Dog Boarding Elmwood

“Meghan was awesome, she took great care of my dog and kept me updated throughout the stay, she's also a great photographer so you'd get nice shots of your pets, a 100% recommended.”

“Polina was so good with our puppy. This was the 1st time we had our puppy stayed at someone else’s home since we got her. And I am pretty sure our Puppy enjoyed it too. Thank you Polina.”

“It appears Nicholas enjoyed his time with Mary too much! He has been moping around the house getting used to a home without more people and pets. It was great receiving daily pictures and the care couldn’t have been more loving. I will definitely try to book with Mary whenever I travel in the future.”

Jacqueline T.

“Nina was a lifesaver! She was able to schedule a meet and greet, and book our dog for the weekend with short notice. She was very communicative. We received updates, and pictures, which was so appreciated. Our dog seemed very content during his stay with Nina. We are looking forward to using her again!”

“Suanny es muy cariñosa con Ginger, siempre. Ginger tiene un buen tiempo en su cuidado. Ella siente segura aunque tiene ansiedad por separación.”

“Maytte is a gem! We have two very shy dogs and weren’t sure how they would do staying with a new person. They loved her and warmed up to her at the meet and greet we set up. It made going away much easier. Maytte sent updates every day, with pictures and videos of the dogs. We could tell they were loved and well cared for. Maytte went above and beyond, buying them each a harness for walks and new toys. We’ve already booked her for our next trip.”

“Yakelin is a miracle worker! She was not only available last minute, but was expertly qualified to handle our 2 husky puppies! The most impressive part is that they came back even more well behaved than when we dropped them off! I wish I could leave 100 stars!!!”

Jeff C.

“Kiera took such wonderful care of my senior guy! I dropped him off at her home while I moved into my new place and I had such peace of mind knowing he was in good hands. Kiera sent me pics and videos of Chico playing and out on walks with her sweet senior girl! I will definitely bring Chico back to Kiera’s in the future.”

Melissa C.

“Loved her service, she was very detailed and very informative, looks like my Bruno had a blast. Also very flexible with my schedule!!! Definitely recommend.”

Manny L.

“Christine and her family were awesome with Apollo! I got daily pictures/videos and they were quick to respond to any questions I had about his stay. I will definitely be rebooking with them in the future!”

Sarah P.

“Georgianne was so responsive and easy to work with. She handled both of my cats with ease and was just an overall wonderful person. I would definitely recommend her!”

About: I'm an enthusiastic dog walker and sitter that has a passion for dogs and rescuing them. I have been involved in dog rescue and fostering in the Syracuse area for a number of years. I've cared for a number of my own dogs and cats from young to seniors. I've also been a foster parent to a number of dogs when rescues needed someone. I can handle the most challenging of dogs down to little babies and everything in between. Your dog will get plenty of love and attention when I'm around! I give all dogs the same love and affection I would give my own dog and see the importance of cuddle and buddy time along with good exercise. I show confidence when I'm with a dog so that they know there is trust with me from the beginning. I currently work part time, so have plenty of time to spend with your fur baby. I am always available after 3:00 p.m. during the week, before 8:00 a.m. or anytime on the weekends. I've got a very pet friendly home. I live in a single story, ranch house that has a fully fenced back yard. I do not have children at home that we would need to worry about and I'm very respectful if needed to go into a client's home. Safety and security are always at the forefront.

“The Huijin household was wonderful to work with, and they were outstanding with my baby boy. I would recommend them to anyone, and will definitely attempt to use them again in the future.”

“11/10. My dog had such a great time with Jose, it’s like she’s the one who had a vacation! Jose is extremely good about communicating and sending pictures, and it was a really nice experience to receive updates throughout my dog’s stay without needing to prompt for them. My dog had ample space to get her energy out, and with an additional bonus of having an active sitter to do activities with, there was never a doubt that she was receiving anything less than the care I’d provide her at home. I recommend Jose to anyone looking for a reliable sitter, a comfortable stay for their pet(s), and peace of mind—my dog is certainly looking forward to another stay!”

“This was the best dog watching experience we have ever had. Deborah sent so many photos and updates which was so reassuring and comforting to me. She clearly built a connection with our dogs and I know they were treated just as well as if they were at home. We will definitely be using this service again.”

Cory M.

“Staci watched our dog overnight and kept us updated with information and pics throughout the stay. She was very responsive to any communication from booking until pick up. We highly recommend!”

Jennifer & Matthew V.

“Both Gal and Eden made Rocky feel right at home. They did a great job keeping Rocky safe, happy and exercised. I would definitely use them again. They will be my first go to the next time we need a pup sitter.”

Donna G.

“My dog loves staying with Irina & her family! Irina is so nice, and I can tell my dog is treated great while I'm out of town. He gets exercise and attention, and she'll send pictures too! Thanks again!”

Katy T.

“Although my schedule was very indefinite Susan was flexible and I so appreciated this! Her care was excellent as evidenced by my dog bolting into her home as I dropped her off for her ‘vacation’…”

Ann C.

“Responds promptly to messages. She seemed caring. Sent pictures when asked. My dog looked happy and was calm when I picked her up.”
