Doggy Day Care Lakemont

“This was a wonderful experience! Lovely clean home with open dog area space inside with lots of dog beds. Ksenia is so friendly. Even my nervous, shy dog went up to her after a few minutes. They took great care of my two larger dogs and sent many pictures which is so appreciated.”

“Crystal runs a wonderful daycare! She is knowledgeable, caring and dedicated. She takes time to send updates throughout the day. Crystal is also a talented trainer, and takes the time to practice with dogs throughout the day on small obedience lessons. Her dogs are awesome as well with all sorts of energy levels. I always feel at ease that my pup is well-looked after, and is having a grand ole time during my workday!”

“Vanessa is awesome. She was so loving with Riley and sent pictures and updates throughout. As soon as I met her I could tell that she would take great care... extremely warm and kind. I felt totally comfortable with her as Riley's sitter!”

“Akiko did a great job watching my young puppy, communicated well on how my dog was doing, and responded promptly. I’ve already scheduled another stay.”

“Dot had a terrific first day of care with Jaime. I got updates, pictures , she had time outside before it got too warm + snacks. She also SLEPT and came home tired which is always a perk. Much appreciated Jaime”

“Michael is a terrific dog-sitter who took care of our Viszla, Isla, in a very loving and caring way. We were very impressed! We loved the text updates and photos that we received throughout the day. It made us feel very reassured that Isla was having a good time and felt comfortable in an unfamiliar environment. Michael is extremely responsive to messages, and we can’t wait to book with him again soon. It is such a relief to find somebody who we know will take good care of our (Velcro) Viszla girl. Thank you Michael!”

“Ivonne is such a warm and gentle dog mama to her own dog and those under her care. She understands the nuances of caring for a senior dog. I couldn’t have asked for a better stay for our senior dog. He came home calm and relaxed.”

About: Most people call me Josh. Dogs have always been my favorite animal and I've lived with them for most of my life. I am recently dog-free and I miss having dog energy in my house. I've raised two dogs through basic obedience to adulthood, one with a class, and one largely on my own. I am personally a big believer in the methods described in The Art of Raising a Puppy, because I have had excellent results with their techniques, but will of course prioritize whatever approach is preferred by owners. I am happy to help reinforce any basic obedience your dog may be working on, as well as senior dogs. I am comfortable with a wide range of dog breeds, sizes, and temperaments. Highly reactive dogs are not my favorite, but "highly reactive" can be subjective, so I will consider such dogs on a case by case basis. I am happy to work with dogs of varying activity levels, but extremely high-activity dogs will also be considered on a case-by-case basis. I am currently working from home and am available for dropoff in-home daycare most weekdays and dog boarding (including weekends). My schedule for my dog was three walks a day (morning, afternoon/dinnertime, bedtime) so that is what I'm used to, but I am happy to work with clients to discuss their routine and work with them to agree on an experience that fits their and their dog's needs. I currently have no other animals in my home, so your dog will get my full attention as needed. I don't have a fenced yard, but I am in a residential neighborhood with a good-sized park a block away. I am reasonably close to Seward Park and the Genesee dog park as well.

“Todd is awesome! He’s very detail oriented and listened to all of our tidbits about Ziggy before caring for him. He kept him active all day and spoiled him with the dog park, walks, and treats!”

“Ketaki was wonderful with our 10-month-old Labradoodle, Emmy! She treated her like her own — keeping her active, well-fed, and on a consistent schedule — and sent frequent photo/video updates that gave me real peace of mind as a first-time dog mom. Emmy stayed with Ketaki and her dog Coco for a week and came home happy and relaxed. I would absolutely trust Ketaki again and highly recommend her to anyone — I can already tell Emmy is excited for her next stay!”

Nadya D.

“Jacklyn was great! Sent lots of (very cute!) pictures, walked McCoy, and made sure he got along with her own dog. McCoy was always happy to see her (and her dog) when we dropped him off. Jacklyn was also very responsive to us (e.g. when we had to modify our arrival/pick up time) which made our lives very easy.”

Assaf Z.

“This was a great experience. I have difficulty finding places to board my dog because she is so shy. She did great here and I'm so thankful for all the updates and photos. I will definitely book here again!”

Jessica B.

“So glad to have found Quinten after our former Rover caretaker moved overseas. He clearly loves dogs and it shows in his gentleness and patience towards them. Like many of her kind, our French Bulldog can have bursts of high energy. Some Rover caretakers who are less experienced can be overwhelmed with her quirks, but Quinten was not only unfazed but seems to appreciate each dog’s unique personality. He sent plenty of videos and pictures during a short day care. We look forward to our next stay with him.”

Ryan L.

“Remy had a lot on fun with Christina and Kuma. Thank you for your hospitality. We really appreciate the care and attention you gave to our pup Remy.”

Sony S.

“Loki seemed to love staying with Marilyn and Travis and they were very communicative and sent us lots of photos and updates throughout the day. Highly recommend!”

About: I truly treat every pet like part of my family. I take the time to learn their routine and personality so they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I’m experienced with drop-in visits and walks, including feeding, potty breaks, playtime, and basic medication. I’m patient with puppies, gentle with senior pets, and always focused on their well-being. I send daily photos and videos, so you can see how happy your pet is while you’re away. I work from home every day, so pet care fits naturally into my routine. I have a flexible schedule and no problem adjusting my day around walks, feeding times, or check-ins. This allows me to give pets consistent attention and never rush their care. I’m attentive to behavior, energy levels, and any signs of stress. I also send regular photo and video updates so you can feel confident and at ease while you’re away. Your pet’s well-being and your peace of mind are my top priorities.

“Churro was feeling a little sick and Brent was incredibly kind to him. Will use again when we're in town!”

“Coco and I are so grateful to have found Rose!! Rose has been so gentle and sweet with Coco, embracing her into her home and family instantly, and meeting Coco where she's at. Rose is very communicative, flexible, and compassionate. Any dog will be lucky to be in her care.”

Hoyan W.

“Communication was always very quick, and we really appreciated the regular updates and care. She was a wonderful pet sitter, and we would definitely recommend her!”

Michi G.

“Shaneik does a fantastic job with our dog even though she’s got some separation anxiety issues. Shaneik makes sure she’s well taken care of and comfortable. She’s quickly become one of our top trusted sitters.”
