About Carly & The Big Dog Little Dog Lodge
Voted as TOP 20 in Best Doggy Daycare & Boarding in Best of Western Washington 2014 & 2015

My name is Carly, and I started doing in-home dog boarding in March of 2013. Slowly but surely I began taking on new clients and have discovered an incredible passion for caring for others' pets. After opening a very busy daycare and boarding facility from 2017-202

0, we decided a larger facility would better allow us to serve our clients. After a brief hiatus (and a world pandemic) we’ve found the perfect place to call home for our new chapter of Big Dog Little Dog, the Lodge. Our facility is perfect for dogs of all ages specifically higher anxiety dogs, dogs with injuries or those needing specialty attention. My entire life I have always lived with dogs and being able to also take compassionate and loving care of other families beloved pups, is only that much better! Professionally, I have over 8 years of Pet Industry knowledge, working in Dog Toys, Pet Food and Nutrition as well as working with numerous Pet Food Companies and Toy distributors. I also had the pleasure of being in Customer Service so I was responsible for not only providing excellent service to my customers, but also to help resolve a wide variety of behavioral / nutritional issues. Services we offer:
Dog Boarding (overnight) in our facility
Day Boarding – 7am-6pm

Our family not only welcomes your pup into our new pet lodge, but we whole heartedly love them. My family is exceptionally patient and gentle with animals and we have a great respect for the anxiety that might come with a doggy in a new situation. Our facility has 1200+ sq feet of indoor space with ample room for play as well as access to our 7 acre property if you add on our walking service to your lodge package . In our down time you can expect your pup to snuggle with us wherever we shall rest. There are tons of opportunities for quiet time and play time as well as tummy rubs. With our boutique style lodge experience, our smaller numbers allow for a more personalized experience. I have yet to have a client say their dog didn’t go home happy and well cared for. If you have a pup that enjoys their nap time, there is plenty of peaceful quiet time for them to rest as well. Please do not hesitate to inquire about my accommodations and/or availability.

🐾 Adopt me? Foster me? 🐾

Hi, I’m Sweetie! 💛
✨ 1-year-old Pittie with a heart of gold
✨ Spayed, vaccinated, & full of playful energy
✨ Super trainable & loves to learn

📍 Found tied to a fence in Federal Way, I’ve been waiting for my second chance in boarding since January 2024. 🏡

💔 I urgently need a foster or forever home! I’d thrive as an only pet and with older kids. I can be a little timid around men but warm up with time, love, and patience. 💕

Let’s make forever happen! 🐶
Reach out to us to learn more and to meet this lovely gal.
