Dog Boarding Canaan

“We feel in great hands whenever we leave our dog with John. While we're away he stays in touch with photos and texts and when we return it's always clear that she's had a wonderful time. Thank you, thank you, John!”

“Mary Ann boarded/took into her home my Daizy, a 12-year-old toy poodle, while I had surgery. The best recommendation comes from Daizy who kept looking for Mary Ann after Daizy came home! My little was pampered, cared for and spoiled and I couldn’t have been more pleased. Highly recommend!”

“Kristina and Jordan took such amazing care of my pup while I was away. Kristina and Jordan treated her with so much love, and sent many pictures and videos during the stay. I’m definitely an anxious pet parent, but their care actually allowed me to relax knowing that she was in the best hands possible and having a great little vacation of her own. I couldn’t recommend them more. Thank you guys so much!”

Tess H.

“Karina always does a wonderful job of taking care of our big, shy pup. She has made him feel so comfortable in her home, and now when we take him to stay he runs to greet her, so he has really adopted her into his family! Also, Jared has been fantastic in encouraging Sancho to feel relaxed. We can't thank them both enough for giving us peace of mind for our dear one, when we have to be away.”

“My dog didn’t want to come home! My communication and logistical coordination with Candice was super easy, accommodating, and professional. She took excellent care of my loved one. She is great and highly recommended.”

“Maria is a great sitter. She truly loves dogs and it reflects in the care she gives to them. Our dog was so happy being able to sit in a lap and enjoy playing with the other dogs. She came home happy and healthy thanks to Maria’s care!”

Nancy B.

“We Love Caroline! She sent the sweetest update pics and was lovely to work with. Easy communication, good vibes all around. I’ll def be contacting her again for hangs with my pup.”

Pepper M.

“We are so grateful for Philippe! He watched our dogs for an extended amount of time and we couldn’t be happier with the service we received and neither could our dogs. Our Goldendoodle was very anxious but due to Philippe dog handling he’s come back much more relaxed and easier to handle. We will continue to use Philippe as long as he’s available snd we highly recommend him to anyone and everyone who wants peace of mind that their dogs will be taken care of with love and care!”

Kendra M.

“MJ was fantastic with my baby! She was a referral from a close friend so I felt really at ease dropping remi off for a long weekend. She took time to help remi warm up to a new environment (separation anxiety), sent lots of pics and stayed in communication every day. I picked up a happy and tired pup! We’re definitely booking again, see you soon!! 💝🐾🦴”

“Lynsey was very friendly and responded to messages quickly. It was good to know she has so much training and experience w/ animals. I recommend to anybody to have lynsey care for your dog.”

“Robin always take wonderful care of our dog while we are traveling. She treats our sweet girl like she is part of her family. It's such a great comfort to know our dog is comfortable and happy while we are away.”

Shelley R.

“We had SUCH a wonderful experience with Meghan & Sean—and so did our pup! Our 3yo dog is nervous around new people and can be reactive. We were worried about how she would do staying with a family with young kids. Meghan & Sean listed to our worries and helped up brainstorm ways to put our dog at ease. And it worked like a charm! We were so grateful to the extra time Meghan & Sean spent to make both the humans and the doggo feel positive about the plan. We loved getting pics of the crew on their daily walks. It was also really really REALLY nice to see how much love Meghan and fam have for all animals, and how positive they were about our sometimes tricky dog. Our dog had a great week and we will definitely return to Meghan & Sean for future doggy needs, whether it is another week or a shorter visit. Highly recommend, zero notes!”

Gabrielle B.

“We just got our puppy about a month ago and was very worried about what we do with him for our already planned trip! Jaylese was very responsive. We booked a meet and greet and I was already so comfortable leaving my pup with her! We received daily pictures and updates!! I am soooo happy we went with Jaylese! She will be used for our pup in the future!!! Thank you for taking great care of our pup ❤️”

Tiffany P.

“Jillian was a great sitter! We were nervous about leaving our pup with someone new but she was great. We checked in frequently and she was quick to respond with updates and photos!! We will be booking again!!”

Meagan M.

“Taylor was SO loving with our dogs, so wonderful to interact with, and fed our dogs some of the fancy raw diet food her dogs have. It was a holiday treat for our pups!”

Sarah H.

“My dog never gets left with anyone because I know how nervous she gets but we couldn’t bring her on a trip and Briana and her family were a perfect match for her. Coco was used to lots of attention with my kids and she loved it there. She was well cared for and I had complete trust she was in good hands. Thanks Briana!”

Kamile B.

“Willow had a great time with Matt and his dog! He sent pictures and brought her home to me all tired out. Exactly what I wanted. I will definitely be using him again!”

Jacqui P.

“Sophie definitely enjoyed her stay with Carlee and family. I was anxious about leaving her for eight days as she had not been away from me since moving to Hudson four years ago during the pandemic. Carlee was quick to answer my texts and reassure me that Sophie was adjusting well. I will definitely use her again!”

Sally H.

“Kevin was amazing in every aspect of watching Nora. We got tons of pictures and incredible levels of communication. We plan to book with him again and could not be happier.”
