Dog Boarding in Lapeer, NY

“Alex took such great care of my dog! He provided plenty of updates, including photos and messages, which gave me peace of mind while I was away. My dog came home happy, well-exercised, and clearly well-loved.”

“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.”

“This is our second time booking with Ashley. This time we had a second puppy. She is so great with communication and pictures. Ashley and her family truly seem to enjoy caring for dogs and it’s a great feeling to know that they are so well cared for while we are gone. The outdoor fenced in yard is a huge plus and the dogs get tons of play time. Her dogs are sweet and playful and our pups came home worn out from all the fun they had. She’s great with setting routines and somehow got our 4 month old puppy that was not quite housebroken through 4 days with zero accidents. Definitely recommend.”

“Chantal was amazing with my pets! She kept me updated the entire time and made me feel at ease while they were in her care. They came back happy and well taken care of. I would absolutely book with her again!”

“AMAZING sitter! Our girls were well taken care of and treated like they are at home. Received many pictures of them from Destiny and it made us feel so happy with leaving them for a week. Highly recommended!!”

“Charlie came back happy and healthy! Susan kept us well updated without needing to prompt, which was much appreciated while we were tied up on vacation it was nice to see he was being well cared for.”

Haley C.

“Did an amazing joke with taking care of my boy. I had to run out of town last minute so I am grateful for the quick response and willingness. I got some pictures and good communication”

About: Peppy Pet Care was launched at the end of 2018 in Ithaca, NY by myself and my animal-loving, entrepreneurial eleven year old daughter. Together we worked to provide outstanding pet sitting services to Ithaca and Lansing pet owners. Beginning in 2021, I started officially working on my own, as my daughter is busy pursuing other interests and activities. I treat pets in my care as I would my own. I am considerate, patient, reliable and caring and trustworthy. I treat each visit like an adventure and make it the warmest and most wonderful experience for each animal. I look forward to meeting you and your cat/dog and discussing your care needs. Thank you in advance for considering my services!!! I'm available both weekdays and weekends. Mornings, afternoons, evenings, as well as late night. I am typically in town during holidays and update my online calendar frequently. I provide care in client homes only at this time. I'm always vigilant when entering and exiting client homes, so as not to allow pets to slip out.

“I dropped my 1 year old St. Bernard off with Steve and Patty to care for before going on a 7 day vacation. Steve was very professional and organized. It was obvious when I arrived at their home that they love dogs! Steve explained the process of his boarding at the 'meet and greet', then told me what I needed to bring when I returned to drop my pup off. The entire process went smoothly. I received updates with pictures of my pet while I was on vacation. By the looks of the pictures I think my dog had a better vacation with Steve and Patty than I did on my trip!! She seemed happy to see me on pick-up day but also wanted to go back to play with her new friends. I am extremely happy with Steve and Patty's service.”

“During the introduction meeting Carolina and her family were all so welcoming and kind and Carolina was obviously on point professionally so I was completely comfortable with leaving Onyx with them. The appointment went very smoothly and I highly recommend her to anyone needing a dog-sitter.”

“Laura was a huge help this past weekend while we were visiting the Ithaca area, agreeing to watch our pup, Beau, somewhat last minute after our original pet sitter fell through. She took Beau on a hike and sent great pictures, which really made us feel at ease. When we came to pick him up he seemed very content and like he had had a great time. Thank you, Laura!”

“I was SO nervous to board our puppy - we had only had her for three weeks and are new dog owners. We had to make a last minute booking and were going to be away for ten days. Well, by the time we went to pick Winnie up we were worried she wouldn't want to come home with us. Mary worked with Winnie on basic commands, slowing down eating, had great suggestions for how to keep her occupied and even got her hooked on her homemade Pup Pops! We got photos, texts and videos every day which made it possible to relax and enjoy our vacation knowing that our baby was having a GREAT time at her new Auntie's house. Winnie got some really great socialization under the watchful eye of Mary and her husband. You can tell that they adore dogs and they know each dog's personality and quirks. I cannot thank them enough and will definitely be rebooking when we leave town again. Thank you, Mary!! :)”

“Andrea took great care of Izzi! She was communicative and clearly has a lot of experience with dogs. She was also very accommodating of my changing schedule.”

Molly H.

“Rose was great and very easy to deal with. She took great care of our Griff and he loved playing ball and was tired out. I would definetely reccommend her. Very friendly and appreciative and loves animals.”

About: Ever since I was 5 years old I was taught the responsibility and knowledge to handle dogs and animals of all varieties. I cared for parakeets, doves, fish, chinchilla, kids, many dogs both big and small, rescued and pure bred, and have had many canine friends over the years. I’ll treat your fur babies as lovingly as I treat mine! I don’t mind cleaning them, bathing, walking, feeding, exercising, or any other thing needed to their specifications. I will follow your instructions to the T. I have all the time to give them my full attention and love, and never less. I ensure you, that with me, you’re barking up the right tree! I am open any and all times, I’m looking for any jobs. I I’m not picky about my times and I’m more than happy to accommodate. I always do my very best to follow instructions as perfect as possible. I ask that you write me a note or send me a text telling me what you want me to do, so I can refer back to it.

“Monica was amazing with our dog! He came home happy, healthy, and was clearly well taken care of. He also had a great time with their dog. I will most definitely use her services again!”

Katie J.

“We dropped off our puppy for the first time ever when in Ithaca for my boyfriends Cornell reunion. Frankie was so well taken care of! Aaron and Kaylee were so responsive and sent us photos and updates each day. Frankie was exhausted when we picked him up and I’m sure was sad to leave his new friends behind. If we are ever in the area again, we would love to use them again!”

Olivia D.

“Amy did a fantastic job with our dog Summit! She welcomed him with open arms as if he was one of her own dogs! She kept us posted with his current status throughout the day including pictures, and was always responsive! 15/10 would book again with Amy!”

Mateo C.

“As always, our boys Richard and Philip had an incredible time staying with Robert and Eileen! They got lots of exercise in the big fenced yard, despite the tundra-like conditions, and we got detailed updates every day with cute photos and videos. Richard even learned to fetch! Robert and Eileen are gems, and I would leave them a 10 star review if I had the option!”

About: I've had dogs my entire life from puppies to rescues! I've also been a grooming salon manager in Ithaca for 7 years. I've cared for many different breeds, ages, temperaments, and quirks all dogs have and I love them all the same. I'm now a stay at home mom missing my daily dog visits! I have two dogs of my own Luke and Yoda. Luke is a 6 year old lab grey hound mix around 35 lbs. He is very loving and playful. Yoda is a 5 year old miniature fox terrier mix who has unlimited energy and is the sweetest snuggler. I'm willing to bathe and groom but it just depends on your dogs hair and size because I do not have a grooming area set up yet in my home, but I'm willing to talk about it! I am home all day with my baby and two dogs of my own so I can give the same care to some extra dogs! I treat every dog as if they are my own. I have lots of extra blankets to make sure they have there own space (i do recommend to bring some of there stuff like blankets, beds, and toys to make them more comfortable) and have extra room to separate them if they need to be alone. I will always make sure they are comfortable, happy, loved, and safe!
