Dog Boarding Genegantslet

“Steve did a great job making sure my dog was compatible with his services and other dogs before I left him for an eight day stay. We did a meet and greet and a practice overnight stay before our actual stay. During our boarding stay, Steve kept me updated with pictures and feedback. He is knowledgeable and truly cares about the the dogs that he cares for in his home. My dog returned happy and healthy. I will definitely use his services again and I recommend him to others needing daycare or overnight boarding.”

“Caterina did a great job caring for my two boys. She’s got space for walks and room inside for resting. I think the dogs enjoyed their visit.”

“Ashley and her family are wonderful hosts! Dublin always feels at home. I enjoy the daily updates and pictures. Knowing that Dublin is safe and happy in their capable hands is a great feeling 😀”

About: What sets me apart is the genuine love and personal attention I give every pet. After 15 years caring for my toy poodle, Ginger, I understand how much trust it takes to leave your beloved pet with someone else. I provide patient, dependable, and personalized care while making sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, happy, and loved. As someone who is currently unemployed, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate plenty of time to pet care. I can work around your pet’s routine and provide reliable, attentive care while you’re away. I provide a safe, calm, and loving home where pets can feel comfortable and cared for. I follow each pet’s routine, including feeding, walks, playtime, potty breaks, and plenty of attention. I treat every pet like family and make sure they receive the patience, love, and care they deserve.

About: i grew up living with 4 dogs and multiple litters of puppies. i love grooming my dogs, training them and cuddling with them. my old landlord had a dog that he never took care of so i took care of her everyday until she sadly passed away. i have two dogs i take them out every 2-3 hours. i sometimes take them to fields so they can run around and play for a few hours. i make sure my pets have food and water at all times. i give them baths and clip they’re nails when needed and give them lots of love and play with them. i do have a crate but only use it when i need to.

“Dana was AWESOME! We have two finicky border collies that don't warm up to just anyone and need a lot of mental and physical activity - thus, we have very high standards for their care. Dana exceeded our expectations! Dana was kind and patient with them, and have them plenty of activities for their brains (e g., puzzle toys), and bodies (e.g., plenty of walks). She was very engaged with them and even worked commands with them for added mental stimulation! Our dogs came back very happy and well cared for. We will definitely be boarding with her again, and can't recommend her enough - ESPECIALLY if you have timid or dog/people selective dogs. Dana is a very conscientious and responsible dog owner and sitter. She is also very communicative and will send plenty of updates and photos.”

About: You no longer have to worry about finding a trustworthy and responsible dog watcher. My name is Ellie V and I am 28 years old. I’ve been watching dogs for at least 17 years of all sizes. Not afraid of any breed. I currently have two dogs, one is a Rottweiler and a French Bulldog. I will give your pet the best care you can imagine while you’re gone. At this time, I am free Monday-Friday at any time. That could change, so message me for an accurate response. I will not walk dogs after dark. I can drop-in or walk your dog during the day at almost any time. I do not walk dogs after dark, but will do drop-in visits after dark.

“Shelby was great! We had a relatively last minute booking and she was flexible and accommodating. She’s very on top of different needs and sent us pictures updates. Thank you so much, Shelby!”

“Megan and Tebow were great! We got photos and updates every day. Drop-off and pickup were easy peasy and our pup (who has some special needs) was well cared for. We would be happy to board her with Megan again!”

“Gil was an absolutely wonderful dog sitter. Our gigantic and sometimes nervous dog, Stella, was very well cared for and Gil sent lots of pictures of their lovely walks together. Gil met with us in advance so he could start to get to know Stella; he is obviously a caring and gentle person and she got lots of love while she was with him.”

“What can we say.... a great communicator, a great care giver, and a caring person. We couldn't be happier with the care given to our fur babies.”

Raymond H.

“Erin was absolutely amazing. She made us feel so at ease leaving our fur baby with her. She always made sure to send pictures and updates during our trip. Murphy had a great time playing in their yard and going on walks. I would definitely use them again to watch Murphy!”

About: I am just starting to my fourth career, playing with your companion. I recently retired from teaching sustainable development at UAlbany. I now spend my days outside with hairy friend Herman. I picked up my first stray, Bandit, at 9. I have had a at least one dog since then, I am now 63. All from shelters or strays. I also did doggie foster care too. Known to be gentle and friend of the furry ones. I start each day with a morning meander across the 25 acres on a dead end road. Your companion will be well exercised, loved and cared for as long as they get along with my 14 year old hairy friend Herman, who lets cats eat from his dishes. He runs the place when it comes to house rules. He does not have viscous bone in his body. After three careers and global travel I am recently retired. My days are spent gardening, walking, sitting on the porch, listening to music, etc. I am rarely gone more than a few hours as Herman, my four legged friend, needs special care at 14 years old. I am typically up before dawn, no dog or alarm necessary. My day typically begins with me waking predawn and greeting the new day with my hound Herman on the 25 acres we cohabitate. Most is abandoned agriculture returning to forest for 35 plus years that is bisected by a small babbling brook. Breakfast is then served before returning outside. In climate weather I am outside more than 70% of my day outside. At 14 he chooses to stay in sometimes. Your companion will be free to make their own choice too. My life ambition is to nurture life. I have cared for pets since I was born as my family had cats. There is a fenced area that includes four shaded area. There will be plenty of water, including a baby pool for play as well as sprinklers. This area is shares two fences lines with my garden, has direct access to a walk out basement, and is fully visible from my porch. The dogs will have near 24/7 personal attention and care. I live sustainably. There are no chemicals in my lawn or garden. I have an enclosed porch that in the summer is open air, but no steps to escape. Only with your permission would I walk a guest off leash. Before walking them off leash I will need feel 100% confident they respond to command when other distractions are present. Again with your permission I would take your friend to a fenced in dog park visit as a trial run. Herman, my housemate, is a happy healthy 14 year old he is my best reference. He also has final word on all guest of all species. About an 1/2 acre is fenced with direct access from the house through the basement door. It includes shaded doggie lounges, a baby pool in the summer, toys galore, and lots of attention as the space is adjacent to my garden and the covered porch. It has the capacity to be divided if unruly dog needs to be isolated or there are little ones that just need time away from the bigger ones. Indoors, dogs are free to roam in the basement and first floor. If they are cage trained I can accommodate that. The two beds are off limits. To prevent misunderstanding with bed loving dogs I will keep my guest room. Both the porch and the living room couches are fine. Little ones may use chairs too. The house is really set up for Herman’s comfort and safety. The 32x10 covered front porch is a favorite of Herman and all his visiting friends. Your hairy friend will be delighted by this feature too. One more thing, the hardwood floors are currently covered in rubber “yoga mats” as Herman can not cope with slippery floors. There are also many large dog beds that Herman is happy to share. Opps, where are our manners; welcome to our slice of Paradise!😊

“Solena was very good with my fussy dogs. They came home happy and relaxed.”
