About Us
At Maddie’s House in Lake Stevens, WA, we specialize in low-capacity, in-home pet boarding for senior dogs and cats, those with medical needs, behavioral sensitivities, and more. We know how stressful it can be to leave a beloved pet behind—especially one who requires extra care and attention.
That’s why Maddie’s House Specialty Pet Boarding provides a calm, private, and personalized environment tailored to pets who need a little extra understanding. Whether your pet is aging, on regular medications and supplements, recovering from surgery, has acute or chronic issues, or simply thrives best in a quiet, low-stress setting, we’re here to help.
Our compassionate approach ensures your pet receives the gentle care and individualized support they deserve—because that’s exactly how we’d want our own furry family members cared for.
If they can't be home, there's Maddie's House!
Dog Boarding
Dog Boarding
Starting at: $125/night
Some dogs do best in a calm, quiet setting rather than a traditional kennel. Our space provides dogs with a familiar home environment, with cozy bedding, tons of attention and space.
Why Choose Maddie’s House for Your Dog?
We specialize in caring for dogs who may not thrive in a standard boarding facility, including:
Seniors – Gentle care and accommodations for older dogs.
Medication Needs – Including, oral, topical administration, as well as subcutaneous injections or other prescribed treatments.
Fearful or Anxious Dogs – Extra patience, understanding and a low-stress setting.
Post-Surgical Care – A calm environment for dogs healing from orthopedic or other procedures not requiring hospitalization.
To ensure personalized care, we keep our capacity low, boarding only a few dogs at a time. This way, your dog gets the attention, structure, and comfort they need while you're away.
Cat Boarding
Cat Boarding
Starting at: $80/night
While most cats thrive best in the comfort of their own homes, especially during stressful times, there are moments when specialized care becomes essential. At Maddie’s House, we provide a quiet, private, and cozy sanctuary where your feline companion can relax and feel secure under our attentive care.
Why Choose Maddie’s House for Your Cat?
We provide a quiet, low-stress space tailored to cats with special needs, including:
Seniors – Extra comfort, attention and patience for aging felines.
Medication Needs – Including, oral, topical administration, as well as subcutaneous injections or other prescribed treatments.
Diabetic Cats – Boarding available for well-controlled diabetics.
Post-Orthopedic Surgery Care – Gentle, attentive care during recovery, where regular monitoring, activity restriction and medication may be required.
To ensure a low-stress experience, we only board one cat at a time, or multiple cats only from the same household. This way, your feline companion gets the attention and calm environment they deserve.

FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions)
FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions)
Is Maddie's House a Medical Facility?
Is Maddie's House a Medical Facility?
While we’re experienced in caring for pets with special needs, Maddie’s House is not a medical facility. We’re happy to follow your veterinarian’s instructions for things like oral medications, topical treatments, and even subcutaneous injections if they’re part of your pet’s regular at-home care. However, we’re not equipped for intensive medical supervision or emergency care. Pets needing ongoing monitoring, IV fluids, or treatment for active medical conditions are best cared for in a licensed veterinary hospital.
Can you administer medication?
Can you administer medication?
Yes, we can administer oral, subcutaneous injectable, trans-mucosal, trans-dermal, or topical medications as directed by you & your veterinarian. We do not perform any tasks that require formal veterinary training or veterinary facilities to accomplish. Essentially, we are able to provide any care that you would typically provide in your home.
What do I need to bring?
What do I need to bring?
Please bring your pet’s food, any medications or supplements, and a few comfort items from home—like a favorite blanket or toy—to help them feel settled. Our intake forms cover most of the details we need, but if your pet has any special needs not addressed in the paperwork, feel free to include them in the “Other” section or share them with us at check-in. We want to make their stay as smooth and comfortable as possible!
What if my pet needs veterinary care?
What if my pet needs veterinary care?
Your pet’s comfort and safety are our top priorities. If your pet requires veterinary care while staying at Maddie’s House, we will take appropriate action to ensure they receive the care they need.
Minor Concerns: If your pet develops a non-emergency issue, we will contact you (or your designated emergency contact) to discuss the situation and determine the best course of action.
Urgent Needs & Emergencies: In the event of a serious medical emergency, we will transport your pet to a trusted veterinary hospital for immediate care. If we are unable to reach you, we will authorize treatment based on the level of care you’ve pre-approved. Depending on the nature of the emergency, we may not be able to travel to your preferred facility, and reserve the right to seek care based on proximity, wait times, road conditions etc., if deemed appropriate by our team.
How is Maddie’s House different from traditional boarding?
How is Maddie’s House different from traditional boarding?
Maddie’s House specializes in individualized care for pets that may not do well in a standard boarding facility for a variety of reasons.
We focus on pets who need extra attention, such as seniors, those recovering from surgery, or pets requiring medication.
We are strictly low-capacity, and indoor-only; your pet will be under close observation, and dogs will never be left unattended outside (cats are not given any outdoor access).
