Doggy Day Care Maltaville

About: I have had pets since I was 4 years old! I love having pets in my home and making them a part of my family. My dog loves every dog she has ever met and loves to have a playmate! If you bring your pet to my house they will be treated like one of my family members! I work full time Monday-Friday 7:30-4, but my husband works from home and I am home all day during the weekends. My husband also loves dogs and has plenty of free time during his work day to take walks and give lots of love! I have a fenced in back yard with lots of room for running. We are on a cul de sac so there is very little traffic in my part of the neighborhood. My home also has several baby gates to make sure that your pet is safe if I have to leave them in the house for a short amount of time.

About: I have taken care of animals my whole life. Been boarding and running daycare full time for 10+ years. I have studied dog behaviors, CPR trained, used to train and have spent my life learning dogs. Part of my business is even making pet products like bow ties, bandanas, toys, healthy treats, signs and organic paw wax. I run my boarding and daycare full time. It is what i live every day. I board 7 days a week and run daycare Tues-Fri We have a large dog specific room which daycare is run out of (while boarding your dog can join daycare for no extra cost) this room has a dog door that leads to the large fenced in yard. Once daycare is complete or dog dependent, the door comes open and the pups join our pack (2) snuggling on the couch and begging in the kitchen 😉

“Jack has been great with my dog. she goes twice a week for daycare and she is always excited to get there and never wants to leave. Jack has been very flexible and professional!”

“Sierra took great care of my elderly dog. He was so content when I picked him up that he didn’t want to go home. She kept him separated from the other dogs, but in the same room, so he could see and interact with his new friends without any risk to him physically. My little potato really enjoyed his time there and I’ll be bringing him back!”

“These are the best people my dog has encountered. They answered me for a last minute request on Rover which was a huge blessing. My dog got the chance to experience life on a boat for a day. They interacted with her the entire day, and wore her out. They both gave my dog so much love and she needed it because we're going through a hard time with a temporary small living situation. They were very respectful of how I have raised my own dog and wanted to be positive that I was okay with having my dog going on a boat ride. My dog got to swim for the first time.”

“Lauren was the ideal person and place to leave our pup while we day tripped saratoga. Lauren promptly kept us updated with pictures etc. and provided our pup with a safe and stimulating home away from home. Thanks Lauren!!!”

“Taylor is such a life saver being able to watch Whisper on such a short notice. On top of that she was absolutely wonderful with him. She sent me pictures and videos of him running around and having a fantastic time. I would definitely recommend her and would have her watch Whisper again”

Thomas S.

“Carolyn watched my pup while I was in the area visiting with a friend. She was super easy to communicate with leading up to and during the the stay. Carolyn was so nice and made me feel comfortable leaving Charlie with her. I highly recommend her! Thanks Carolyn!”

Colleen L.

“Katie came through for me last minute and was absolutely wonderful with my two pups! I was in Albany for a family event and scrambling to find dog care after my original plans fell through. Thankfully, Katie was available and took great care of them for the day so I could enjoy time with my family stress-free. She was patient, attentive, and especially caring with my sweet 3-legged girl. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing they were in good hands. I’m very grateful for her help and would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and compassionate dog sitter!”

“David was able to book us within a few days notice and was very friendly and took great care of our dog. he communicated frequently and was able to work with Benders first time being at day care which I really appreciated. Would absolutely book again!”

Bushra M.

“We booked Anna last minute because we were taking a road trip out of town. Anna was so responsive and kept us up to date with pictures. Her family was all very nice and welcoming with us and our puppy lucky. Everything was so great but what I think sets Anna apart is her willingness to go above and beyond! We got printed photos of lucky’s time during his stay with Anna and a report card of how lucky did! Anna was really great and we can’t wait to use her again soon!”

Rebecca P.

“This guy is absolutely fantastic. I have a GSD who I used to have to pry away from me to get him to go to a kennel. He's had a total transformation since coming here. He plays all day, he's allowed to sleep in the bed if he wants to, and when he became anxious, Awoo gave him the extra attention he was looking for. Awoo's calm, gentle demeanor puts both of my dogs at ease. And he makes sure all of the pups have a good time here. I'm so glad to have found this place.”

Shannen R.

“Our Hoagie had a great time with Monique and Ace. The dogs got alot of playtime and Hoagie got his snuggles from Monique. Great furbaby sitter and she sent pictures of there time together. Will be back for more playdates for sure.”

Donna V.

“Gillian and Mitch and their four pups are absolutely amazing. They were so welcoming of Biscuit, who fit right in with the pack and had a blast. Came home completely tired and ready for dinner and sleep! Gillian kept me posted if his activities throughout the day. We will definitely go back to her.”

Jaya D.

“Jonesy had a fantastic couple of days - I highly recommend Julia. Great communication and they sent me pictures of the pup playing with all of his new friends. Can’t wait for Jones to go to Julia’s for daycare again on our next visit! Thank you for taking such great care of the little guy.”

Zachary D.

“Samantha was great with my 10 month old cardigan welsh corgi. Although she’s timid and more reserved when I’m not around, Samantha managed to get her out of her shell by the end of the day. Would highly recommend, I plan to be a repeat customer for sure!”

Marnie C.

“First time with Tatiana and couldn’t be happier. Will definitely be a repeat customer as she provides a great experience for our Stella❤️ Very accommodating as we had last minute change in drop off times. Highly recommended!”

Chris P.

“Mark & Sylva were great hosts for my dog when we needed a few hours of care while my son toured a nearby college. They were welcoming and kind and did a great job with her. I'd happily book again if we're in Troy in the future. Thank you!”

About: I’m new to dog sitting professionally, but caring for dogs is something I’ve done my entire life. I grew up around dogs and have hands-on experience with a variety of breeds, including breeding and raising them. This background has given me a strong understanding of dog behavior, needs, and how to handle different temperaments. I currently own a large Great Dane, so I’m very comfortable managing big, powerful dogs as well as smaller breeds. From feeding routines and exercise to recognizing signs of stress or illness, I’m confident in providing attentive, reliable care. My lifelong experience with animals allows me to create a safe, loving, and structured environment for every dog I care for. As a stay-at-home dog mom, caring for animals is already a natural part of my daily life. My schedule is centered around being home, which allows me to give pets the time, attention, and consistency they deserve. Because I’m not juggling a traditional 9–5, I’m able to provide flexible, reliable care—whether that means regular potty breaks, walks, playtime, or just being there to keep your pet company. Pet care fits perfectly into my routine, and I truly enjoy making animals feel safe, loved, and comfortable while their owners are away. When pets stay in my home, they become part of a calm, loving environment alongside my own dog, who is friendly, social, and used to being around other animals. I always take the time to introduce pets slowly and safely to make sure everyone feels comfortable and gets along well. Throughout their stay, I provide constant supervision, plenty of playtime, regular potty breaks, and a consistent routine. I also pay close attention to each pet’s personality—whether they love to play or prefer a more relaxed, quiet space—and adjust accordingly. If needed, I can separate pets to give them their own space and ensure everyone feels safe. My goal is to create a home-away-from-home where your pet feels secure, happy, and well cared for while also enjoying positive social interaction.
