Pet care experience
Hi, I'm Ali! I've been caring for dogs professionally full time since November 2018. I currently own and operate a small daycare for dogs under 40lbs in a separate building next to my home. We offer a homey environment with toys, couches, treats, a big yard to run around, 8-foot solid fencing, constant supervision and plenty of small friends! Our daycare only caters to dogs under 40lbs due to the space we have, however I'm happy to take care of larger dogs when taking a dog out for a walk or performing a check-in at your home. I typically have anywhere between 10-15 dogs with me on any given weekday for daycare. They are my regulars and are a fabulous group of pups. If your dog is ok with other dogs following a slow and proper introduction, I'd love to have them join our crew! We typically roam inside and outside throughout the day, with lots of toys to play with and brief breaks to practice some basic training skills, such as sit (without barking). I became involved in the "dog world" in 2012 when I fostered my first NYC Animal Control Center death row puppy. He was sick, scared, and was my responsibility until we could find him a forever home. After we took him in, we rescued five more dogs off of the 24-hour death row watch from the same shelter. Most of these dogs were bully breed or pit bull mixes and needed extreme love and patience for them to feel safe again. This experience has taught me how to work with dogs in THEIR language. Many people act as though dogs can tell what we're saying, but they rely mostly on body language, tone, and structure. Now, I'd love to meet your dog!
Reviews
Professional, super friendly and communicative. A really impressive facility too. My dogs were tired and happy!
Ali was great! She has a great set up and my pup Micah seemed to be comfortable with her even though he is a bit anxious. My only complaint is that she isn’t closer to me to use for daycare to socialize Micah with other dogs while I work. I would definitely use her again.
Ali did a great job taking care of my two dogs in her daycare. She sent me two videos, her daycare setup is amazing! My dogs were safe and cared for. Will definitely recommend Ali and I hope to use her daycare again!!
Ali was great! Took my Boston on not much notice on a holiday weekend. Sent me multiple vids and he had a blast. Definitely using her again in the near future.

Safety, trust & environment
Our yard is surrounded by 8-foot solid vinyl fencing and our indoor space is broken into smaller zones so play can be better managed. Leash and collar checks are performed before going on walks.

Information Ali B. would like to know about your pet
Any habits that could put a dog in danger are habits that help me care for them better! For instance - bolting for the door, eating objects, eating too quickly, food/toy aggression, etc.
A typical day
Depending on the environment (home, apartment, etc) we can throw a ball around the (fenced-in) yard, or take a nice stroll around the area. Or we can chill on the couch and relax if that's what the puppers would prefer!
