternative to traditional boarding and kennels in Columbia, SC.

No longer do you have to worry about your pets while you travel! Or worse, cancel vacations altogether because you feel guilty leaving your pet behind or have had a bad experience with kennels or pet sitters. I can care for your pet in my home or yours, and offer several options so you can feel confident that your dog or cat is in loving, trusted and professional care when you are away from home.

Board your dog in a real home - MINE! That s right, your beloved pet will stay in my home, hang out with my dog and other guest dogs, snuggle on the couch, go on walks, play in the backyard, and whatever else he or she loves to do. There are no cages or confinement. Your dog becomes part of the family! The best part? I'll send updates and pictures and you can contact me by text, phone or email any time that you want to check in. I will be able to tell you exactly what your dog has been doing that day!

I limit the number of dogs I keep at any one time so yours is sure to get lots of individual attention. Since we are a close bunch, I insist on meeting all new dogs before the reservation to assess personality and ensure that your dog is a great fit for in-home boarding. The initial meet and greet also helps your dog feel more comfortable when you drop him or her off for the first time.

For cats and dogs that just feel more comfortable staying in their own home, I also offer dog walking and pet sitting home visits. During the initial meeting, I ll learn all about your pet and his or her routine. I customize a schedule that will best meet your needs. And again, you will get pictures and updates after every visit! I can handle all of your pet s needs while you work or travel!

I am fully insured and licensed, and certified in Pet First Aid and CPR.
