Dog Boarding in Elmira

“Janet is great. She looked after our shih tzu for the afternoon while visiting the Corning Museum of Glass. She obviously loves pets, and her two dogs are very friendly.”

“Simply put, Kelly is the best. She took awesome care or our beloved lab, Lilly, providing detailed updates of care and daily adventures. She provided personalized exercise and stimulation for our rambunctious gal. We will never use another sitter again!”

“Kiersten was the best! Communication was excellent. Ziggy had a blast during her stay, and this always energetic pup was wiped out after! Definitely recommend if you are in need of a sitter.”

“Jade was great! George enjoyed his time staying with her and other furry friends! She was able to administer his meds, and gave him lots of love!”

“Tara was ABSOLUTELY wonderful. This was the first time leaving our dog with a sitter so we were nervous. Meeting Tara she put us at ease and I knew she was the right choice. She frequently updated us and sent pictures. She took such great care of our dog. We will definitely be booking with her again and recommending her to family and friends.”

“Adalia took great care of our very timid and scared dog. She was patient and gave Lily the room she needed to slowly warm up to her surroundings. Communication was great and we felt very comfortable leaving our dog with her. Would definitely rebook.”

About: I've loved caring for pets for family and friends over the years. Moved away from home so looking to keep that same experience around here. I'm generally off on Sundays and Mondays for work, and live close enough for potty breaks and I make my own schedule if enough notice is given. I have a fenced in yard which has been home to dogs the size of a Great Pyrenees down to a Yorkshire Terrier before. The home is large enough for multiple pets to have their space.

“Ollie loved hanging out with Jennifer! Every picture she sent, he just looks so happy! Ollie enjoyed having other friends a lovely neighborhood to explore. Thank you, Jennifer, Charlie, and Parker!”

“Lauren did a great job caring for my dog Stella! She was able to accommodate a last minute boarding request and sent daily pictures/updates. Stella came home happy and well taken care of.”

“What an amazing kind and gentle soul Joseph is my dog had a hard life before he came to me so he's difficult and this gentleman took the time to work with him and still accepted him even with all of his little challenges I appreciate all your help these past couple days look forward to rebooking with you if you'll have Buddy He took him on so many walks spent time trying to bond with him even though but he decided he was going to choose leash up and try and end those walks he did an amazing job thank you so much Joseph and rover.com😉”

“Victoria is GREAT she kept me updated sent photos. She provided excellent care of my sweet boy. She provided extra special care of him. I won't feel as guilty next time I have to go out of town. I highly recommend.”

“Our Arlo loved spending Christmas with Auntie Amanda and her family! Amanda provided a perfect home away from home experience for our boy. At her house he had other doggy friends to play with, lots of toys, cuddles, and exercise. She even took excellent care of him with his medication and feeding schedule. Thank you so much Amanda!”

“Hannah is one of the few people I would trust with my animal friends. She understands how to treat animals and has a lot of compassion and respect for them as fellow living beings. You can trust that she will give your pet a ton of love and affection. I'm sure that once she spends some time with your pet, they'll look forward to seeing her again soon.”

“Arianna was so amazing watching Granger for me!!! I was visiting the Fingerlakes with some friends and couldn’t bring Granger on a dinner cruise we wanted to do. Arianna was very sweet and wonderful, answering any questions I had over the phone before the trip, being flexible about drop off time when we were running behind, sending pictures of Granger while we were out, and allowing for a late pick up time after our cruise. She was always quick to respond and Granger was well taken care of! Would definitely recommend and will be messaging her again if I’m ever back in the area!”

“We were very happy with Amanda, we would definitely recommend her service. She was great with our dog and he enjoyed having friends to play with. ?❤️”

“We had an amazing experience with our Rover pet sitter! They were incredibly attentive, providing daily pictures and status updates, which gave us peace of mind while we were away. They handled any issues that arose with care and professionalism, always reaching out for advice when needed to ensure our two pups were comfortable. It was clear that they genuinely cared about our dogs' well-being. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for a reliable and compassionate pet sitter!”

“Jessica and Matt were very welcoming. They have a large fenced in yard. Jax was welcomed and I could see when I picked him up, he was definitely cared for.”

“In the past, Sabrina has watched my dog, Roofus. She was always on time and demonstrated a professional behavior while caring for him. She took him on multiple walks and played with him outside. Roofus had a great time with Sabrina and looks forward to when she comes over to watch him.”

“Hanna was great! My puppy came home tired and happy! She even sent us a photo of our pup playing with his new friends. Great first experience using Rover.”

About: A semi recent transplant from NYC/NJ area to upstate NY - Residing in Elmira for the past 3+ years. I have a lifetime of experience with pets in and have walked/cared for many others pets on a part time basis for many years - even while in the corporate world myself. I enjoy all breeds of dogs from puppies to seniors and even those with basic medical needs. I live an active/athletic life and love going for long walks, hikes, trails with my dogs/your dogs but also being a parent of two strong willed small dogs (chihuahua & mini pincher) myself - I know how a short brisk walk to get in all the sights & smells is just as enriching. Play time or time spent providing companionship is essential. I'm here to calm your nerves and focus on what is important for you & your fur family member while you are at work or away for a long weekend or vacation. I work primarily from home, however my flexible schedule ensures I have time and space to attend to your special furry family member. So wether it's a daily walk or sitting while you are away at work, an extended business trip or night away - your pet will also have a change in scenery & an enriching experience. Safety First and Fun 2nd. For those of you interested in my boarding services, we live on 7 secluded acres here in Elmira and take full advantage of that along with the beautiful rolling hills, trails and roads to take your dogs out for walks & stimulate their senses. And for those that have smaller dogs, and may prefer or require a modified outdoors experience I have a small fenced in dog run area that allows them to 'do their business'. I also have a large deck for the sun worshipers. I have a ring alarm on my front door. I bring all dogs in & out of the home via my garage to ensure all are properly leashed before going out for walks. I can crate dogs overnight if that is the preference otherwise the dogs will sleep overnight in my home office with pet cushions but the room would be gated off from the rest of the house during overnight hours. I feed on schedule & medicate upon schedules provided to me by the owner
