Doggy Day Care in Ballston

About: I’ve had two dogs that I raised from their puppy to senior years so I have experience with dogs in any age. I have experience giving medication and know some doggies love having a routine that I can help maintain to keep them happy and comfortable! I’m currently job hunting so I have plenty of time to watch and help care for your doggies while also giving them daily walks! I have a big fenced yard for them to run around in and multiple streets I can take them for walks on. I will provide a bed, toys and treats and make sure they always have clean fresh water.

“Larissa and the littles were very gracious with Ash exploring a new home and humans. He came home happy and ready to nap from such an exciting day.”

“I have a Great Dane puppy that has stayed with Laura and her husband several times and they have always taken excellent care of him. Laura always sends me pictures pictures during his stay. They have a labrador named Riley, and my puppy just loves him to pieces. I am leaving the country for a week next month and my puppy will be boarded with Laura. I have ZERO concerns leaving him there as I know he will be in great hands. If you need a sitter or a place to board your dog, I highly, highly recommend them! ”

“Amazing experience!!! This was the first time we had ever used Rover or had a dog sitter, so I was a bit worried. Remo is a 4 month old puppy and very mischievous. Zuri sent texts, photos and videos, so I could see what a great time Remo was having at her home. I would definitely book again with Zuri and totally have piece of mind that Remo is in good hands.”

“I was a little nervous to leave my dog Lucy with a sitter because she is elderly and has special needs. Jennifer did a great job and I could tell that Lucy was relaxed and happy when I picked her up. Jennifer is a lovely person and I will not hesitate to leave Lucy with her again.”

Gail S.

“Our German Shepherd is absolutely thrilled when we tell him we are going to Matt's! It's one of his favorites communications! That right there says a lot about Matt. From the human perspective, he goes above and beyond. He has helped us in emergency situations, and on holiday weekends, with a crazy wedding schedule. We are grateful for Matt and his remarkable gift of working with dogs!”

“Gayle was so good with our girls. She helped them get through their nerves upon our departure and was wonderful throughout the even after some displays of poor manners early on. She sent pictures and updates that kept our minds at ease. Her setup is great for the dogs and they made themselves comfortable. Can't say enough great about her!”

About: Ever since a child I have had an undeniable bond with animals. I’ve worked with all types, birds, horses, dogs, cats, livestock, exotic animals, you name it. Growing up my family was always pet people and they’d say I’m more of a pet person than them all! As a previous rancher, I have tons of experience with medications, veterinary care, and pet care for all species. As an entrepreneur I have all the time in the world for my pets and yours! My schedule is almost always free and ready for you! I own a beautiful 6 year old working line German shepherd, so I specialize in high-energy and protective breeds. I understand their drive, structure, and need for leadership. My goal is to keep your dog mentally fulfilled, exercised, and emotionally secure while maintaining the training and routine you’ve built. I also have experience with low energy dogs, training puppies, and even whelping litters! Pet care is my full-time job, so I have a very flexible schedule and can provide consistent attention and care. I’m available for boarding, drop-ins, and walks throughout the week, including weekends, with plenty of time for play, exercise, and companionship. I focus on personalized, attentive care in a calm, clean, and secure environment. I maintain your pet’s routine, monitor behavior and health, and provide mental and physical enrichment. Owners receive regular updates and photos for complete peace of mind.

“Tess was available with short notice. She was able to wrangle my energetic dogs through their first babysitting experience. They were with her for a couple of hours and were extremely comfortable. Thanks, Tess!”

“This was my first time using Tawyna & John P "Clay" for doggy day care, and I couldn’t have been more pleased with the experience. Clay was professional from the start and always prompt in responding to my questions, which I really appreciated. When we arrived, he took the time to give me a tour and patiently answered all of my questions. The multiple levels of fenced kennel runs with bark chips were very well done, and it gave me such peace of mind knowing that both of my Weimaraners were safe and secure. Most importantly, my dogs had a great time! They came home happy and happily worn out at the end of the day, which says everything. I’m so thankful for the care Clay provided and would absolutely recommend him to others looking for a safe, well-run place for their dogs.”

“Mickenzie was absolutely wonderful with my new puppy, Salem-Blue! From our first interaction, it was clear that she’s a natural with animals, and she went above and beyond to ensure Salem-Blue was comfortable, happy, and well cared for. Her communication was excellent, updating me with texts and adorable photos throughout the day. It was such a relief to know my puppy was in such loving and capable hands. I highly recommend Mickenzie to anyone looking for a trustworthy and attentive pet sitter. Thank you, Mickenzie, for being so amazing!”

“Best day ever . Shes a great sitter and he had so much fun . He's only four months old 70 lbs, never been around other dogs and she was able to get him acquainted and He made new friends, and she was definitely capable of handling a new excited Dog, meeting other dogs. If I ever come up here again, I will be using her every time.”

“Megan did a great job sitting with Duke in our house and kept in touch during her stay with texts and photos. We are planning a trip later and will use Megan again for house sitting.”

About: Neighbors, friends and family have relied on me to take care of their pets for nearly two decades. My attention to detail never goes unnoticed and I am confident in my abilities to comfort your pet(s) by making them feel special and safe! I have experience with all kinds of creatures — dogs, cats, reptiles, rodents/ferrets, fish, and waterfowl, at all stages of life. Yes, even your beloved seniors. I’m a parent/caregiver to a child with disabilities and while that does not affect my ability to care for animals, it can limit some of my time due to my child’s day-to-day needs, appointments, etc. I update my calendar accordingly to reflect my availability. With that said, most of our appointments are virtual or in-home and I am a stay at home mom so I still have plenty of time for pet care. I have a large fenced in yard for dogs and I am always nearby supervising. I allow pets on furniture and treat them just like my own when I’m watching pets in my home. Instructions regarding potty breaks, feeding, kennel time, medications, etc., are always followed if given.
