Dog Boarding in Fish Creek, NY

“Tracy cared for my 2 cats for 8 nights. They fight a lot at home and I explained the situation to Tracy. She has worked with them and also gave us few pointers. Back home, they still fight but not that ferociously. Thanks Tracy!”

“Geoff is one of the very few people I will trust with Pepper & Daisy. The first time we used him we had such a good experience. We booked him for this past 4th of July long weekend. It told my husband to watch the dog’s reaction when they saw Geoff again. He said they both were very excited & happy to see him. Geoff spends time with the dogs walking & cuddling, sends updates, photos & videos. He is considerate of their specific needs & lets us know how he’s accommodating them. I highly recommend his services & will absolutely use him again when the need arises.”

About: With 5 years of dedicated experience in pet care, I provide a comprehensive and compassionate service tailored to the unique needs of each animal. My expertise extends beyond basic care to include specialized skills such as positive reinforcement-based puppy training, helping to establish good habits from an early age. I also have a deep understanding of senior dog care, including administering medication, providing gentle exercise, and creating a comfortable, low-stress environment. I have experience managing a variety of medical conditions, ensuring your furry family member is safe and well-cared for at all times. My goal is to be a trusted partner in your pet's health and happiness, providing peace of mind while you're away. Each morning starts with feeding, watering, and a potty break for the pets in my care. This is followed by a morning walk or playtime to get their energy out and start the day on a positive note. Throughout the day, I follow individual schedules, which might include specific feeding times for puppies or senior dogs, medication administration, or scheduled walks and potty breaks. The afternoon often includes another round of playtime or enrichment activities, such as puzzle feeders or training sessions, to keep their minds engaged. Evenings are typically quieter, with a final feeding and potty break before a relaxing wind-down. My weekly routine involves a bit more planning. I coordinate with pet owners to schedule walks, check-ins, or overnight stays. I also use this time to restock on supplies and keep detailed records of each pet's behavior, eating habits, and health. If a pet is in my care for an extended period, I might schedule a grooming appointment to ensure they're in top shape. My schedule is built around the needs of the pet, ensuring they receive consistent, loving care and that their owners have peace of mind. Caring for pets, whether on my own or a client's, requires a responsible and attentive approach to ensure their well-being. A fundamental aspect is providing a consistent routine, including scheduled feeding times with high-quality, species-appropriate food and fresh water that is always accessible. Regular exercise is crucial for both physical and mental health; this can range from daily walks for dogs to interactive playtime. Environmental enrichment, such as toys, scratching posts, and comfortable bedding, helps prevent boredom and destructive behaviors. It's also vital to maintain a clean and safe living space by regularly cleaning food and water bowls, litter boxes, and bedding. Beyond daily care, a thorough pet care plan includes regular grooming, such as brushing and nail trims, and staying up-to-date on veterinary care, including vaccinations and preventative treatments for fleas, ticks, and worms. For client homes, clear communication is paramount. It is important for me to obtain detailed instructions regarding the pet's specific needs, routines, medications, and any behavioral quirks, as well as emergency contact information. This holistic approach, combining routine care with attention to individual needs and a focus on safety and hygiene, ensures a happy and healthy life for any pet under my care.

“Ashley and her family were absolutely wonderful! They sent lots of great pictures and updates and were so sweet to our pup. Wish we lived closer, we would send him there more! But will be sure to go back when we are nearby again.”

“We are so thankful Stephanie could watch Marcy for us especially on last minute notice! It’s always good when Marcy comes home tired from playing, and I can tell she had a great time playing with Stephanie’s dogs. Thank you!!”

“Research & clinical shadowing outside of NY meant I had to find a pet boarder this summer for my cat. I wanted to make sure he was left in good hands; Tyler was an outstanding sitter for my Mango 🥭🐈 Tyler took care of Mango like his own: taking him to vet visits, making sure to play with him, & sending me frequent updates. Thank you so much Tyler!”

“We are very pleased that our dog was in caring hands. We regularly received photos and updates about her well-being. This was our first experience being apart from our pet, and we understand that it was unusual for her and possibly accompanied by some difficulties. But the team managed everything and showed great care. At the end of her stay, our dog even received some lovely gifts. We are very grateful for this and will definitely turn here again next time. Thank you so much! ❤️❤️❤️”

“Angel was just fantastic! Kind and attentive to my little beagle. The photos of Sadie wrapped up in a blanket warmed my heart! She was very flexible as well when our plans changed. We will definitely use her again!”

About: I've taken care of dogs for a long time. It started when I was young, probably around the age of 10, but of course I couldn't drive, so my mom had to help out. I have always had a love for animals, and I always will. I am currently a college student studying childhood education and psychology, along with playing soccer. That may sound like I have a pretty busy schedule, but since I live at home, it is not bad at all. I am also a substitute teacher, which allows me to choose when I work based on how my schedule looks for that given week. Pet safety is of the utmost importance to me. Families are relying on me to care for their beloved animals while away for a day or a few days. Playing outside or relaxing inside are all things I love to do, based on the dog's needs. Walks are always fun, too!

“Brooke was awesome! Responds immediately, very reliable and flexible. I would definitely use her again.”

About: I have grown up with both cats and dogs. I currently have two pups and a kitty. My friends and family consider me the go-to caretaker when needed. I prefer pets over most people 🐶🐱 I work full-time. I work in the Utica area on Mondays and Thursdays. I am available most times for drop-ins/walks on those nights, in the Utica area. My schedule will reflect my true availability. I will never accept a job that my schedule will not allow for, as pets deserve the best care! I live on almost 2 acres of land with fields around. I will always use a leash for all safety concerns until told otherwise. I have crate trained all of my dogs throughout my life, therefore feel comfortable crating but only if requested. I will request instructions as all pets have different needs. I will be sure to always follow instructions given.

“Our pooch stayed with Delaney for 2 nights. I know for sure he enjoyed his stay. First the big grin on his face that shown in the pics Delaney sent to me during his stay gave it away. Second he ate all his food that I packed. It usually takes him a day sometimes day and a night for him to feel comfortable enough to eat. Third he ran toward me at first when I arrived to pick him up then ran back toward her backyard in an effort to show me where he played while there. Delaney answered all of my questions pre-stay and anticipated some of my questions. 5 star stay and experience. Will definitely check with Delaney first when looking for care for our 4-legged family member.”

About: I grew up on a farm in Reseda, CA with as many as 9 dogs at 1 time and also goats, bunnies, guinea pigs, hamsters. I had 3 dogs as an adult but they have all since passed away at the ages of 16, 16 and 17 so yes I take very good of my animals. I currently have 2 cats, Sydnee and Maycee who are 1.5. I hope to get another dog someday but until then, I hope to take care of and love your dogs like they are my own. I have a flexible schedule and I am available during the day for walks/feeding and or evenings/weekends for vacation pet sitting on pretty short notice. I can provide loving care of your fur babies in your home and treat them like my own. You can always trust that they are in good hands.

About: Caring for animals comes natural to me, I have owned and cared for animals since I was a young girl 🐾 🐱🩷 your pets are in good hands :) I am currently a college student. My schedule is light, this gives me plenty of flexibility and time to dedicate to take care of your pets! I will follow any rules you have for me in order to properly take care of your dogs, normally in my clients homes I provide the exact services they need.

“She did amazing taking care of Archie like her own ! Will definitely use her again soon and HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!!”
