Dog Boarding in Montclair

“I was nervous about leaving my dog Dinah since she's getting older while I was away in Utah, but Karen took good care of her. She sent text messages letting me know how Dinah was doing and put up with my worrying!”

“Raya was great! She kept me updated while I was away with videos. My pup had so much fun playing with the other dogs and I felt very comfortable and secure with her staying there. I will definitely be using her again in the future!”

“Having been a puppy Mom for over a decade, finding the right sitter was always a challenge. One day I heard about Rover and read reviews about Digdem and given her excellent ratings and close proximity I made arrangements to leave my Brussels Griffon mix, Peachy, with her for several days. Digdem treated Peachy like one of her own. She sent me daily pics morning and night and replied to messages immediately. I'm so lucky to find Digdem and just hope she'll be available next time we need her. She's also incredibly sweet and a pleasure to speak to.”

“Val is a fantastic reliable dog sitter and took great care of our French bulldog over a long weekend. He was well cared for and she sent us multiple updates throughout his stay. I would definitely recommend anyone else to use her and we are looking forward to booking her again!”

“Very professional and caring.”

“Our pup had a good, relaxing stay and that was in no small part due to Estefania’s attentiveness, knowledge and caring for dogs. Starbuck can’t wait to visit again!”

About: A lifelong devotee of our four-legged friends, having shared my home with everyone from a majestic Chow Chow-Husky mix, a dignified Pekinese, to a spirited Dachshund. While Boxers hold a special place in my heart, my affection knows no bounds when it comes to breeds; I believe every dog has its unique charm. It's no surprise that my friend's pets often find themselves comfortably at my side, feeling the warmth of my genuine love for all canines. Though I don't hold professional training certifications, my life has been a rich tapestry of hands-on experiences with dogs of all temperaments. I am deeply committed to respecting the routines and training regimes established by their owners, rewarding good behavior to foster a well-balanced, happy dog. My approach to care is simple yet profound: I follow your lead, ensuring your dog's needs are met with patience, understanding, and lots of love. Special care needs? Consider them covered following all instructions, medication schedules, and appts necessary. My dog, Chico, a resilient soul I rescued as a newborn, has been my loyal companion for nearly 15 years. Despite his age, he exudes the playful spirit of a puppy I work from home and run errands a few times a week for less than a couple of hours. However, if a service is scheduled that requires my full attention, I will be sure to accommodate the pup's needs first. Caring for pets in any setting is centered on their safety, comfort, and happiness. I start with a thorough meet-and-greet to understand their needs and routines. In both my home and a client's, I ensure a safe, familiar environment, sticking to established routines to minimize stress. I meticulously manage feeding, exercise, and medication, providing regular updates to owners. Exercise, play, and companionship are key; I tailor activities to each pet's energy level and ensure they receive plenty of affection. Observant of their health and behavior, I'm prepared for emergencies, respecting the owner's home and maintaining cleanliness. My approach combines love, attentiveness, and ongoing education in pet care best practices, ensuring pets are well-cared for, happy, and thriving. I walk to local parks with my pup Chico who is a deaf/mute 14 lbs dachshund. I have an area by my home that is grassy and planted with large trees for extra shade when needed.

“Marc was excellent and he took such a good care of our dog Hugo! He kept us posted during Hugo’s stay and sent us pictures,took him for long walks around the lake… our dog seemed very happy and content! we will definitely use Marc again! Thank you!!”

“This was our first boarding experience. Alice was responsive and clear from the beginning. I felt very comfortable leaving our dog with them. Alice gave us status updates, photos and videos throughout our time away. We were happy that our pup was having a good time and being so well cared for. This made our vacation even better!”

“Stacy was amazing with our dog Sherlock, providing many updates and photos. She is very friendly and was quick to answer any questions that we had. When we picked up Sherlock he was relaxed and obviously very well looked after and given lots of love and attention during his stay. We would definitely use Stacy again to look after Sherlock.”

“I recently had to travel for Thanksgiving and needed someone to watch Chloe. So happy I came across Alex’s profile. His reviews were really good, and after meeting him we knew Chloe and him will be a good fit. We received updates while we were away along with photos. Chloe had the best time and will be using Alex again for the future. Thank you so much Alex for taking care of our girl!”
